Bars: I'll do it by myself ("Handsome", by Dave East) May 06, 2020

Show notes

As hungry and motivated as you think you are, those around you can be uninspiring, lazy and not willing to attack. This is most likely frustrating to you - it will, and can, cause you to spend too much time complaining and whining about how nobody is as hungry as you. In Dave East's new song 'Handsome", he explains a different philosophy. The mindset of going out to get it, by yourself, regardless of who's with you. Take a listen. #BARS
