John Hicks
You have ambitious goals, let’s get you ready to Win.
At times we work really hard but aren’t as far along as we want to be. We even question if we’re on the right path or what to do next. We all want to get there faster, be more effective and let nothing stand in our way. But we need a system to know the right things to do to achieve the right results. We need Clarity, Focus, and Consistency to succeed.
I get it, I’ve struggled too, we all do.
Success is never a straight line. After 26 years in in uniform, I found myself the only person to have served as a Navy SEAL, Army Green Beret and Delta Force member. Each endeavor with unique challenges, uncertainty and failures. And each with a unique blueprint for peak performance and success.
Sharing the strategies that transformed my life.
I’ve been fortunate to have spent my life surrounded by elite performers that succeed in the most demanding arenas. I’ve pushed the limits of mental and physical ability, and along the way, I identified a performance framework that helps people harness the tools to achieve extraordinary results.
