In this episode of the Circuit of Success, host Brett Gilliland sits down with Dr. Pete Paciorek, Director of Leadership and Character Development at IMG Academy, to uncover how elite athletes develop a true championship mindset. Dr. Paciorek holds a Doctorate in Youth Character Development and Servant Leadership and has spent his career as a professional baseball player, college head coach, college director of athletics, and IMG Academy National Team Baseball head coach.

This conversation goes beyond athletics and applies directly to business, entrepreneurship, and life. Dr. Paciorek breaks down how to train the mind, build resilience during adversity, create winning habits, and lead yourself before leading others. He introduces practical frameworks used at IMG Academy, explains why discipline matters most on the hardest days, and highlights the transferable skills athletes use to succeed long after competition ends. As a husband and father of three, Pete also shares powerful insights on parenting, mentorship, and legacy, making this episode a must-listen for leaders, parents, coaches, and high achievers looking to build a championship mindset in every area of life.
