"Your attitude determines your altitude." -Zig Ziglar Vision. Mindset. Choice. Whatever you CHOOSE to believe will begin to shape everything around you. It is certainly a choice. That means you are in CONTROL. The question is...Do you want that control? I do. And you should too. Having the ability to CHOOSE your mindset in the face of whatever is in front of you ultimately leads you toward greater control, fulfillment, and eventually your goals. Sometimes you have to take big risks, re-frame possibilities, and make the most out of sticky situations. My favorite person to coach right now is my oldest son. He doesn't even know that Daddy is working him out most of the time. Today was a great session for him, but it started some time ago. In the spring, I took a risk and ran out of our garage in a thunderstorm. No boots, umbrella, or wet suit. Pretty sure I slung my shirt off and just went for it. All I took with me was a plan. That plan was to show my man that nothing could stop me from creating my own joy in the face of a storm. It wasn't long before he was chasing me, splashing in puddles, and soaked to the bone in laughter and precipitation. The seed was planted. Rains and storms can be tremendously heavy, unpredictable, and sometimes dangerous. They can shut down baseball games, seasonal businesses, and a lot of peoples daily happiness. But those are all choices. With the correct mindset and planning, stadium owners can build retractable roofs, businesses can diversify services, and people can have the choice to pursue the beauty in the storm. Today, the storms came. Almost the exact same scenario, except who led the way out of the garage? My man. Nobody is stopping him. And nobody can stop you. Never miss a chance to play in the rain. Never shut down in the face of fear. Never stop strengthening your mind. If you want something you've never had, you have to do things you've never done. If you're struggling to find the beauty in your storm or you just want to prepare for the next rainy day in your journey, reach out to me for a performance boost and get some personalized coaching and encouragement. It is my job to give you a chance to get anything you want in life. All you have to do is CHOOSE!
