About this listen

Having served at the highest levels of the U.S. Army Special Operations in 2nd Ranger Battalion, Jeff Smith came to understand the relationship between discipline, strategic action, and success. However, the transition back to civilian life - and civilian work - introduced Jeff to the unhappy, sedated daily life of the average corporate slave. So, he found a way to achieve on his own terms. Jeff is now a successful entrepreneur with more than a decade of real estate investing experience along with owning a thriving fitness and performance business. And he wants to help you blow past “average” and build your own definition of success in business, in life, and within your family, too.
