It’s that time of the year again - the new year. Billions of marketing dollars are poured into the machine to do 1 thing: sell you on the idea that to achieve more, or to aim more effectively, we must set better goals – the more “hairy” and “audacious” they are the better. Yet, most of us are beating our heads against the wall from last year as we can’t seem to make the progress that we want. This episode offers a different perspective on goal setting and how to achieve what sets your heart on fire.

Today, we’re joined by Ben Dziwulski, founder and CEO of WODprep. If you’re looking for a good laugh, this episode is for you. Ben discusses his early entrepreneurial start by selling rocks to his classmates for $30 to $40 per rock, his serendipitous exposure to the world of Bass Fishing, which led him to become a collegiate national champion, and why examining your mimetic desires (not a 10-year plan) is the best way to design your life.

WODPrep helps athletes from all over the world break through their sticking points, hit new PR's, and learn to Rx workouts.
