Data shows that most high-performers spend six months to three years "watching from the sidelines" before they are ready to commit to deep work. In this episode, David and Nick break down the "Threshold of Readiness" and expose the survival games that keep us stuck in a cycle of "fine".

If you feel like you are "holding the board on the rack" instead of catching the wave, this conversation will help you identify the "Secret Plan" your ego is using to keep you safe—and why that safety is actually the most exhausting thing you’ve ever done.

In This Episode, You'll Hear About:

• The Readiness Spectrum: Why a level 7 pain isn't enough to change your life, and what actually happens when you hit a level 10 "Uncle" moment.
• The Secret Plan: Revealing the unconscious strategies we use to dominate our surroundings to feel safe.
• The Second Hardest Thing: Why the work of Aligned Living is actually easier than the "hardest thing" you are currently doing: surviving a misaligned life.
• Disappearing into Mastery: Moving from the "Proving Grounds" of trying to figure things out to the "Embodiment" where the middleman disappears.
• The 20-Year Surfboard: A metaphor for complacency and the moment you realize your "reliable" life is actually holding you back from a new level of aliveness.
