This episode is a no-holds-barred call to action against settling for good when greatness is within reach. Inspired by the Pittsburgh Steelers' "almost-great" record, James challenges listeners to examine their own lives and ask: are you comfortably stuck in "good" when greatness is calling?
Key Points:
- The enemy of greatness: "Good" can lull us into complacency and prevent us from pursuing our full potential.
- Comfort zone trap: Don't get caught in the cycle of accepting just enough instead of pushing for excellence.
- Corporate metrics vs. soul satisfaction: Don't let external numbers dictate your internal happiness.
- Find your "best me": Define your vision for life and chase it with passion and purpose.
- Biggest regret of the dying: Not going for their dreams. Don't let this be your story.
- Amplify your inner rockstar: Silence the critic, crank up the volume on your dreams, and live the life you truly deserve.
Actionable Tips:
- Ask yourself: Are you settling for "good" in any area of your life?
- Write down your goals: What does your "great" life look like?
- Identify your fears: What's holding you back from pursuing your dreams?
- Take action: Commit to one small step toward your goals every day.
- Connect with James: Apply for his Amplify program to level up your greatness journey.

- "Don't settle for good, because good is the enemy of great and you deserve greatness, my friend."
