Do you want to be your very best?
Do you want to take control of your life, regardless of external circumstances, and live up to your full potential?
Do you want to release the full maximum level of greatness that is already within you?
I sure do! I want there to be NO GAP between the man I am intentionally becoming and the man I God created me to be.
This is a story that is worth repeating. Stories are what we tell ourselves and eventually become. And your story comes from your mindset, your belief system.
And it is a choice!
To be the best, you must choose the right mindset!
A success mindset.
A mindset of growth, positivity, and forward thinking.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
In a recent presentation, Arnold Schwarzenegger shared his key mindset of full commitment that led to his tremendous success in achieving his big goals.
Arnold shared:
“I hate Plan B!”
Everything he ever did, the thing he heard out of everyone’s mouth was: ‘that’s impossible, that can’t be done, and no.’
Arnold continued:
“We have so many doubters and naysayers. And when you doubt yourself, that is very dangerous, because now what you’re basically saying that if my plan does not work, I have a fall-back plan. I have a Plan B.”
And when you have a Plan B, it takes thought, energy, drive, and tenacity, away from your Plan A.
When people said to Arnold, he changed it in his mind to:
It can’t be done => It CAN be done
No => YES
It’s impossible => It IS possible
Arnold never had a Plan B. He made a full commitment toward his goals and went all in.
To be a bodybuilding champion
To get into show business and be leading man
To be governor of California
NO PLAN B!
Bo Eason
I recently read Bo Eason’s book “There’s no Plan B for your A-game”. In this book, Bo explains how to develop the character, integrity, and commitment it takes to become the best.
Bo’s four step process to attain skill, maintain effort, and persist through challenges covers four key mindsets needed to become the best!
Declaration
Preparation
Acceleration
Domination
Bo says when you make your declaration to be your best, you have to adapt the mindset towards your declaration, in effect, change the way you think about your own identity. This requires your mindset to be intimate and profound with your future best self.
I highly recommend Bo’s book!
It all comes down to your mindset!
Start by asking yourself, what does your life look like with you at your very best?
What does your greatness look like with you at your best?
Dream big and be audacious! Begin to envision a life at your very best. See it. Feel it. Believe it. Replace the old thought pattern with where you now see yourself at your very best!
It’s time to think differently about yourself and your future. Now is the time!
“Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”
Never give up and Never Settle!
