If you don't like something change it; if you can't change it, change the way you think about it.

Following Through

Everyone knows that following through is one of the most important things in sports. This is also true if you want to become successful in life.

Once you put into practice all that you've learned from The Million Dollar Athlete, you will begin to see a change in the way you think, play, and act. You will become more positive each day, and all those negative vibes that have surrounded you in the past will vanish.

In the last blog, we talked about failing (TMDA Volume II Part 8) and how it is a part of winning and that you can’t succeed without it. Be careful, though, because it will bring on negative vibes if you begin to believe you are a failure. Remember, once your sub-conscious mind begins to believe all that negativity, it’s difficult to break. That’s why the positive self-talk is so important.

Did you start to FIRE those negative friends (TMDA Volume II Part 4)? All they can do is drive you down making you believe you are a failure. You need to hang with positive people so you, too, can become positive. There’s no easy road to success, but you can make it a lot easier by following The Million Dollar Athlete and taking the DiSC® assessment. Choose your friends wisely.

In any sport the follow through is important. If you have a goal, follow through and see it to completion. You can be the athlete and individual you want by being relentless in your follow through.

Upset Minded

Many of the ranked NCAA college football teams have gone down to defeat in the 2007 year—the most noted being Michigan vs Appalachian State. Even though Appalachian State was a tremendous underdog, I’ll bet they went into that game with an attitude second to none.

This was truly a David vs Goliath (TMDA Volume II Part 5) battle. Remember, if you show a great attitude, you will have a great team. There were no negative vibes on the part of Appalachian State, and they followed through on their goal.

You need to do three things to become successful: 1) treat The Million Dollar Athlete as your playbook; 2) take the DiSC® assessment; 3) follow through to reach your goal
