All Things Performance

One of the more nostalgic podcasts for me is with today's guest, Richard Lucero.

We were teammates back in 2002 at Northern Arizona University, and we both grew up on the South Side.

Rich has an extensive background with sports, specifically the game of football. He was fortunate enough to play the game he loved through college, and a few years professionally.

Football has allowed him to live across the country, meet others, and travel to places he would have never imagined.

Rich played collegiate football with the University of Umass Amherst, and also at Northern Arizona University. He played the position of Quarterback, and did so for nearly 20 years.

He has his Masters in Leadership from Grand Canyon University. For the past 15 years, he has been employed at GCU, and has held many leadership titles.

We hit on:

*How no one gives you ANYTHING

*Why YOUR mindset is the only one that matters

*A tribute to his father

*How you "can" teach HEART

*Richard's definition of "the grind"

*Why the PATHWAY changes, but the GOAL does not

*Jake Plummer's advice to a young Richard Lucero

*The importance of good coaches

*Growing up in South Phoenix

*How a coach told him he would NEVER play Quarterback (at age 8)

*Why nepotism is incredibly hard to beat

*The various things you battle as an athlete

*AND MUCH MORE

Should your young Athlete be competing in their sport all year?

He hits on the following points:

*How The Medical World Does It…Develop Early-Specialize Later

*Why There is Never A Wrong Time To Develop an Athlete

*How Early Specialization "Robs" You of Connective Brain Power
