About this listen
In this episode, we discuss how to define "competitive," and explore how to have a healthy relationship with success. Ashton shares his unique trick on "leveling up", how to leverage failure, and how he applies an athlete's mindset to all areas of life.
Key Takeaways:
- Competitiveness isn't about winning - it's about facing challenges head on and striving for personal growth.
- Success is best measured by your own progress, specifically - the rate of progress.
- Embracing failure is how to move past it.
- The athlete mindset isn't limited to sports - it’s a tool for navigating all aspects of life.
- Surrounding yourself with a supportive community is key to achieving personal goals.
