Seat 2 of 6. Also at the table:

  • Shohei OhtaniAbsolute GOAT who got me back into baseball and proved that mastering multiple disciplines at the highest level is possible when you refuse to accept false tradeoffs.
  • Tom BradyDemonstrated that sustained excellence comes from obsessive preparation, discipline, and an unwavering commitment to longevity.
  • Visakan VeerasamyGreat guy, and big Twitter influence. Well weaponized ADHD, that inspired me to build more scaffolding around my mind and let the chaos free with structure. Also he's very friendly.
