Briefly

"You wake up and do something you love, and you don't want to look at the person in the mirror and fail them," Brady explained at the Fortune Global Forum. His relentless commitment to personal excellence fueled his performance and inspired those around him. Yet he recognized that not everyone had the same internal drive. "A lot of other guys aren't motivated like that," he noted, emphasizing the importance of finding ways to inspire those who needed external encouragement.
This discipline cultivated a team culture of high performance and unwavering standards, transcending the typical transactional mindset of clocking in and collecting a paycheck. "We were there to push each other to succeed, and when you succeed, there's enough credit to go around for everybody," said Brady, highlighting the collective commitment and camaraderie he fostered with his teammates.
