Suck Less Today with Brian Chontosh May 12, 2018

Show notes

Ultra Adventurer and leadership coach, Brian Chontosh, and his friend TJ Murphy join The Nation for a thought-provoking discussion on endurance events:

Sometimes you mind has a mind of its own & can trick you
Your mind is always looking for comfort and satisfaction
Don't be reckless
Need to find your reason to participate - not for someone else, not for social media, it needs to be personal
Don't go into a race thinking you won't think about quiting
Predict the Future
- Recognize it / witness it
- Accept it
- Put a time limit on it
"Don't not do now what you're going to regret later"
How do you lead a team from point A to point B?
