#36 - How to Handle Disappointment

Summary: 

The surest way to succeed is to stop quitting!  The quickest way to mediocrity and the average life is to give in at the first sign of  resistance or struggle.  We all experience.  If we are going after anything meaningful, we will experience a good amount of resistance and struggle.  

Here is a defining moment.  

We can give in and say, "it's not worth it, it's not working, it will never happen for us," or we can choose to embrace the struggle and see it as a sign to keep charging forward.  We can reframe the situation as a test.  As a barrier to entry.  To weed out those not fit for success. 

It's great to create the vision, to set the massive goal and dream big, but we must never forget the work that will be required of us to make it a reality.  I believe that is why so many people fail and fall short of their goals.  Because we have completely underestimated how much action and perseverance it will take to "make it." 

Outlast the rest, be consistent, stay the course and simply KEEP GOING.  You will succeed while others wave the white flag.  You, my friend, are much more disciplined and mentally strong than that - show it!

#34 - How to Overcome the Darkest Moments of our Life

Summary: 

The darkness will come.  The pain will come.  The hardship will come.  The resistance will come.  Here lies an opportunity.  An opportunity to grow as a man.  An opportunity to step into your power and rise above towards the light and an entirely new world.  

We can't always control what comes into our lives but we always control how we respond to each moment, each experience and each event.  Here is where you can measure a man.  For it's easy to remain positive, inspirational and enthusiastic amidst the good days.  

It's critical to remember that the darkest times, the struggle and the hardship will come into our lives for a very particular reason.  However, it's a choice to see this lesson or we can choose to remain blind and bound by the pain.  It's a conscious choice.  

Here is where a man can call upon his personal freedom and choose to see the underlying lesson.  Choose to have faith that he's being directed down a very particular course that he could have never done on his own.  Faith that the force has been called upon to correct his course for the better.  

His faith will carry him beyond the darkness and rise, once again, into the light.  He shall step into his power and grow from his darkness, not just go through it.  

Remember this message as the darkness falls once again.  Embrace it, for it's here to serve you.

Reflection Questions: 

  1. Can you connect the dots from previous moments of darkness in your life? 
  2. Can you see the underlying message that came with the darkness? 
  3. Have you ignored the message and lesson that has come your way?  Only to continue to live with the pain?  

 

#33 - How to Take Your Life, Body or Professional Life to a New Level

Summary:  

Often times we are too easy on ourselves. Giving ourselves an easy-out with simple phrases such as:  (I'll try.  I'll do my best.  I'll give it a 'shot'.  I don't care how I do).  This is a slick way for ourselves to not be personally responsible for our outcomes.  It puts zero pressure on us.  We don't have to feel any kind of stress, anticipation or expectations.  Sounds great in theory, but it hurts us in the long run.  We must remember that there is a good kind of stress, pressure and anticipation that comes from the form of - COMPETITION.  

It's time that we use competition as a tool and driving force.  A force to elicit more effort, more energy and a greater sense of purpose.  Harness this.  It can and will empower you to produce that extra 10%, 20% or more!  It's the difference between a $50,000 career to maybe a $100,000+ career or flourishing business.  It's the difference between an ok body and health to an elite body and health.  

The elite are competitive.  If you want to be great at something, aim to be the absolute best!  Let this drive you.  Compare yourself to the greats to condition yourself that it IS POSSIBLE.  Let this give you a purpose and a why for charging through the adversity, the obstacles and the "pain."  Harness the power of competition.  

Declare to be great.  Declare to win the game.  Put the pressure on yourself and answer the bell.
