Ep. 250 already! WOW-O-WOW. What happens if you’ve achieved greatness in one career, retire, and then embark on a new journey? Not always as easy as it sounds but one that is often necessary when going into your “2nd curve” in life. Does leaving one career for another career mean your pursuit of greatness is complete…or just beginning?
On today’s IMPACT SHOW, future NFL Hall-of-Fame QB Drew Brees talks about “chasing greatness” in his new walks of life: business, broadcasting, philanthropy, and even being a father. While Drew & NBC parted ways just days after this recording, this does not mean his broadcast days are over. As a matter of fact, they may be just beginning. Listen in to hear his thoughts, mentality, and what’s exciting him in his post-football career.
Specifically, here is what Drew and I talk about on the Show:
The “rookie mentality” when in a new career and how this can be an advantage.
Drew’s definition of greatness and its key elements.
Setting daily “non-negotiables” and making sure you stick by them during the difficult times in life.
Paralysis by Analysis and why it’s important to get into a “flow” state.
How to stay in the moment when there is so much busy-ness and chaos going on.
What’s next for Drew?
