Show Notes
This Monday on Mick Unplugged, we’re revisiting Mick Hunt’s conversation with David Pollack about standards, faith, leadership, and the work behind personal growth.
David shares how mentorship and his experiences in football shaped the way he approaches challenges, leads others, and keeps growing. Mick and David explore the “50-40-10” principle, why preparation and consistent effort matter, and what it means to hold your standards when your feelings pull you in another direction.
Whether you’re hearing this conversation for the first time or returning for another listen, consider where you can put one of these lessons into practice this week.
This is a re-release of a previously recorded episode.
In this conversation:
Choosing standards over feelings.
The role of preparation and effort in the “50-40-10” philosophy.
Leadership built on care, influence, and understanding the people you lead.
How an invitation and a mentor helped shape David’s faith journey.
Adapting through challenges and learning from setbacks.
Reflection: Where are you letting a temporary feeling make a decision that should be guided by a lasting standard?
