Is it politics, sports, gossip, or endless scrolling on your phone? Most of us are willing participants in our own distractions—and those distractions are quietly robbing us of the life we’re capable of living. In this episode, I’m getting real about what it takes to win: the ability to cut through the noise, become obsessively focused, and embrace the price you’ll have to pay along the way. I’ll walk you through why true obsession feels different—it pulls you away from everything else in your life because it consumes your thoughts, your energy, and your actions. If you’re not being distracted by your obsession, then you’re not obsessed enough. I share stories from my own life, including how I went from knowing nothing about my dad’s cancer diagnosis to becoming nearly an expert through sheer immersion. That same kind of laser focus is available to you—and it can transform any area of your life. But focus alone isn’t enough. You’ve got to accept the suffering and sacrifice that come with chasing something great. Too often, people treat setbacks and discomfort as signs they’re on the wrong path. I’ll show you why it’s actually the opposite—why suffering is proof you’re growing, and why sacrifice is a down payment on your dream. The real danger isn’t paying the price; it’s paying the bigger price of regret when you never go after it at all. In this conversation, I give you practical tools to stop negotiating the price in your head and start seeing your dream as worth it. Because when you stop fixating on the cost and start focusing on the worth, everything changes. Your energy shifts. Your strategy sharpens. And your story becomes one worth living. Key Takeaways: - Why distractions are the greatest enemy to your dreams - The difference between being interested and being obsessed - How to reframe suffering and sacrifice as signs of progress - Why negotiating the “cost” of your dream keeps you stuck - The mindset shift from cost to worth that frees you to execute Distractions steal your destiny. Obsession delivers it. It’s time to choose focus, pay the price, and claim the life you were born to live. Max out.
