THE DECISION:
Are you going to
HOLD BACK
or
GO ALL OUT?
THE ULTIMATE GOAL:
TO GO ALL OUT -- NOT JUST SOME OF THE TIME --
BUT ALL OF THE TIME
I've been researching peak performers for more than 30 years.
I study the mental skills of world-champion athletes and coaches, record-setting sales people, super star entertainers, and world-class business executives.
I know of many performers who go all out some of the time. I know of a very few who go all out most of the time. I know of only one who goes all out all of the time.
He's the world's strongest strongman --Dennis Rogers from Houston, Texas. Arguably, Dennis is the strongest strongman who has ever lived. He bends steel, rips phone books in half, and breaks chisels. And those are just the warm-ups. I've seen videos of him stopping planes, holding back motorcycles, and even lifting up refrigerators off the ground with his pinky finger. He's a real-life Superman.
He's performed for my students at Montclair State on several occasions and he leaves my students stunned.
Dennis is unbelievably strong. But his mental strength is even greater than his physical strength. Here's what I mean . . . when Dennis meets resistance -- the chisel doesn't break or the piece of steel doesn't bend -- Dennis does the most remarkable thing. He gets turned on. You can see it. He gets excited. Dennis goes to a higher level of energy and intensity.
THIS IS THE ULTIMATE SKILL:
GETTING TURNED ON BY DIFFICULTY.
GETTING PSYCHED UP BY PROBLEMS.
GETTING EXCITED BY OBSTACLES.
Imagine that you're a math major and you get turned on by difficult math problems. Do you know what you are? You're a Nobel Prize winner waiting to happen!
Imagine you're a sales person and you get excited and intrigued by your most resistant prospects. Do you know what you are? You're a multi-millionaire waiting to happen.
THE ULTIMATE MENTAL SKILL:
GET PSYCHED UP -- NOT PSYCHED OUT -- BY OBSTACLES.
GET TURNED ON -- NOT TURNED OFF -- BY DIFFICULTIES.
GET FASCINATED -- NOT FRUSTRATED -- BY PROBLEMS.
If you started thinking and acting this way, I'll start studying you because you'd soon be world class!!!
But get this: If you just start thinking about thinking this way, you'll start beating most of your competition because most people hate obstacles, run away from difficulties and whine about problems.
