Becoming World Class: Our Thoughts On Achieving Undeniable Skill

What is Effective Philosophy? Juan and I simplify hard to grasp concepts into pragmatic takeaways that can be applied to every day life (fitness, goal setting, work, parenting, travel, hobbies, finances, etc.,). 2 x episodes a week. We go live every Wednesday with our meanderings, plus an extra as a more casual conversation with a guest or between ourselves.

I'm going to become a world class handbalancer, here is my plan on how I want to do this.

In Episode #316 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: what it means to be world class at something, why conscious effort on improving and fixing mistakes is critical, a common occurrence of people getting injured whilst trying to show off, the humbleness of Floyd Mayweather (lol) and my list of principles to achieve this goal I have set for myself.

A big thanks to Petar the Podfluencer, Liam F, danigamb1310 and Liam F's mom for the support. And an apology to floydianslips, captain_stacks, whasintong_herrera and xavi_herrera for the boostagrams we missed. We'll do better next time.

As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!
