In this episode Captain Tom Chaby, retired Navy SEAL and founder of T3 Advantage, breaks down the mindset and leadership principles that drive top performers. With over 26 years of SEAL experience and work alongside organizations like the Tampa Bay Lightning and the University of Alabama, Tom shares why leadership starts with leading yourself first. He unpacks his 60-20-20 leadership philosophy and the four critical intangibles: mindset, discipline, resilience, and leadership. Tom challenges the popular belief in "positive thinking," introducing a powerful alternative: neutral thinking, where performance thrives under pressure. Through real-world stories from combat zones to championship games, he explains how perception shapes performance and why most people get pressure wrong. The conversations dives into how elite teams stay focused on process over outcomes, and how small mindset shifts can unlock massive results. Whether you're leading a team, growing a business, or just trying to perform at your best, this episode delivers practical, battle-tested insights that you can apply immediately. Sharpen your edge and operate at a higher level after you tune into this episode of "Money" Market.
