Evander Holyfield did 300 workout sets, not 299, because that one extra set separates a champion from everyone else. Jeff Hoffman watched him insist on the full count. The difference between ordinary and great is the willingness to do what others won't.

What's the difference between 300 and 299? You might say that's an easy answer. It's obviously only one, but that's actually not true. The difference between 299 is 300 is a heavyweight champion of the entire world versus everybody else that's out there. And not too long ago, I had billionaire Priceline founder Jeff Hoffman on my podcast, and he told me the story about Evander Holyfield, who he's friends with. And he was there watching Evander do this workout, this crazy workout that almost no human in the world could do. And it involved 300 sets, and Jeff was counting for him. And then Evander came up to him at the end, and he said, was that 300 or was that 299? I didn't quite get it. And Jeff said, I think that was 300. And he said, was it 300 or was it 299? Jeff said, I'm pretty sure it was 300. And he went back. Evander did and did one more set, this one crazy set, to make sure they did 300. And Jeff thought this was a crazy idea. And he said, why did you go back and do that? I'm pretty sure that you did 300. And he said, the difference between 300 and 299 is the heavyweight champion of the world and everybody else that's out there. So what you could take from the story is that if you want greatness, if you want greatness out of your life, if you want your life to become something special, you need to put in 100% every single time you do something and not come up short, not allow yourself to come up short. So that's the difference between 300 and 299.
