Oh, man, it's so awesome to be here.

My pleasure.

Well, here's how they, people need to apply that.

So once again, and I'm so glad that you brought up the point that, well, I may use basketball examples because that's where I've spent most of my life.

Folks need to take these and figure out how they can, you know, apply them to their situation.

So step number one is figure out what, what does winning look like to you or what does success look like to you?

Again, this could be in your marriage.

This could be, you know, in your business, this could be for something you're doing in your community, but figure out what does winning look like.

Now, of course, in the game of basketball, which Simon Sinek has said is a finite game, and I'm a big fan of Simon's work, is a finite game.

We have unanimously around the globe agreed that the team with the most points on the scoreboard when the final buzzer goes off is the winner.

Life, relationships, business, it's a little more esoteric.

It's not as clear.

How you might define winning in business might be slightly different than maybe one of your friends or colleagues.

But that doesn't matter.

You just have to get crystal clear on what winning looks like to you.

And then you need to figure out what are the measurable building blocks, the bricks, if you will, that will allow me to reach that goal.

And then once you have that North Star, take your eyes off of it and just focus on the bricks.

Think about a GPS, which most people...

need to navigate the world these days.

I don't know how I survived without one beforehand.
