144. Process Over Outcome: Lessons from Steve Nash, James Clear, and Real-Life Sports

Hall of Fame point guard Steve Nash said it best: "The process is what wins." In this episode of the Especially for Athletes podcast, we unpack why process over outcome is more than just a motivational phrase—it's a way of life for elite athletes and strong individuals. Dustin and Chad reflect on lessons from Steve Nash, bestselling author James Clear (Atomic Habits), and past podcast guests like Brennan Schooler, Ally Gomm, and Justin Su'a to explore what it really means to stack hours, build discipline, and compete even when no one is watching. Highlight Moments: * Why trusting the process builds long-term success—even after tough losses. * James Clear's take on identity-based habits: "Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become." * How developing a consistent process leads to surprising victories—in sports and in life. Whether you're an athlete, coach, or parent, this episode will help you rethink what it means to win. Stick to the process. Trust the journey. Eyes Up. Do the Work.
