3 Reasons Your Effort Isn’t Producing Results

You can catch updates about our training, and learn more on our philosophies on becoming awesome on the field and off at Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. I’ve been feeling sorry lately. I really do. I feel terribly sorry. Not sorry in the normal context, like being sorry for a mistake or something, but for my people…My beloved people […]

Role models are great, but why not be your own hero of your own story?

${𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐮𝐫𝐞} _____________________________________________________________ Learning rarely happens from success. In fact, successes are merely affirmations of our processes and work. Coming up short in something, however, show us our gaps. It shows us where our energy needs to shift to in order to improve. It shows us a path to growth. The problem is that failure is uncomfortable. It stings and is often embarrassing and damaging to our egos. The greats in any field are always willing to put their neck on the line and risk failing. They condition themselves to both welcome failure while simultaneously fight their hardest to win and succeed. The greats are unafraid to fall. I’ve always used athletics as a way to learn about succeeding in the other areas of my life. Talent aside, sports, specifically the two I compete(d) in, pitching & golf require a high level of failure tolerance. Succeeding in baseball means you have to be ok with failing more than 70% of the time as a hitter. Succeeding in golf means you constantly must master getting over disappointing shots and holes to keep yourself in the game. Failing doesn’t mean anything if you don’t learn and become better from it. Use it and grow into a smarter, more resilient human. That is if you want to become truly great at why you do.$

${𝙄𝙩 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙨 𝙛𝙧𝙤𝙢 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣} _____________________________________________________________ Do you have that friend or know someone that constantly loves to brag about “the grind” or how how much harder they are working than everyone else? Let me tell you something. Those are almost always projections of their own insecurities of laziness and lack of work ethic. Social media is all butterflies and rainbows. You see the highlight reel of all the “best” of the people you follow. The best of their bodies, their relationships, their job, and their lives. I’m all for trying to inspire, after all that’s what I’m doing here, but realize that the deep work that will move you to the next level of whatever it is your trying to achieve must come from within. It will require very uncomfortable, very challenging, very consistent effort. Motivation and inspiration fade and never last forever. It comes and goes. Showing up, punching the clock, and developing an internal everlasting fire takes a lot of unsexy work on your mind, body, and spirt. Find out what you want. Assess how bad you want it. Shut up and go the fuck after it. Repeat with ruthless consistency until it’s a reality.$ ${𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧 𝙤𝙛 𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙞𝙘𝙚} _____________________________________________________________ In life, sometimes we aren’t given choices. Sometimes our circumstances have been assigned and we must go through events that we have no control over. This is life. Some of us have it harder than others, but we all will inevitably experience difficult times. We are not defined by these times. We are defined by how we approach challenges and our decisions to either confront or succumb to obstacles in our path. When you have a goal, a problem to solve, or a difficult situation to confront, some of the variables will be outside your control. The one that will always be there, in your absolute power however, is your attitude. The attitude in which you approach anything in your life requires zero talent and zero skill unlike many other things in this world. Get ahold of your attitude. Let it be the everlasting variable that you carry into every single situation. Learn to use it as a superpower, because it is just that. When everyone around you bleeds negativity, remain the unwavering beacon of positivity. If Viktor was able to keep a positive attitude in the very worst moments of the holocaust, you can without question approach anything in life with a great outlook.$
