“A good teacher is like a candle—it consumes itself to light the way for others.” — Unknown

A couple of episodes ago, Brian Buffini delved into the concept of mastery, from George Leonard’s best-selling book of the same name. This episode, Brian continues the topic and outlines the five keys to mastery, offering lessons from successful people who exemplify each concept, including Carlos Santana and golfer Jason Day. You’ll dive deep into the five keys, learn why practice is vital to progress, understand the role of visualization and learn how to maintain your edge without being edgy. This is an episode you don’t want to miss, regardless of your place on your journey to mastery.
