"Winning isn't everything, but the will to win is everything."
- Vince Lombardi
Over the next weeks, we will witness one of the GREATEST spectacles in America - The NCAA March Madness basketball tournament.
Teams, small and large, are pitted against one another in a "winner take all" format to see who will rein SUPREME in American sport. What makes this tournament so great? EVERYONE CAN BE BEAT!
Just as in business and in life, the BIG guys do not always win. Often, the underdog, the one you never saw coming, the "no-namer," RISES to the occasion and strips the 800lb gorilla of their forethought success.
What does that mean to you? It is the IDEAL example of how to approach your daily activities…
2 DEGREE SUCCESS STEP:
Sure, there is always someone else at the top of the food chain and on the rare occasion YOU are at the top of the food chain, you have the most people attacking you.
Having a SUCCESS MENTALITY and the WILL TO WIN can overcome any amount of budgeting, history, marketing, etc that a company may have in excess over you. By having an EXPECTATION of success, for example walking into a meeting with the mindset you have already won it, you are just closing up details, is what will positively OVERWHELM others into action.
Act with SUPREME confidence. OWN your best skills and share them openly with others. Never, REPEAT NEVER; be afraid to toot your own horn. If you are awesome – SHARE IT!
Besides, when was the last time a WINNER was afraid to talk about success??
Cheers,
Zach
