Two time CrossFit world champion Icelandic born Katrin Davidsdottir is happiest when she is working. She loves work - whether making progress, or failing then moving forward again. How has she achieved so much so young? The attitude and the mindset that nurtured throughout her life. Katrin’s secret may be that she has no secret at all. Her methods are straightforward and that they work so well is surely due to her indomitable consistency and drive.

Lessons: 1. Extreme success requires extreme sacrifice. 2. Hard work brings joy and reward. 3. Use your abilities and talents to build something that goes beyond your ego.
