Let’s talk about schedule. I get this question a lot: What do you do on a daily basis? It’s a great question. It’s the question that I would ask too. If I wanted to be the fastest man in the world, I not only would want to meet the fastest man in the world, but […]

Today we’re going to talk about focus or the lack thereof—so many people come up to me and they go, “Bo, I can’t do what you’re asking me to do because I don’t have your kind of focus. I don’t have your discipline.” People decide they don’t have focus and discipline and that’s just how […]

Today I want to talk to you about leadership and it’s a tough subject to talk about because it’s ever evolving.

This theater that we’re sitting in today is in my hometown. I’m performing this play in a couple of days and Dawn is producing it. It’s a fundraiser for my kids’ school. What’s so funny about this is that the first 10 or 12 years we performed this play in New York and all over […]

How do you deal with heartbreak over something you’ve trained to be the best in the world at and now it’s over? You have a knee surgery or an injury and your dream is taken away from you. That happens to a lot of us—it’ll happen to all of us at some point. How do […]

I’m about to perform a play so I’m in here rehearsing. I’m getting turnover—repetition. It’s no different than giving as speech, toast or a presentation in the boardroom. It’s all the same. I rehearse all of that stuff. I memorize what I’m going to say over and over again because repetition is the king. Repetition […]
