Send us a text In this episode, I reflect on Oleksander Usyk’s recent historic unification win and his powerful post-fight message: “Discipline is more important than motivation.” As a longtime boxing fan, I break down what makes Usyk such a rare and remarkable fighter — not just in talent, but in mindset. Then, I pivot from the ring to the screen, highlighting five films that embody that same relentless discipline:🎣 JIRO DREAMS OF SUSHI– Mastery through decades of routine and refinement.🧬 GATTACA – Defying limitations through quiet, determined effort.🥁 WHIPLASH – The punishing path to greatness in the arts.🚣 THE NOVICE – Obsession, pain, and pushing beyond the edge.⏰ GROUNDHOG DAY – Self-mastery earned through infinite repetition. These films, like Usyk, show us that greatness isn"t a flash of inspiration — it"s built, one disciplined day at a time. Thank you for listening! You can find and follow us with the links below!
