Mindset with Brian Murphy: Ruthless Simplicity

'Do the simple things savagely well.' This is what ReliaQuest Founder and CEO Brian Murphy continues to remind himself 17 years into his journey leading his company. After continued success and incredible growth, it's simplifying his approach that helps cut through the noise of growing responsibilities, clarify decision-making, and boost both personal and professional performance.

In this conversation with ReliaQuest mental performance coach Derin McMains, you’ll hear Murph discuss:

  • Staying laser-focused on 'what's important now'
  • Using self-talk and compartmentalization to regain control and remain calm under pressure
  • Finding joy in the challenge
