Technology month continues in Episode 12, and not only will you learn how to wake-up with a winning attitude, but you will also learn how Jeff has been shaped by his Ohio State University baseball experience.

Have you ever explored the idea of competing against yourself to reach your full potential? Jeff Henry says in this week’s episode, “Every day you are playing one-on-one with yourself, do you want to get up and take the day off, or do you want to compete effectively?”
Jeff believes the ability to teach people, and then see their success, is more important than anything he could ever accomplish individually— and THAT is the kind of leader from which I want to learn! Today, you have an all-access pass to his wisdom here!

Bonus  Listen to Episode 11 with Jeff’s ViON teammate, Rob Davies, who rowed at Michigan!

  • 10:00  How to set yourself apart from the competition in your practice/preparation.
  • 15:00  Three things Jeff prioritizes that has led him to success.
  • 20:30  The role of discipline in team culture.
  • 24:00  How to motivate others how they want to be motivated.



You will learn:

  •  8:00   How to emphasize the power or “we” on your team.
