You'll never miss an episode that way. Now on with the show. Welcome back to the show, everybody. So grateful you've decided to join me again here this week. And this week I have a question for you. Do you play Hurt? Because I think playing hurt is one of the invisible skills of all the great ones.

And if you think back in your lifetime, the people that you've been the most, you know, emotional about when you've watched them perform in sports or life in business, they are overcoming some pain they were in currently at the time, typically in sports. It's some type of an injury that they have. And so I ask you, can you play Hurt? Because I think that's the great separator in life and in business, is that The great ones are able to perform even when they're not at their best, even when they're hurt, even when they're wounded, even When they're down.

And average ordinary people succumb to the injury, succumb to the pain. The down cycle in their life. You know, I really believe the separator in life is not what you do on the days where you're feeling great. You're feeling healthy, you're feeling emotionally strong, everything's going your way. Everybody performs well on those days. It's what do you do on the days that you don't feel that way? In sports, especially. The m greatest moments of my lifetime in sports, we'll talk about them in a minute, have been watching athletes perform
