In Episode 193 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with world-renowned trainer, author, and CEO of Attack Athletics, Tim Grover. Tim has personally trained and worked with some of the most elite, iconic athletes in the world, including Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade, and hundreds of other sports and business professionals. He is the preeminent authority on the science and art of physical and mental dominance and his latest book, \\u201cWinning: the Unforgiving Race to Greatness,\\u201d is a testament to that life-long dedication.

This is not a conversation that\\u2019s going to give you a roadmap to victory. Not even close. In fact, we wouldn\\u2019t even describe it as motivational. For some people, Tim\\u2019s words will be incredibly validating. For others, unnerving, because \\u201cwinning doesn\\u2019t apologize,\\u201d as Tim would say. \\u201cIt doesn\\u2019t explain. In the language of Winning, there is no talk about motivation.\\u201d Words can\\u2019t capture it. Only you can if you\\u2019re willing to pay the price, and even then, there are no guarantees.

If you\\u2019re already addicted to the taste of success, if you\\u2019ve been chasing it for as long as you can remember, if you\\u2019ve caught it, and want it again, then this conversation will speak to you. In this episode, you\\u2019re going to learn about some of the tools and techniques that Tim and his athletes and high-achievers have used to execute and compete at the highest level of human performance. You\\u2019re going to learn about how to harness your dark-side, about how not to care about what others think, about letting go of entitlement, clearing your mind, and learning to focus on the details, and on what matters most to you. As Tim will say, \\u201cwinning is not a marathon, it\\u2019s a sprint, with no finish line.\\u201d There is no balance. In order to win anything, you have to live your life with urgency, at every moment, because winning wants all of you\\u2014there\\u2019s never enough time, so why waste any of it?

For those of you who are basketball fans, Tim shares stories from his experience working with Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant during the pinnacles of their basketball careers, about what they were like as individuals, and about what it was like for him to play a part in their success.
