This week Andrew talks with 2x World Series Champion & 2016 World Series MVP Ben Zobrist. In 2000, Ben graduated high school and thought his baseball career was over.  Then, he dipped into his birthday money for $50 to attend a college tryout where he caught the attention of a college coach and landed a scholarship. He went on to become a 3x MLB All-Star and led both the Kansas City Royals & Chicago Cubs to historic World Series titles.  One of the most versatile & adaptable players of all-time, Ben played SS, 1B, 2B, 3B, & all 3 outfield positions. In this conversation, Andrew asks Ben about the mindsets, techniques, & philosophies that powered his journey into the baseball history books. Ben shares actionable ideas on increasing your self-belief, improving your focus, & maximizing your value by becoming more versatile. This conversation is filled with powerful life & career lessons that will help you achieve championship-level success in anything.
