Welcome to the Game Change Your Life podcast with Dave Anderson.

Now, here's Dave with an intentional mindset minute.

Welcome to the Game Changer Life. I'm Dave Anderson with another intentional mindset

minute, where I share quick hits from my latest books, intentional mindset, and elevate

your excellence. We post them on Fridays to help you think right, do right, get better, and become

more. Here is the topic, complacent. Complacent is a word that's really one of the more

widely misused and poorly defined words in performance vocabulary.

Many people think it means lazy, when it actually is defined as, quote, being calmly content and smugly self-satisfied.

You see, it's quite common to see someone working long hours, which is not lazy, but being so calmly content with

their results, they don't change anything, or try anything new, or hold themselves or others accountable

and more. So at the end of the day, complacency isn't about the time you put in, but what you put

into the time. Do you do the hard stuff? Do you do it well, often, and with excellence, and do you continue to play to win when you're winning? Those are signs of personal hunger that combats complacency and prevents it from freezing you in a comfort zone and calcifying you in a mold. Thank you.
