0:10.9

What's up everyone? Thank you so much for tuning in. This is a special edition of the School of

0:15.8

Greatness coming out on a Tuesday. We usually come out on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, but today is a very

0:21.7

special day. It's October 27th, 2015. It's the launch of my book, the School of Greatness. That's right. I haven't seen it yet in

0:32.6

stores. I'm going to go today to the Barnes and Noble in Times Square at one o'clock and see it for the first

0:41.2

time. But I've been seeing photos of people who got it the day prior. It was in bookstores. It's been in

0:47.1

Canada stores. It's been in Asia and it's been in local stores as of yesterday. So I'm going to go see it for the

0:54.5

first time, see my eight year dream come true. And it all started with a vision. There was zero evidence that I was able to

1:03.0

build a business to get off my sister's couch to go move to New York City and make the USA Handball team. There was no

1:11.2

evidence. I was able to create a big brand. Evidence, I was going to be able to create a podcast like this. Evidence, I'd be able to

1:19.4

connect with some of the most inspiring, powerful people in the world. There was zero evidence. This was going to happen

eight years ago when I was sleeping on my sister's couch with a broken wrist and a huge cast on with no college

1:32.1

believe it is powerful. And if you believe in yourself and taking daily actions to getting to that vision, it may take eight years

to get to the place you want to be. It may take three months. But whatever you got to do, you've got to be committed to that vision and taking the steps

give you the eight principles on how to follow those steps and get to the end result you want to be in, whether that's in your

2:22.4

business, your relationships, your health, your life, your fitness, your spirituality. I show you the way from the lessons I've learned from all these great

2:31.8

mentors I've had on the podcast and from my experiences and sports and business over the years. Again, all the lessons I've learned I put it

2:40.0

into practical advice, strategies and exercises for you to get incredible results. And my request is simple. I'm asking you to pick up
