@iamrichroll: What drives us to sacrifice curiosity for the illusion of security? This week, I’m joined by Steve Magness, a renowned performance expert and author of “Win the Inside Game.” We examine why our modern obsession with achievement often leads to self-sabotage and how our drive for external validation can become calcified into patterns that no longer serve us. Through the aperture of his journey from elite runner to pioneering coach, Steve reveals how social media hijacks our basic needs and why group identity threatens growth. His insights offer a framework for moving beyond survival mode to genuine thriving. We dive into the power of curiosity, the value of productive discomfort, and why sustainable excellence requires balancing growth with commitment.
