Morning Motivator - Your Rise to Greatness

"It is the nature of man to rise to greatness if greatness is expected of him."
- John Steinbeck

I grew up an ATHLETE and around sports my whole life. I am still AMAZED to this day at how GREAT teams play terrible against bad competition and TERRIBLE teams play great against top competition. How is this POSSIBLE?

When I read this quote it really hit home. It is the MINDSET of the team or individual that defines the CAPABILITY. Think about a new job... In the first months its CHALLENGING and then you DECIDE you are good at it, thus EXPECTING greater performance - then what?

Exactly! You start to SHINE. Upon your DECISION that you expect to be excellent, the emergence of excellence follows. Just as in sports, as your personal expectations are CONCEIVED, your performance follows suit.

2 DEGREE SUCCESS STEP:
As we see in sports and professional performance, it is your EXPECTATIONS that drive behavior. This creates a very SIMPLE approach to your success path... Expect BETTER of yourself.
By changing or ENHANCING your attitude about what you are CAPABLE of achieving, you automatically program your subconscious to CREATE more and better opportunities. FOCUS your mind on results and allow your ACTIONS to support your new expectations.

Cheers,
Zach
