"Bring Out The Greatness Within You"
Having a positive mental attitude is asking how something can be done rather than saying it can’t be done.

Just How Tough Are You?
Do you think you could handle the pressures of professional sports? Here is where all the things you’ve learned so far about The Million Dollar Athlete and the DiSC assessment come together.
Let’s take a close look at Michelle Wie the young golfer that at one time took the LPGA by storm. Everyone wanted the young athlete to succeed, but she hasn’t played up to her capability. Her agent has recently left her as she finished 19th in a field of 20 women golfers. What’s gone wrong?
IT IS MY OPINION that Michelle has lost not only her confidence to play, but her attitude has become increasingly negative because she probably doesn’t really believe that she can win. Her subconscious mind may have accepted losing and is affecting her performance level.
What would you do if you were Michelle Wie? Call it quits or move forward and fight her way back to the top. My bet is that she will put the negative vibes behind her and find a way to win because that’s what million dollar athletes do.
Are You A Motivator?
Use the Michelle Wie story as your motivation to get what you want. You see even the best athletes can grow negative vibes, but you need to push them aside and focus on your goals. I’ve told you over and over again DON’T LET YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND TAKE OVER IN BELIEVING YOU ARE A FAILURE! If this happens, it’s a long and lonely ride back.
Not everyone can be a good motivator. Just because you are a coach doesn’t mean you are a motivator. You need to gain the respect of others around you before they will listen to you. Who are you going to motivate if no one is listening to what you have to say? The DiSC assessment tool is a great way to help you understand how you can motivate your teammates.
Hey, want to be a better athlete? The DiSC assessment is the way to go. Email me at tpperformer@aol.com to find out how you can sign up.
