In this interview, I talk with my cousin, McLeod Bethel-Thompson, about his dream to become a professional Football player.  He has played in the AFL, NFL, and CFL.  He really shows what it takes to follow a dream.  We talked about how to stay motivated, becoming the person you want to be, and growth mindset.  

An “almost” complete list of what we talked about:

• How he stuck with football, even through tough times
• How to turn your journey from selfish to selfless
• How to chisel away the granite to sculpt the person you want to be
• Getting into a growth mindset
• How to find joy in the process and training, and not getting hung up on the end result
• Don’t compare yourself to other people (focus on your own journey)
• How to not get distracted
• Surround yourself with powerful people who believe in your dream
• Finding your why
• More isn't always better, pace yourself so your don't burn out
• Doing the right kind of work and not just working to work
• Don't define yourself on outside people's expectations or approval
• How to get yourself into your peak performance state
