Hello and welcome to another episode of Chasing Excellence.

Every week on the show, dedicate some time to exploring how we can live a life of better health and increased fulfillment.

We answer your questions about the five factors of health.

Dive deep on living a life of excellence and

explore the strategies and frameworks to help us chase, but truly matters. Thank you so

much as always for tuning into the show. My name is Patrick Cummings. I am here by

myself for a very quick introduction to the episode this week.

We have for you, Book Club Number 1, Ben and I finally got together.

And talked about Book Club Number 1, which is something we launched in the premium membership a couple months ago.

Got a little delayed, a little waylaid, but we got to it eventually book club number one.

The choice was Patrick Lincioni's the ideal team Player, which talks about the three virtues of a great, or an ideal team player, humility, hunger, and people-smarts.

Ben and I talked about the three big things that I pulled out of this book, which is how do we think about humility and hunger and people smarts outside of the context of work.

It's one of the big things we wanted to explore in this book club.

The second thing is the role that insecurity plays in and how and wherever we are weakest or when we are weak across hunger, humility, and people smarts.

And the third thing is something that I started to think about as healthy hunger, which is in the work context bringing it back to work.

How do we make sure that we are hungry and all the benefits of being a hungry team player without it leading to burn out and overwhelm and us not doing a

particularly good job of whatever it is we are there to do. The first two of

those bullet points how do we bring it out of the office and into the real world,

and the role that insecurity plays is what you will hear or watch. In this here episode,

if you would like that third bullet point if you would like to hear us

continue to talk about the role of healthy hunger well you'll have to jump into the premium

membership which you can get W.W. chasing excellence
