big names like Tiger Woods, Oprah Winfrey, and Richard Branson achieve their goals? Well,

0:27.7

lucky for you, I had an epic conversation about this back in episode 179 with Dr. Jeff Spencer,

0:34.1

one of the world's leading experts on elite performance. Jeff is a former

0:38.9

Olympic cyclist and a life coach whose nickname is the Cornerman because he's well known for

0:44.3

working with famous athletes, leaders, and CEOs to level up their performance. Jeff likes to say

0:49.7

that success is not just about talent. It is both a path and a process. And there are patterns and

1:49.3

trade that you use to help winners get to the top and stay on top. But before we do that, I did want to

1:54.2

learn more about your personal journey. So let's go back to when you were seven years old. You had a natural talent for riding a bike and you knew

2:01.4

you were going to be an Olympian. And by age 11, you made a deal with yourself that you would

2:06.3

work for the next 10 years to accomplish the goal of being an Olympic cyclist. You ended up achieving
