The One More Habit That Builds Leaders
Send us Fan Mail
Most people aren’t losing because they lack talent. They’re losing because they stop one step early.
We dig into the “Power of One More” mindset inspired by Ed Mylett’s book, and we get painfully practical about what “one more” really looks like in real life. One more follow-up when you feel tired. One more rep when your body is done. One more uncomfortable decision when your brain begs for the easy route. I share how this basic idea reshaped how I think about leadership development, personal growth, and building a company that can scale without drifting into “good enough.”
We also talk about the hidden danger of success: comfort. When things are going well, standards can slip, hard conversations get avoided, and the habits that built the momentum quietly disappear. That’s when we have to get honest and ask the questions that actually change outcomes: Where am I stopping short? Where am I choosing comfort over growth? What corners am I cutting that I’m pretending don’t matter?
Then we bring it into the day-to-day of business leadership with clear examples for sales teams, leadership teams, and operations: knock one more door, handle one more objection, hold the standard one more time, make one more system improvement, capture one more training video, raise the bar without chasing perfection. The point is staying sharp, building discipline in small moments, and becoming the person who can lead at the level you say you want.
If this hits you, subscribe, share it with someone on your team, and leave a review so more leaders find the “one more” challenge. Where do you need to do one more today?
