NEW - His Great Uncle Was the First Black Order of Canada Recipient & now He is too

Duane D.O. Gibson's great uncle, Isaac Phills, was the first Black Canadian to receive the Order of Canada. Decades later, Duane received the same honour himself, and still cannot find out who nominated him, a mystery he says fits the whole point: it was never about recognition in the first place. Duane raced Amazing Race Canada as Maestro Fresh Wes's teammate, walking a tightrope two hundred feet above a waterfall in the process, and explains the concept he calls flow state, the same mental space he used to set a Guinness World Record freestyling for eight hours and forty five minutes straight. He breaks down the compounding math behind getting just 1% better every day, and the specific four-step morning routine, meditation, movement, reading, journaling, that he says makes that possible even on the days it feels impossible.
