Morning Motivator - Freezing in the Heat

"Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt."
- William Shakespeare, (1564-1616)

In the final 10 seconds of the game, who do you WANT to see get the ball? When the deal is in FINAL negotiation, who should make the call?

The amazing thing about pressure is that it causes the BEST (or worst) in us to emerge. Some people find an inner STRENGTH that allows them to rise to the occasion. For others, they FREEZE under the heat. What causes this VARIANCE?

Mostly, its FEAR. For some, extreme ANXIETY. Yet, this CAN be overcome...

2 DEGREE SUCCESS STEP:
EXPERIENCE is a great teacher in overcoming the FREEZE we clash with under pressure. As we LEARN from our experiences, we gain the CONFIDENCE to look passed our doubts.

By focusing on ACTION and LEARNING, we can easily THAW the FREEZE of self-doubt.

Next time its "crunch time"... Wouldn't you LIKE to be the one the gets the call!?

Cheers,
Zach
