Expect them to give effort
Mental toughness to persevere and sustain what we’re asking them to do
Responsible enough to execute and do it the way were asking them to do it
None of those things take any ability to give effort. It’s a mindset it’s an attitude. I am going to go as hard as I can go. I’m going to do the best I can
Mental toughness- it’s going to be difficult... When you do things that are difficult it helps you get better
Pay attention-everyone in this room should be looking at me right now
I’m teaching you something.
God didn’t make winners, god didn’t make losers – god made choosers
Succeeding in this business is like a metaphor for life
I’m gonna help you be more successful…what is being successful
Consistency- need to know what you want to accomplish. Passion – important to you
Invest your time is doing something that is going to help you get to your goal or spend your time. spending time is playing games on your phone (accomplishes nothing)
You get what you put into this business
Perseverance – stick with things and learn from experiences. Are you going to take criticism as criticism or as someone trying to teach you something and make you better
I am never criticizing you – we are correcting you
The best opportunity to learn is when you make a mistake
You cant have great victories in life without adversity – adversity is what makes it a challenge
Your always selling something – are you selling confidence or selling shy. Look people right in the eye
The way you present yourself
What are you selling today - ? Are you selling positive energy? Or negative energy?
Relentless competitor- have to be – Friday the 13 – can’t kill em – relentless
Are you getting the picture?
Always coming back, always coming back – resilient
Character- accumulations of your thoughts and priorities – affects the choices you make – it’s all about choices in life that lead to your results
Pain of discipline or pain of disappointment
What your supposed to ,when you’re supposed to do it the way you’re supposed to do it- you’ll always going to be disappointed – failure
Discipline, relentless and pride
My goal is to give you have a better chance of succeeding
Fatigue makes cowards of us all-
Mindset is the most important thing- You gotta have a vision – know what you want to do .
To accomplish that vision –
You know there is something that you’re supposed to do it – can you make your self do it – that discipline- or something you know you’re not supposed to do it
It’s your decisions or choices
Respect and trust your co-workers
Are you drivin to be the best at what you do?
Be where your feet are ! in the moment- not the past good or bad ( complacency ) Today !! Today!!
Complacency is the killer of success-poison
Human beings are designed to survive or average – Human nature
You have to be uncomfortable to be successful
Create an atmosphere that gives our employees a chance to be successful
Leadership: the ability to affect and influence someone else for their benefit. Not manipulate people for your benefit- You have to care about people. They don’t care about what you know until they know you care.
When you let negative people talk about negative things all day , ask them what are they selling today ?
People have to know what the expectation is so they can be accountable to them – everyone has to buy into the standard.
Standard that you have to define –
Pay the price up front for success
Stick with things, overcome the adversity
Can’t be great victories without adversity – book “the road less traveled” Life is difficult
Failings are going to help you be successful
Everybody has to buy into our standard
Surround yourself with talent
