How Important Is It To You?

"When people ask me how to raise their level of performance, the first thing I ask is, ‘How important is it to you?’" – Dan Gable

Dan Gable isn’t just a legendary wrestling coach, he’s a blueprint for dominance. Olympic gold medalist. 15 NCAA titles as head coach at Iowa. And still, when people ask him for the secret to performance, he doesn’t give a training regimen.

He asks a simple question.

“How important is it to you?”

Because most of the time, we don’t need a better plan.

We need a better reason.

If it matters…
you’ll wake up early.
you’ll stay up late.
you’ll fight for it.

If it doesn’t…
you’ll make excuses.
you’ll stay “busy.”
you’ll keep waiting for the perfect time.

There is no shortcut.
No hack.
Just the truth:
You will rise to the level of your priorities.

So start here:
How bad do you want it?
