The Grind Podcast

Erik sits down with Aaron to talk about Disparagement. It's a common problem and it's especially bad in the hunting community. Why discredit someone for their accomplishments, or are you just jealous you didn't put in the work as they did. Everyone can make excuses but it's the people that constantly grind and put in the work to be successful. So the next time you're bringing someone down, think about what you're saying and reevaluate what you're doing.1st Phorm App: https://www.1stphorm.app/MuleyfreakMegaWatt Link: https://1stphorm.com/products/megawatt/?a_aid=MuleyfreakPost-Workout Stack: https://1stphorm.com/products/post-workout-stack/?a_aid=MuleyfreakMeat Sticks: https://1stphorm.com/products/protein-sticks/?a_aid=Muleyfreak Private Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/muleyfreak/
