0:00.0 | What's up guys? So today on the podcast, we have Joe Dicenna. He is the founder of the Spartan race, and he's on the podcast with us today. Very interesting dude. It's a bit of a shorter one, so it's about 30 minutes. But inside that 30 minutes, there's a lot of good stuff, especially, you know, we talk a lot about his sort of mindset towards, mainly towards business and some of the things he's gotten into. But when you listen to it and we kind of touch on this, you could apply that mindset towards just about anything, everything from jiu-jitsu to, I mean, just anything. If you're on my email list, it's funny how this works out. We'll probably turn this into a podcast later on. If you're on my email list this morning I sent out one on the idea that |
0:39.6 | perfection is kind of an enemy you know and that was a that's one of the things I was like |
0:43.4 | it was kind of almost perfect for the for the podcast because that was always already |
0:47.6 | stewing in my brain and then when I got on the podcast with Eugene and Joe it was the same |
0:52.2 | thing right we talked much a lot about that. |
0:55.5 | So anyway, I won't talk anymore. |
0:56.9 | We'll get right into the podcast. |
1:00.4 | Big thanks to our sponsors, Charlotte's Web, my favorite CBD oil. |
1:05.9 | I talked about it the other day, you know, I've tried a lot of different CBD oils. |
1:11.1 | Again, I always say this because there's so many people online telling you what to do, |
1:15.1 | what to take, what to ever, you know, and again, I don't, everything that I share comes from a place of like this works for me, right? And take it and see what it works for you, whether it's a |
1:18.7 | technique. I'm sharing a technique because it worked for me, it worked for one of my students. |
1:22.9 | If I give you an idea in one of my like Q&A videos or podcast episodes. |
1:30.9 | I'm giving it to you so you can just take it and maybe try that idea, see how it works for you. |
1:32.4 | See if you find it resourceful. |
1:37.8 | With Charles Webb, I share them, their products on the podcast for that same reason. It's simply just it works for me and I'm extending it to you and see how it works for you. |
1:43.4 | You know, a lot of times with CBD oils, there seems to be some people seem to, it works |
1:48.5 | great for, and then some people, you know, not so much for. |
1:50.5 | So what I tend to tell people is just try it out and see how it works for you, try it out |
1:53.4 | for a month and see if you notice a difference. |
1:55.4 | If you want to check out any of Charlott's Web's products, again, I'm a big fan of them because they are third-party tested. So whatever, you know, CBD is listed on that packaging is what you're going to get. They did a study. I think it was Penn State, did a study. It was like 70% of CBD products that they tested were not accurate. They either had too much CBD or too little CBD than what was listed on the bottle or the package. |
2:20.9 | And in some cases, they had a lot of other compounds that were not listed. |
