JOIN "THE REBUILT MAN" ON SKOOL - ▶️ www.skool.com/rebootyourlife   Listen to episode 319 of The Super Human Life w/ John Madsen - https://pod.link/1467356955/episode/NTY2NzJlYjYtZGY1ZS00NDUyLWFkMDctNWJmN2VkOTg5NzVi   Why do so many men quit porn… only to relapse weeks or months later?   In this powerful Q&A episode, Coach Frank Rich and Coach Arnold break down the real reason men stay stuck in the cycle of quitting, relapsing, and starting over.   The answer isn't more discipline. It isn't better blockers. And it isn't "trying harder."   It's identity.   In this episode, Frank and Arnold explain why porn addiction is not a quitting problem — it's a starting-over problem and how lasting freedom only happens when a man becomes someone who no longer wants porn.   This conversation dives deep into identity change, emotional regulation, clarity, visualization, and how to remove porn from your option list entirely, not through force, but through transformation.   If you've ever felt like freedom works for other men but not for you, this episode will challenge that belief at its core.   What You'll Learn in This Episode Why quitting porn isn't the real problem — starting again is   How "trying" keeps you stuck in your old identity   Why identity always precedes behavior   How to remove porn as an option instead of constantly resisting it   Why triggers never go away — but your response must change   How to build clarity around who you're becoming   Why visualization is essential to long-term freedom   How acting as the man you want to become rewires your behavior over time     Key Takeaways Most men relapse because they haven't changed who they believe they are   Language matters — "trying" reinforces the old identity   Porn-free men don't rely on willpower; they live from a different default   You must act as the porn-free man before it feels natural   Repetition creates identity, not motivation     Ready to Stop Fighting and Start Becoming Free?

JOIN "THE REBUILT MAN" ON SKOOL - ▶️ www.skool.com/rebootyourlife   In this episode of The Rebuilt Man Podcast, Coach Frank Rich exposes one of the most overlooked and most destructive forces keeping men trapped in porn addiction: shame.   Most men believe porn is the problem. Frank challenges that belief and reveals a deeper truth:   Porn isn't the prison. Shame is.   Shame keeps men stuck in secrecy, erodes confidence, destroys purpose, and fuels the very cycle they're trying to escape. In this episode, Frank breaks down the difference between guilt and shame, explains why shame paralyzes growth, and outlines practical steps men can take to begin rebuilding their identity and stepping into real freedom.   This is not a motivational talk. It's an identity-level reset.   The episode closes with an invitation for men who are done fighting alone to step into brotherhood, structure, and accountability inside the Rebuilt Man community.   What You'll Learn in This Episode Why most men stay addicted to porn not because they love it — but because they hate themselves   The critical difference between guilt ("I did something wrong") and shame ("I am something wrong")   How shame silently destroys confidence and leads to self-sabotage   Why shame thrives in secrecy and isolation   How chronic shame contributes to anxiety, emotional numbness, and burnout   Why you cannot build a powerful life from a collapsed identity   How to separate your identity from your behavior without excusing it   Why shame cannot survive exposure and dies in the presence of brotherhood   The difference between self-punishment and self-leadership   How freedom grows when a man lives toward purpose instead of perfection     Key Takeaway If shame were effective, you'd already be free.   Lasting freedom doesn't come from trying harder or hating yourself into change. It comes from rebuilding identity, stepping out of isolation, and learning how to lead yourself with structure and purpose.   Ready to Stop Fighting and Start Becoming Free?

JOIN "THE REBUILT MAN" ON SKOOL - ▶️ www.skool.com/rebootyourlife   As the year comes to a close, Coach Frank Rich challenges men to stop carrying the same struggles into another year by asking one critical question: Are you asking the right questions?   In this episode, Frank explains why most men fail to break free from porn addiction, not because they lack information or discipline, but because they're trying to solve a deep identity and emotional issue with surface-level behavior changes.   Rather than offering tactics or motivation, Frank walks through 10 powerful questions every man must ask himself heading into 2026. These questions expose the real reasons behind porn addiction, reveal how identity and emotional avoidance fuel relapse, and clarify the path toward lasting freedom.   Frank also introduces the Reboot Your Life system, a proven identity-based transformation framework that goes beyond sobriety to help men rebuild their structure, discipline, brotherhood, and purpose.   This episode is a must-listen for any man who's tired of starting over and ready to make a real decision heading into the new year.     Key Takeaways Most men stay stuck because they ask the wrong questions   Porn is a symptom, not the root problem   Addiction often serves a hidden emotional or psychological purpose Identity is revealed through private patterns, not public intentions   Relapse is usually driven by emotional avoidance, not desire   Beliefs always come before behavior—lies fuel the cycle   Isolation strengthens addiction; brotherhood breaks it   Structure protects against relapse and chaos feeds compulsion   Looking honestly at the future creates urgency for change   Questions create clarity, but action creates freedom       Ready to Stop Fighting and Start Becoming Free?

JOIN "THE REBUILT MAN" ON SKOOL - ▶️ www.skool.com/rebootyourlife   Most men believe a new year will finally be the turning point.   But January doesn't change habits. Hope doesn't break cycles. And motivation alone never leads to freedom.   In this powerful end-of-year callout episode, Coach Frank Rich delivers a direct, no-fluff wake-up call for men who say "this year will be different" — yet find themselves stuck in the same porn cycle year after year.   Frank exposes why New Year's resolutions fail, why men stay trapped despite knowing they have a problem, and the 10 biggest mistakes that keep men from ever experiencing real freedom.   This episode isn't about managing addiction. It's about rebuilding identity, creating structure, and stepping into brotherhood — the only path that produces lasting transformation.   If you're serious about change in 2026, this is the episode you can't ignore.   What You'll Learn in This Episode Why January gives men false hope — and how to use it correctly   The real reason over 80% of New Year's resolutions fail by February   Why knowing you have a porn problem isn't enough to change it   The difference between sobriety and true freedom   Why isolation fuels addiction — and how connection breaks it   How identity, not willpower, determines behavior   Why motivation always fades — and what replaces it   How to use relapse as feedback, not failure   Why information alone doesn't create transformation   What it actually costs to live porn-free — and why most men avoid paying it   The 10 Biggest Mistakes Men Make Trying to Quit Porn Believing a new year automatically creates a new man Planning endlessly instead of making a real decision Knowing it's a problem for years — and still not acting Trying to fight alone instead of entering brotherhood Chasing sobriety instead of pursuing freedom Attempting to stop behavior without rebuilding identity Relying on motivation instead of structure Treating relapse as failure instead of feedback Confusing information with transformation Wanting freedom without changing their life     Ready to Stop Fighting and Start Becoming Free?

JOIN "THE REBUILT MAN" ON SKOOL - ▶️ www.skool.com/rebootyourlife   In this powerful episode of The Rebuilt Man, Coach Frank Rich dismantles the traditional recovery model and exposes a truth most men have never been told:   If quitting porn feels hard, you're not pursuing freedom, you're pursuing sobriety.   Frank explains why most recovery systems keep men trapped in cycles of willpower, fear, shame, and relapse by focusing on behavior management instead of identity transformation. He draws a clear line between white-knuckled sobriety and true freedom, the kind that comes from becoming a man who no longer wants, needs, or desires porn.   This episode breaks down 12 core reasons why freedom always beats sobriety, and why real change only happens when a man stops trying to "manage addiction" and starts rebuilding who he is at his core.   If you're tired of counting days, fighting urges, and living in fear of relapse, this episode will reframe everything you think you know about recovery.     What You'll Learn in This Episode Why sobriety keeps porn at the center of your life and freedom removes it entirely   How identity always outperforms willpower and behavior management   The hidden reason avoiding temptation actually makes men weaker   Why urges aren't enemies, but signals pointing to deeper issues   How labels like "addict" shape your future and how to reclaim your identity   The difference between surviving addiction and stepping into purpose   Why freedom isn't something you do, it's who you become Key Takeaways If quitting porn feels hard, you're aiming for sobriety, not freedom   Sobriety manages behavior; freedom transforms identity   Willpower creates fragile men, alignment creates strong ones   Sobriety lives in fear of relapse; freedom lives in certainty   Avoidance is not strength, self-leadership is   Recovery keeps you inward-focused; freedom gives you a mission   Urges are signals, not commands   The name you accept determines the life you live Freedom is not abstinence, it's transformation   About the Reboot Your Life Philosophy   Frank also breaks down the philosophy behind Reboot Your Life, the identity-based system inside The Rebuilt Man. Instead of teaching men how to resist porn, the program helps men rebuild: Identity Discipline Brotherhood Purpose Self-leadership   The result isn't sobriety, it's freedom.

Episode Summary:In this powerful keynote-turned-podcast from Connect 2025, Marc Canton and Steve Saltzgiver tackle one of the most overlooked but financially devastating issues in fleet management: inadequate fleet replacement planning. Drawing from decades of experience and real-world consulting insights, Steve and Marc make a compelling case for why fleet managers must stop kicking the can down the road.They go beyond the typical capital vs. operating cost debate, diving into the hidden costs of poor replacement planning: technician shortages, downtime, liability risks, and loss of stakeholder trust. Using vivid analogies (like rental car companies and depreciation curves), they break down exactly how aging assets cripple performance, and what to do about it.This is a must-listen episode for government fleets, enterprise organizations, and anyone who feels stuck in the cycle of reactive maintenance. Key Takeaways:Good fleet replacement equals good fleet management. Full stop.Aging assets increase M&R costs, downtime, and liability risk, and reduce availability.The capital cost of an asset is NOT what you paid; it's the purchase price minus resale.Fleets with high replacement backlog (25%+) are in crisis and need immediate intervention.Leadership must be educated on the economics of replacement vs. repair.A strategic, data-backed plan gets stakeholders on board and secures funding. Speaker Bios:Steve Saltzgiver is an award-winning fleet executive and consultant with decades of leadership in both the public and private sectors. Known as the "Fleet Whisperer," Steve helps fleets transform their operations by aligning strategy with data-driven performance.Marc Canton is a fleet management strategist and speaker, passionate about connecting operational excellence to financial outcomes. At RTA, he works closely with government and enterprise fleets to implement impactful fleet success strategies.

Anger and rage can feel confusing, overwhelming, or even frightening — especially for ADHD women who were taught to suppress big emotions. In this episode, we will talk about why rage isn't something to get rid of, but something worth listening to. We'll look at how pushing anger away often makes it louder, and why rage tends to show up when boundaries are crossed or when we feel powerless to create change. We'll also explore a different way of relating to anger — one rooted in curiosity, compassion, and nervous system awareness — so rage can soften instead of escalating into overwhelm or shutdown. This episode isn't about forcing calm, staying positive, or bypassing hard feelings. It's about understanding what your rage is communicating and learning how to work with it in a way that brings you back into your power.   —CHAPTERS— 00:00 Introduction: Embracing Your Rage 01:09 Welcome to the Podcast 01:51 The Stigma Around Women's Anger 03:18 Understanding and Validating Your Anger 05:43 Differentiating Anger and Rage 10:21 Working with Your Anger 13:09 Finding Your Power and Voice 21:26 Radical Acceptance and Moving Forward 28:07 Conclusion and Resources

Are you and your partner stuck in the same arguments over and over? In this episode, which is the third in my new series called "Common Communication Patterns That Keep Couples Stuck — And How to Get Unstuck," I'll break down how rushing to get through a conflict might feel like progress, but is ultimately unproductive and keeps you stuck and frustrated.  I'll introduce my Heart-Centered Conflict Navigation Roadmap, an NVC-based approach that guides couples through conflict in a connecting, productive, and efficient way. You'll learn why slowing down, empathic understanding, and heart-centered communication are the keys to resolving conflict in a way that's collaborative, creative, and lasting. Plus, I'll share simple + practical tips you can start using today to move from "me vs. you" to "we're in this together," and why a few focused minutes of connection can save you hours of fruitless fighting. If you've ever thought, "We don't have time for this," or "We know each other's needs, but we're still stuck," this episode is for you.   Want to learn NVC with Ali?

Renee was hurting. After decades together, name-calling had become his weapon in every fight. Sharp, cutting words that left wounds. Every insult landed hard, igniting a rage she struggled to contain. Then one fight went too far, and Renee was ready to walk away. She thought her marriage was beyond saving. But then she stumbled on the Intimacy Skills, and everything shifted. Today, the name-calling is completely gone. He is kind and gentle, and calls just to say she's amazing. He treats her to breakfasts and beach walks and even made her long-time dream of owning a caravan a reality. What she thought was beyond saving is now everything she'd hoped for. If you're trapped in constant fighting with words that cut deep, Renee shares exactly how she turned it all around.

In this message, Pastor Noel traces Saul's dramatic encounter with Jesus in Acts 9 and what it reveals about misplaced confidence and genuine transformation. He explains how Saul, convinced he was defending God, was actually fighting against Him—until a disruptive moment forced him to confront the truth. The sermon highlights how Saul's blindness became the turning point that reshaped his identity and redirected his strengths toward a new purpose. It closes with a challenge for listeners to consider where they might be resisting change and to respond with the same decisive surrender Saul ultimately embraced.Subscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Download a copy of the Exodus JournalVisit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.comSubscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Visit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.com

This week at ease, Dave Henderson joins the table for a gentle, unexpected conversation about legacy, family, and all the invisible work that holds us up. Dave spent decades building medical offices across California, but really, he was building something deeper: trust, consistency, and a community within his business. In this episode, we talk about why jobs aren't forever, why success has to come from within, and how your job isn't your purpose. Dave opens up about carrying a family business, leading quietly, navigating early failures, and the moment he realized that real purpose isn't found in titles but in how you show up for people. We explore what it means to build a legacy you're proud of, how structure can be healing, and why the strongest foundations are often the ones no one sees. Dave also shares how he's learning to pass down more than just a business. He's passing down intention, integrity, and promise. It's an episode about presence, pressure, and choosing to lead with heart, even when no one's watching.

You asked your partner to do something, they said they'd do it… and they didn't. And now you're frustrated, wondering if your partner really cares or if you're asking for too much. If this dynamic feels familiar, you're not alone — and it's not because your partner is a jerk. In most relationships, missed follow-through has far more to do with unmet needs, unclear communication, or shifting capacity than a lack of love. This episode is Part 2 of my series, Common Communication Patterns That Keep Couples Stuck — and How to Get Unstuck. Today, we explore 5 compassionate reasons your partner might say "yes" and then not follow through — and how you can respond in ways that create closeness rather than conflict. You'll learn how to make requests that actually land, invite honest yes's and no's, and build (and rebuild!) agreements that support both people's needs. By the end, you'll walk away with practical tools, deeper understanding, and a new way of seeing your dynamic — so you can move out of frustration and into true partnership. And if this episode resonates, share it with your partner — it's a beautiful way to start the conversation together. Want to learn NVC with Ali?

In this episode, Kelly Chase discusses with Ashley of My Nourished Belly how she went from constantly struggling with stomach aches to turning her pain into a thriving business by creating a truly comprehensive healing protocol. Get ready to learn about the healing —one that touches everything from synthetic personal care products to nervous system regulation, and how supporting your "Neurotransmitter Factory" (your gut!) might require outside help. [7:34] Healing Required a Complete Reset "There was a point in time where I literally turned my entire life upside down in order to heal. So with the combination of kind of how I ate growing up, I always had stomach aches always." [14:39] Turning Pain Into Purpose "It's like the worst things end up being the best things in your life because if I didn't go through that, I literally wouldn't have this business." [20:46] Stop Fighting and Start Healing "My goal in line is that our body is so much smarter than we give it credit for, and so many times people want to like literally fight their body into healing and that is never, ever going to work." [28:13] The Phases in Healing "We're almost relearning literally the basics of what your body kind of needs just to start." [32:29] Beyond the Plate "It's not just as simple as, okay, eat a whole food diet -, make sure that your meat is grass-fed and organic and all the things. It's not that simple." [44:16] The Full Spectrum Approach "My protocol literally touches on every single thing. So like synthetic personal care, you know, household products, nervous system, the order in which we're doing things." [53:03] The Neurotransmitter Factory "A lot of that percentage is produced in the gut. So if it's not functioning properly, again, if they're severe symptoms, we need to bring in some kind of outside sources." [1:05:10] The Unexpected Strain  "There was a point where, you know, six, seven months into my pregnancy to, I'd say maybe five, six months postpartum, I was kind of just living on my savings."

Some hauntings don't start with a house. They start with a person. For her, the paranormal wasn't a curiosity — it was an inheritance. Her father was an empath who called his ability a “frequency you can't shut off.” When he died, that frequency only grew louder. Now, years later, the presence that's followed her since childhood has grown stronger — and bolder. It's not a ghost that lingers in corners. It's something that touches, speaks, and interferes. Her boyfriends all wake in the night, choking, pinned by invisible hands. She wakes with bruises and scratches she can't explain — some shaped like fingers, others like half-hands pressed against her skin. Lights turn on by themselves. Doors unlock. Her Chihuahua barks into corners until it trembles with exhaustion. And always, when the air turns cold and the walls begin to hum, the voice returns — whispering one phrase over and over: “Stop fighting it.” This isn't a story about belief — it's about endurance.mBecause sometimes the most terrifying hauntings don't want to scare you.

Send us a textIn this episode, I dive into one of the hardest, yet most transformative spiritual practices... Surrendering!I share what surrender really means, why it's not giving up, and how letting go can actually help life unfold more smoothly. Using examples from everyday life and my own journey, I explain how surrender is an active practice of trusting the process, easing tension, and listening to your inner guidance.Exploring how the ego resists uncertainty and control, and why letting go of the need to manage everything opens the door for clarity, opportunities, and unexpected solutions. I guide you through a reflective exercise with three key questions to help identify what you're trying to control, what it might feel like to hand it over, and how to trust the unknown. Together with a practical surrendering technique you can use anytime.If you've been pushing, overthinking, or trying to force life to unfold a certain way, and you are exhausted 'trying to make things happen', this episode is your guide. 

In this episode of Love Each Other Better, I'm kicking off a new series on the communication patterns that keep couples stuck — and how to get unstuck. We're starting with one of the most common: when one partner talks more and more to feel heard, while the other gets overwhelmed and pulls away to find relief. It's a loop that leaves both people feeling disconnected, even though both are trying. I'll introduce a powerful concept from Nonviolent Communication: interrupting for the sake of connection. It's a way to pause, reflect, and stay present without shutting each other down. We'll also talk about reflective listening, and how it can radically shift the energy of a conversation in an instant. If you've ever felt like you're talking past each other instead of with each other, this one's for you.  Want to learn NVC with Ali?

#654: Fights about money are common, but they're rarely about math. They're about power, shame, vulnerability, and trust. And no amount of data or fancy spreadsheets is going to fix it. What you need is a better system for fairness, more open communication, and a shared ambition. In this candid conversation with Heather and Doug Bonaparte, we explore how two partners rebuilt confidence, handled their six-figure student loans, and designed a rhythm for money talks that actually works. Together they share how early money stories, law school debt, and the Great Recession shaped their dynamic, plus the tools they used to find fairness at home and in their finances Key Takeaways Why 50/50 isn't always fair and how to do it better The small ritual that turned dreaded money talks into something they actually look forward to How borrowing a strategy from the office made household decisions way less stressful The surprising fix for resentment that had nothing to do with chores or budgeting Why tackling six-figure student loans together became a turning point in their relationship The mindset shift that helped them see debt not as a burden but as a shared opportunity Resources and Links Money Together, the book DoMoneyTogether.com, learn more about the book and project The Joint Account, weekly newsletter on joint finances at ReadTheJointAccount.com Fair Play by Eve Rodsky, a framework for dividing household responsibilities Share this episode with a friend, colleagues, and anyone who is part of a couple: https://affordanything.com/episode654 Learn more about your ad choices.

If you've ever felt like you're riding a menstrual cycle roller coaster of cravings, exhaustion, and mood swings– this conversation is for you.  In this episode, I'm joined by leading researcher and women's hormone expert Dr. Sarah E. Hill to unpack what's really going on in your body—and your brain—during your cycle.  Dr. Hill breaks down how shifting levels of progesterone and estrogen in the second half of your cycle can impact everything from your sleep and appetite to your mood and libido.  We also talk about how this becomes even more complex—and important to understand—during perimenopause, when hormone patterns start to change unpredictably.  You'll learn why traditional health advice often fails women during this phase of life, and what to do instead to actually support your body.  It's time to rethink your period, reclaim your energy, and finally feel in sync with your hormones! Dr. Sarah Hill Dr. Sarah E. Hill is a researcher and professor at TCU, lead science advisor for 28, and the author of The Period Brain and This Is Your Brain on Birth Control. Sarah's work has resulted in more than 80 research publications, with features in The New York Times, The Washington Post, Scientific American, The Economist, and on shows like Good Morning and Today. Sarah is a well-known speaker, consultant, and media expert in women's health, hormones, and sexual psychology. IN THIS EPISODE Understanding our hormone changes over the course of a cycle  Why cycle symptoms can be different during perimenopause  How past trauma impacts PMS and your stress response  What's really happening with your hormone levels in your cycle Managing your stress response system to feel safe in your body  The negative impacts stress has on your reproductive system The critical connection between your brain and sex hormones  About Dr. Sarah Hill's newest Book: The Period Brain  QUOTES “The week– or for some women, it's even the full two weeks– of the luteal phase can be a really challenging time emotionally as their body is struggling to keep up with those wild swings and hormones. But then also as you go into perimenopause, you're going through a period of intense hormonal change, and unlike what goes on across a regular cycle, it's unpredictable.” “Women are twice as likely as men to have mental health-related illnesses. They're more than twice as likely as men to be diagnosed with anxiety. They're more likely to experience burnout in the workplace. I mean, the list goes on, and it's because there's way too much that's expected of us. And one thing that women don't recognize about it is that in addition to this being bad for things like cardiovascular health… it can also prevent you from even producing sex hormones.” “A big part of The Period Brain is first, just really giving women a roadmap to the second half of their cycle, since it's not something that's really talked about.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Preorder the Perimenopause Revolution and get your VIP ticket to the Perimenopause Solution event http://hayh.site/pr_bl_ap-snyder_a_opt Use code ENERGIZED and get 10% off on your first Troscriptions order http://troscriptions.com/ENERGIZED Order Dr. Sarah Hill's Book: The Period Brain Dr. Sarah Hill's Website Dr. Hill's Instagram Dr. Hill's Facebook RELATED EPISODES  686: Your Second Puberty Explained: What's Really Happening to Your Body in Perimenopause  #648: This Changes Everything: The Perimenopause Revolution Every Woman Needs Now #622: How to Feel Prepared for the Massive Hormone Shifts in Midlife with Dr. Taz Bhatia #510: Need to Calm The Estrogen Drama Causing Period Problems?

What if generosity isn't something we have to teach or force — but something we're born with? In this special episode honoring the birthday of Marshall Rosenberg, the founder of Nonviolent Communication (NVC), I share a personal story about my 5-year-old daughter — and how her spontaneous, joyful act of giving reminded me of one of Marshall's most powerful teachings: “What I want in my life is compassion — a flow between myself and others based on a mutual giving from the heart.” We'll explore: Why generous giving flows naturally when we feel connected and free How this principle applies not just to parenting, but to romantic relationships What gets in the way of that generosity in couples — and how NVC can help restore it A simple question to reflect on in your own relationship today Plus, I'll share how you and your partner can go deeper with NVC through my 9-Week Private Coaching Program for Couples: Stop Fighting (without stuffing your feelings or sacrificing your needs) If you're longing for more joy and spontaneous generosity in your relationship — this one's for you.

Brendon Burchard will be at my life-changing annual event, The Summit of Greatness, happening September 12 & 13, 2025. Get your ticket today!Check out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1820"If you're broke, you're fighting for survival. If you're gonna break through, you're fighting for somebody else." - Brendon BurchardPicture this: Brendon Burchard looks over at the woman he loves, and she's literally sleeping under a pile of his unpaid bills. That image broke something open in him. For weeks, he'd been pretending to write, faking productivity while drowning in financial pressure. But seeing her carry the weight of his struggles? That night changed everything. He wrote for 18 straight days, emerging with a book that hit number one on Amazon and launched an empire of courses, seminars, and millions of copies sold. The breakthrough didn't come from willpower or motivation—it came from finding someone to fight for beyond himself.What Brendon discovered in that moment rewrites everything we think we know about pushing through obstacles. He reveals why self-doubt isn't actually the enemy (it's what you do when doubt shows up that matters), and breaks down the ZAPS cycle that keeps us stuck—how we zoom in on problems, attach our identity to failures, then punish ourselves into paralysis. This isn't about positive thinking or grinding harder. It's about the fundamental shift from fighting for survival to fighting for service, and why that transition unlocks a level of performance most people never access.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter
