Summary
Join Nick Lamagna on The A Game Podcast: Real Estate Investing for Entrepreneurs with our guest Mike Ochsner, also known as "Ox" - former MMA fighter from the days when it was still called NHB, elite firearms trainer for Special Forces, three-time bestselling author, competitive shooter, and high-level real estate investor who once owned the original domain iBuyHouses.com!
After 15 concussions left him with vertigo, chronic pain, focus issues and sleep problems that traditional medicine couldn't fix, Mike went deep into applied neuroscience and discovered that simple vision and balance drills could do in 20 minutes what months of rehab couldn't. After a decade working with over a thousand high performers, he developed the Vision Training Method and has been helping athletes, veterans, entrepreneurs and real estate investors eliminate brain fog, crush self-sabotage and perform at their peak ever since.
He is the author of the bestselling book Unleash ADHD as Your $6 Million Superpower and creator of the free Peak Brain Reboot Workshop, and he is here to show you how to make your brain work for you - not against you.
Whether you're an investor, entrepreneur, or athlete, this episode is packed with powerful insights on:
✅ Why smart people make terrible decisions under stress and how to fix it fast
✅ A simple breathing technique that resets your nervous system in under 60 seconds
✅ Why ADHD is actually a superpower in sales and entrepreneurship
✅ The foods silently destroying your focus and decision making every day
✅ How to stop self-sabotage before it costs you the win + more
A must listen episode you will not want to miss!
