## Resource

In today’s episode, I sit down with Greg Lutzka, two-time X Games gold medalist, entrepreneur, television host, and executive producer, to talk about the lessons that skateboarding teaches far beyond competition. Greg shares how falling hundreds of times while learning tricks prepared him for success in business, investing, and life. We discuss his hit Fuel TV series Next Gen Skateboarding, his mission to create opportunities for young athletes, and the mindset required to keep improving no matter your level of success. Greg also explains why learning to represent yourself, build relationships, and create opportunities can be just as valuable as mastering your craft.
