"Bring Out The Greatness Within You"


“Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.”
— Winston Churchill —


Gaining The Advantage

OK, so we’ve taken a journey inside YOU to see what you are all about. I just can’t emphasize enough about how important all of this is, but believe me once you practice it you will see a change in everything you do — but you need to believe in it.

In the last blog, I talked about Laveranues Coles,
Eric Mangini, A-Rod, and Eli Manning. Which one of the four DiSC® behaviors describes each of them best? I'll give you the answers in the next blog.

Now try this one! On the TV show Everybody Loves Raymond which one of the four DiSC® traits best describes Raymond, the mother, the father, the brother? Again, I'll give you the answers in the next blog. If you get all of these right, you will be close to being an “expert” on DiSC®!

So now you can see how this all fits into your everyday life as well as on the athletic field. Once you possess this knowledge, there is really no telling what mountains you can climb. Remember, all successful people use their strengths to gain the advantage, and this assessment helps you understand your strong points.

If you would like to take the assessment tool, please send me an email at
tpperformer@aol.com and I will tell you how.

Wrap-Up

Becoming a success doesn’t happen overnight, and there is a huge learning curve. This blog is meant to give you a short-cut to success, and one of the best ways to learn is to listen to someone who has made all the mistakes for you. Think of it as having
Dale Earnhardt Jr. whispering in your ear while you are driving in the Indy 500. Learning from his mistakes will certainly get you to that checkered flag ahead of the pack much quicker.

This whole thing on building success isn’t over yet. In fact, we’ve got a long way to go. Starting in the next blog, we’ll spend some time on attitude and how it affects your performance. We’ll talk about things like visualization, the law of attraction, positive self-talk, and how to take control of your day. It’s all coming up!
