Summary
When you know what you should do, what stops you from actually doing it?
In other words, how do we get out of our own way?
If you're ready to level up your game, blast through roadblocks and become the legend you're truly meant to be, you're in the right place.
Returning to the show today is my friend David Nurse, an NBA Mindset Coach, best-selling author, podcaster and motivational speaker.
A former pro basketball player and coach for the Brooklyn Nets, David has spent the last 15 years transforming the way hundreds of NBA stars play on the court, as well as coaching hundreds of corporate executives to rock the boardroom.

- How to free yourself from psychological prisons and illusions, like social media
- The importance of defining a simple mission statement for your own life
- How to harness the goodness in yourself and use your gifts to serve others
- Improving your ability to focus and get into the flow state
- Time management versus attention management
- How to successfully overcome your personal roadblocks and take action
- And tons more…
