Summary

This week’s conversation is with Ty Murray, one of the most accomplished Roughstock athletes of all time. Having earned a record-setting seven All-Around World Championships, Ty has rightfully earned his nickname in the industry as “King of the Cowboys”.

Throughout his illustrious career, Ty competed in three of the rodeo’s most risky and dangerous events – bareback, saddle bronc, and bull riding – dominating all three “rough-stock” disciplines with the singular heart of a champion.

At the age of 23, Ty became the youngest millionaire in rodeo history, and eight years later was inducted into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame.

Ty has also been a trailblazer for the sport behind the scenes – in 1992 he became a founding member of the Professional Bull Riders (PBR), which sought mainstream attention for “America’s original extreme sport.”

Ty is epic and so is this conversation – I can’t wait for you to hear his story and learn from a human who has dedicated his life towards exploring the upper reaches of his potential.

He has a very clear approach to success, a deep love for what he does and the people in his life, and a strong purpose. After this conversation, I hope you’ll be able to tap into your inner cowboy as well.

0:05.3	You know, bull riding is not a thing that you put your toe in water and kind of say,
0:08.4	yeah, how's it feel? You know what I mean? Like you, it's a thing where when I try to explain
0:13.7	it to people because sometimes people will say, well, car racing is dangerous or downhill speed
0:17.4	schemes dangerous. Or you know, there's these other things that are dangerous. I'm like,
0:20.4	absolutely. I said, but the difference is like if you're going to use car racing as an example,
0:25.6	you're still the one with your foot on the throttle. When you're talking about bull riding,
0:30.2	when you nod your head and that gate opens, the bull has the throttle and you've got to be able
0:35.1	to decide when and if he pushes the throttle to the max, are you going to go there?
0:48.5	All right, welcome back or welcome to the Finding Mastery podcast. I'm Dr. Michael Jervet
0:54.5	and by trade and training a sport and performance psychologist. Now, the whole idea behind this
0:59.6	podcast and these conversations is to pull back the curtain to better understand how some of
1:06.1	the most extraordinary people on the planet organize their inner life. How did they use their
1:12.0	mind to pursue their potential? How did they work inside and build communities toward a shared
1:17.7	aim? Finding Mastery is brought to you by Paleo Valley. When it comes to getting your nutrition
1:23.8	right, it's important not only to focus on your main meals, but also the snacks you're using to
1:29.2	fuel up during those on the go moments as well. That's why I've been loving Paleo Valley's super
1:34.8	food bars. Unlike many other health food bars on the market, which tend to be loaded with refined
1:40.4	sugars, artificial sweeteners or sugar alcohols, Paleo Valley's super food bars are sourced from
1:46.1	high quality certified organic ingredients while avoiding sugars made with 10 powerful super foods
1:52.0	like spirulina, clorella, turmeric, blueberry, and ginger, you can be confident that you're getting
1:58.7	a diverse spectrum of nutrients and enzymes in each bar. Plus, they contain MCT oil from organic
