Eric Wood, Former NFL center, Buffalo Bills – Develop Positive Habits

How Leaders Lead with David Novak

Well, my guest today is Eric Wood, who is a former NFL center for the Buffalo Bills. Eric was in the prime of his career in 2017 when he was forced to retire due to a neck injury.

Now, for a lot of people, that would have been an absolutely crushing blow. But as you’ll hear today, Eric has navigated this big life and career transition with an incredible positive mindset.

Now, let’s be honest, sometimes you talk to optimistic people and it’s all just puppies and rainbows. But Eric doesn’t ignore the tough stuff. He just has a different perspective on it. For him, things don’t happen to us, they happen for us. We can develop that mindset, too – by creating positive habits of gratitude, learning, and generosity.

You’re gonna be so encouraged by this conversation, especially if you’re going through any kind of transition right now. So here is my conversation with my good friend – and soon to be yours – Eric Wood.
