Decide : Commit : Succeed

Take yourself back and think about your experience in high school. We all remember that one person in school that was the all around perfect athlete. It was as if they were uniquely designed to do one thing, and one thing only, sports. That person probably had a mildly muscular build, agility and speed, and an ability to adapt in any form of athletic sports. Whoever you are imagining probably was an all inclusive athlete and in a way frusturated every other aspiring football, basketball, soccer, tennis, frisbee, track, etc...you get the picture, player.

This person was dedicated and behind the scenes, spent hours on their free throw, hours on timing the track, and hours perfecting their hail mary pass, but inevitably they became a master of their skill. They decided to be athletic, committed to the process, and succeeded in their results. The commonality is mirrored in such way in our work. We must focus in on the "athlete" we wish to become to fully grasp the results of who we want to be. As an athlete perfects the prinicples of their sport and commits to being the best, we must do in our own lives. There are millions of "athletes" in the world, yet only a handful succeed to be paid the "big bucks." I'm sure there are thousands of people that work in the same industry you do, but are you the select handful that succeed among the masses. Begin to focus on the individual details that really train yourself to run the "marathon" to success while ignoring the insignificant ones. Many times we get caught up on the little details that pull us from our "core training" in the field. Success is never made over night but is a long intense training.

I would urge you to re-evalute your current role in your daily job and seek to fulfill the essentials that are actually building "muscle confusion" to better your outcome. Read the books that make your mind think outside your normal process. Listen to the podcast that essentually rocks your current concepts throws them our the door and creates a new thought process and procedure. Invest the time, money and dedication to better yourself to become the "all around athlete" in your field. Life is to short to just be a player in the game, but if we decide, commit, and succeed we can be the MVP, the heisman, or be the one that changes the game.
