A Championship State of Mind

The world is forever changing especially in the job market. Companies are downsizing and many are asking you to do more with less. Today, Forbes magazine reported that happy people on the job are out numbered 2 to 1. Which means people are fed up…. they hate their jobs… going in and tolerating a daily environment of negativity and demotivation to feed a house in which their families are depending on. Why is it that people are unhappy? I firmly believe people become stuck in their circumstances because they do not have a “Championship State of Mind.”

Many of us spend our days searching for the WEEKEND,
using it as our Championships going to the club to celebrate and spending money you don’t have clubbing and you’re broke and most of all spiritually broken again on Monday.

So many people are parting, drinking, relaxing instead of reading, educating and motivating themselves into believing that they can do better.

Right now is a great time to become an entrepreneur or prepare for that raise or advancement on your job , in your career, even improvements in your marriage, maybe even in school; inside of you there is something you want to accomplish in life.

* So what has to happen?

THE FIRST THING THAT Has TO HAPPEN IS …YOU HAVE TO GET SICK AND TIRED OF LOSING IN YOUR CURRENT Situation AS PEOPLE SAY. “The stuck inside the box mentality !”
What is it that you want? Think, Execute and Dominate. Think about what it is you ultimately desire. Make a plans for it… practice … Prepare for it and then go after it.
Believe(know in your mind you can and that it’s possible) that you can win your very own championship bout or battle . Make a commitment to succeed at what it is you ultimately desire. Don’t just become involved with the quest for your new championship…become submerged into it; winning your championship is a must do!

*** My very own coaching success story: I won 8 STRAIGHT CONSECUTIVE SECTIONAL WRESTLING CHAMPIONSHIPS while teaching and coaching high school age students who had become accustomed to losing. They had no clue how to win or understood the importance of winning. Many of them soon after high school went to college and are living successful lives. How did I do it? It had to start with a vision of winning first. Then there had to be a change in CULTURE AND ATTITUDE of the team…How the team thought process was at that current time, right on down to their daily actions, habits and rituals.
As for you, in order to succeed and win your life’s championships you must know what’s it going to take to get there and understand the sacrifices required to achieve your championship. Study your craft, job, situations…get ready to battle. Prepare for set backs and losses. Learn from your mistakes. Know the players on your team if your are in competition…which you are. If your are a leader on your job or in charge of your operation, know when you have cut ties with people who are not on the page as you and your team. Keep positive people around you. There’s no room for negativity at all!

Measure your success daily and know how far and how long you have to go to achieve your championship and always know where you are at in the process.

Have ambition and be relentless… Never, Never give up.
Now when you win … Prepare and look for your next CHAMPIONSHIP quest.

Finally, know that you can win your Championships in life if you have a positive state of mind that says. Each day say this to yourself. I WILL ,I CAN, I MUST succeed to be Great!
My CHALLENGE to You Right NOW IS TO THINK BIG ABOUT A CHAMPIONSHIP YOU WANT TO WIN IN LIFE.
*Believe it is possible, strategize how you can get there! Make NO excuses.
Have a I CAN, I WILL ATTITUDE… That CHAMPIONSHIP MENTALITY!
Stay positive in tough and stalled situations.(MENTAL Toughness) If you face obstacles or set backs figure out how to overcome them. Seek out people who have won the Championships you are facing! Talk about it daily to the ones you love..Exercise and eat right, get proper rest. Never stop grinding. Go for it have no fear and be willing to take risks!
Know that this your season to be great!
Be Great,

So many times I have witnessed talented individuals who are good at what they do for a living just totally settle for good. You also have individuals who have worked hard and long just to be good and they too have settled for the good. Both of the individuals have allowed themselves to just be good when they can stretch or push themselves a little more into greatness. However, they have chosen to do just enough to get by day in and day out. Why, this is to me is the number one reason that individuals lose their jobs or a company’s production declines and soon sending them down in flames; out of business. You see, if your individual productivity is stagnant or your company’s productivity is the same you as an individual or your company are has settled and platoed for good instead of Great, then you are in serious trouble.

Today, just being good is not going to cut in today’s world; you must be Great in order to advance yourself as an individual. Some people wonder why other people come in a company advance pass them even though they have been there before individuals passing them up have, they are passed over for that promotion or pay raise. Why is that? Well, there are several reasons why newer employees or companies for this matter passes them up.

They are “Attitude and Efforts. “Here’s and example you have an individual who has been employed for ten years and an employee who has been employed for three years and the newer employee gets the promotion or pay raise over the ten year employee. Why? Chances are the ten year employee has become complacent and their skills have leveled off or have demished. What has happened and continues to happen is someone has settled for good while someone else has decided to make a Great effort and went for it all; desiring to have more and wanting more than average. Attitude and Efforts are what separates good from Great. I will take an individual who has a Great Attitude and puts forth a Great effort towards the their work/career any day over a talent individual who’s just good. Good people are a dime a dozen… Great people are hard to fine. I have a few suggestions that will help individuals to not jut be good but be Great you must be willing to do the following:

Develop a “Championship Attitude:” Always give your best efforts and desire to learn.

Education will catapult your level of success on a job. Learn all you can and never stop learning. Be a student of your business or position!

Have written goals and clear vision of where you would like to be long term and short term.

Stay focused always rise above the rest…stay hungry and never settle for good.

Have a no fear type mentality…when an opportunity presents itself, take the risks and go for it.

Never apologize to your peers or competition for your success.

You must be a competitor and always measure your progress.

Remember, nothing else pays you more than being great. So “Don’t Be Good…Be Great.
