Chukky Okobi has the personal experience to guide other ambitious corporate leaders to recognize that Success is Simple...if you know the Basic Instructions of Mind Mastery.


This Episode’s Heavy-Hitters:
- Chukky made the decision he was “going pro” at age 7-- he just didn’t know what sport he would go pro in until he played football at age 13 and decided it was “way easier than it looked on TV.”
- Chukky’s dad didn’t know he played football until he was in college and his mother was so busy she barely had time to notice either.
- Chukky had to seek out and “collect father figures” through his coaches and other mentors on the teams he was a part of.
- After getting rejected from Louisiana, as they deemed Chukky to not be “top 10 material” he got recruited to Purdue, where they beat top rival Louisiana in the first two games they faced off for a combined score of 112 to 9. 
- Chukky says the games leading up to the Super Bowl are more memorable for him than the actual Super Bowl game where he won his ring itself, since they couldn’t lose a single game and had to fight for their spot to make it.
- Everything in your past isn’t real-- it’s just your perception of what happened. Since your future hasn’t happened yet, that’s not real either. All that’s real is now, so why not make your own story?
- Chukky says: “People have 99.9% confidence that the sun is going to come up tomorrow… Why don’t you just apply that same confidence to yourself?”
