What a Peloton Personal Record Taught Me About Business Focus

Last year, I bought a Peloton bike.

 For me, keeping fit and healthy is a big part of staying sharp in business.

A few weeks ago, I found myself clipped in at the Peloton London studio.

Face-to-face with instructor Bradley Rose, music blasting, cameras rolling, and no chance of distraction.

This wasn’t my usual at-home ride.

This was live.

And I was locked in.

No phone.

No email.

No 'quick distractions'.

Just full-on presence, in the moment, with one goal - to give it my all.

The result?

My best performance ever on a Peloton ride.

My highest place on the Peloton leaderboard.

A shiny new PR (personal record).

And a great moment afterwards, telling Bradley he’d helped me smash it.

The takeaway?

When you’re fully focused - no distractions, no multi-tasking - you unlock another level.

It feels easier (even when it’s hard).

It feels lighter.

And it works.

So this week, whatever you're working on –

Shut the door.

Silence the phone.

Get in the zone.

That's how you get shit done.

Have a great week.
