What are we missing? What am I missing was really the question that I asked myself for years and years and years!
Sitting there watching ‘them’. Sitting there watching other people ‘knock it out of the park’ while I struggled and strained and pushed and pulled and worked and suffered and agonized…
Do you relate? Are you in a place wondering what it is that makes you so different? Pissed off because dammit, YOU ARE just as smart, you ARE even maybe a little smarter?!?! Maybe you have more experience? Maybe you have more training and a stronger background in your field than they had in theirs… so WHY THEM and NOT ME?
Well, today’s video answers THAT question!
Of course, not in so many words… but, it’s in there!
Check it out (and even if you’re not relating to my story up there, this is still a pretty awesome motivational video! I’m liking this guy Eddie Pinero!
Here’s what I took away from this video…
Eddie describes how short term memory is vital, right? Baseball is an EXCELLENT example! 30% success rate at hitting baseballs and you are a ROCK STAR – right? That means 70% of the time, they fail… So – The key is in NOT holding on to the failures, right?
The trick is like Churchill said: “Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.”
Starting each new at bat with the idea that this time, they will get on base, they will get that hit- That’s how those folks that fail 70% of the time, even 80% and up, stay on their game.
Cool So there’s the secret – right? BUT HOW?
HOW do they do it? That was obviously my problem, right? I would try, get down because it didn’t go so good, and stay down for a while… then come back.
Well – the TACTICS that ‘they’ employ are different! THAT is the trick! Developing the tactics that work for you, figuring out how YOU stay ENTHUSED between failures… until… YOU knock it out of the park!
That’s what I do, help people develop strategies and tactic to live enthused, consistently.
First – you need the REASON to do it: Clarity.
Next, you have to have the COURAGE to go stand at the plate.
Then you need the ENERGY to maintain.
Then you need the PRODUCTIVITY, or effectiveness at what your doing.
Then you need the ability INFLUENCE those around you to support you.
Pretty simple formula really.
If you’re reading this, and you mention that you ‘want those five things’, I’m offering a free strategy session to asses where you are in those areas of your life, and help you get on track.
