095: Mastering Focus – How Drew and I Beat Distractions

In this episode, I sit down with my brother, Drew, for a deep dive into distractions—how they show up, why they derail us, and, most importantly, how to overcome them. Whether it’s battling TikTok rabbit holes, pushing through tough runs, or staying consistent with long-term goals, we explore the mindset shifts and strategies to keep distractions in check and your focus on track.

We also talk about Drew’s journey, from dropping over 40 pounds to training for his first marathon and beyond. Through personal stories, practical tips, and some humor along the way, we unpack what it takes to build momentum, stay consistent, and transform those small daily wins into life-changing results.

Key Topics Covered:

• The biggest distractions we face and how to manage them
• Why New Year’s resolutions fail and what to do instead
• Performing a “distraction audit” to regain control of your time
• How accountability can keep you on track when motivation fades
• The role of perspective and delayed gratification in achieving big goals

Whether you're looking to sharpen your focus, set better goals, or simply block out the noise, this episode is your reminder that small, consistent actions lead to big changes. Tune in, get inspired, and let’s keep getting after it!
