COMPETE
EVERY DAY

The high-performance playbook to outperform excuses and Beat Yesterday™.

backed by winners


*Not the motivational speaker you’re used to.

No guru. No rah-rah hype man.
Just a competitor who decided to get 1% better every day and inspire 85,000+ leaders to do the same.
As a leadership performance speaker, 2x published author, and founder of Compete Every Day, I challenge audiences worldwide to get ruthlessly honest with themselves and build habits that stack real results.
My direct, no-fluff approach to mental discipline, daily improvement, and relentless follow-through has awakened competitors across every industry, from the NFL to Fortune 500 companies.
Ready to change the game—and the players? From now on, it’s you vs. you. Every day.

Jen Martin, Citizens Bank
“I am a huge Compete Every Day fan. I lead a global team of 500 as the Head of Enterprise Fraud and Claims for Citizens Bank. I really enjoyed the recent leadership book. I am having my son, who is a senior in high school, read Compete Every Day, and it’s resonating–if I can only give him the tools I didn’t have at his age. YOUR WORK HAS MEANT A LOT TO ME AND MY SUCCESS IN RECENT YEARS.

“I’ve been a fan of the Compete Every Day message for a while now. The gear is sharp, but the mindset behind it is what really resonated. I’ve been on a long transformation journey over the last few years, dropping over 400 lbs and rebuilding my life physically, mentally, and spiritually. I LIKE TO SAY THAT I’M THE UNLIKELY ATHLETE. I definitely need more CED gear as I keep changing sizes. Good problem to have.”
Claire Wells, LinkedIn
“Every damn time. Thank you, Jake, for being in the right place at the right time. I attempted my first Ironman 70.3 and made it 4-ish minutes in the water. Had to get pulled out (by my choice) because of panic. THIS MORNING’S MESSAGE STUCK BIG TIME. I headed out and completed a full 70.3, knowing these are just roadblocks.”

Motivation fades. Discipline compounds.
Your event needs more than a feel-good pep talk.
Give your people a winning formula to compete every day.


The world has a leadership shortage. Complacent leaders are leading complacent teams, and there’s no fire pushing them to do something about it.
Lead Better Now and Compete Every Day are for anyone who wants to build their leadership influence and start competing for the legacy they want. Two books packed with hard truths for sales pros, execs, athletes, and any other fed-up competitors ready to close the gap between good and great.
These aren’t sugar-coated reads for the “somewhat” motivated. They’re performance handbooks for people who want to lead, compete, and win at the highest level.
“EACH CHAPTER GIVES ACTION STEPS THAT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. Jake not only motivates but also gives tools for actionable and disciplined habit building. Buy it. You won’t regret it.”
