This this the original post for the so “I met Series…”
I didn’t technically meet him but I did ask him a question when he was giving a great talk about the Seattle Seahawks in 2015 and their culture. It was some throw away about how he evaluated “talent” – 
His response was kind of surprising, and
was a much better question back to me:
“Do you have a personal philosophy on life?”
I mumbled my way through something about “do well for others” – but what a great question. It was big turning point in how I viewed myself and my development.
I also remember being amazed listening to him talk about meditation, which was a big part of adding it to my morning routine in the last 2 years.
A year latter I wrote him a letter thanking him for asking me that question and putting me on the spot. I also sent him a couple of wristbands with the letter.
