In this 1:1 episode, I’m sharing a short excerpt from one of the chapters in my upcoming book Habits of High Performers—a section called Do The Work.

It’s a small glimpse into the mindset that high performers rely on when motivation runs out and the real work begins.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why ultra-endurance athlete Dean Karnazes is the definition of discipline—and how he built it
• The 4 mental habits Dean uses to conquer physical and emotional limits
• What it really means to focus on the next step, not the finish line
• Why high performers always play the long game—and how you can too

This is the first time I’ve shared any part of the book publicly—and I’m excited for you to hear it.

Quick note: the podcast will be taking a short break as I head to South Africa with Caroline and Finn for some much-needed time offline. But I’ll be back soon—energised and ready to go.

If this resonates, be sure to pre-order Habits of High Performers at thehabitbook.com.
