The Hard 90 With Zach Sorensen

Figure out who it is that you want to be and Be U More!

If you recognize your reason why and it is big enough, your commitment to the why will overpower the way you feel.

Lessons learned....

1. It all starts with developing your process.

2. It takes small actions every day

3. It takes persistence, patience, and commitment.

If your commitment is greater than your feelings, you will get results.

Schwarber tracked 1,300 pitches from a pitching machine, a process that helped him recognize breaking balls. He faced live pitching from a Cubs prospect. And then he played in two games. He walked twice, and his only hit was a double, but Epstein said in his second game, on Monday, “he smoked three balls.”

And the next night, he played in a World Series game.

Athlete Tough.  If I were to ask you what is the key to being mentally tough, what would you say the answer is?

I was always looking for was to give myself extra motivation and extra drive.  I couldn't stand the thought that someone out there might be outworking me. It was that thought that pushed me to do more, to stay focused, and remain consistent in my workouts. Find a reason to build your drive and motivation and use it. Even if it is a t-shirt.

What is your passion? Can you make your work your passion? Your passion will give you enjoyment in the process. Your passion will give you enjoyment in the struggle. 

Listen to Coach Mike Bianco tell us a story about tapping into your why and the power it can bring into your life, drive, and motivation. 

Why do you do the things you do? What is the reason for doing it? If you can establish an even bigger reason why, that reason why will help you get through the difficult days. Also, it is during your failures that you can lean on your reason why to keep you in the fight and help you get back on track. 

If you were to hang signs on your wall with a one word focus, a mantra, or an encouraging phrase, what would your sign say?
