| 0:00.0 | All right, everybody. Welcome back to another edition of the Untitled Jeff Gluck podcast. |
| 0:23.7 | I'm your host Jeff Gluck, and today it's one of the driven life podcasts where we are talking |
| 0:28.8 | about motivation and inspiration for things that you could hopefully apply to your personal life. |
| 0:34.6 | It's a new series I'm doing this year where I'm talking to people from racing |
| 0:38.0 | about successful habits or things they've learned that could help you. And one of those things |
