The One Hack to Becoming Stronger, Smarter, Faster, Healthier, and Better
Sorry, if you were looking for the hack, the shortcut, the easy road, there isn’t one. Things don’t just happen for you. You can’t sit on your couch and watch TV all day and get a six-pack. You can’t play video games after work and magically get better at your job.
Jocko Willink knows. He’s a retired Navy SEAL Officer, Cofounder of Echelon Front and best-selling author of Extreme Ownership. Every day, he wakes up at 4:30 AM to get in a workout. Insane? Yes. Incredibly motivating? Absolutely.
