58. Kyle Shewfelt, Part 1

August 9, 2010 by duffgibson

If you’re going to have a discussion about success, about being your best or about being the World’s best, as Kyle Shewfelt was in the sport of gymnastics, you need to talk about passion or a love for what it is you’re doing.  You can talk about hard work and many will refer to the ‘rule of 10000 hours’ but you’re never going to get there if you aren’t just a little bit obsessed with what it is you’re doing.

Kyle was kind enough to sit down with me earlier this year to talk about his passion for gymnastics and how he basically lived and breathed the sport since he was very young.  There are a number of very key concepts exhibited  in what Kyle says in this portion of the interview and I think you’d find that a number of great athletes and a number of very successful people exhibit these same traits.  Thanks very much Kyle for your time and insight.
