Summary: In this episode of the Summit Podcast, Bob Turner interviews Jacob Godar, a lawn care business owner and endurance athlete who shares his inspiring journey of recovery from a severe motorcycle accident to completing an Ironman and ultra-marathon. Jacob discusses the mental toughness required in both endurance sports and business, emphasizing the importance of resilience, goal setting, and the journey over the destination. He also highlights his commitment to helping others through coaching and sharing his experiences in the personal development space.
Takeaways: I want to be considered an athlete. I scraped myself off the ground after my accident. You can push through almost anything in business. The goal is just a split second, it's gone. It's all about the journey, not the destination. I want to show my kids what's possible. I try to cast a big enough vision for my team. I love doing hard things and challenging myself. Resilience is key when facing tough situations. The intersection of endurance sports and business is powerful.
