EPISODE SUMMARY
When it comes to the world of sport, the individuals who set goals to be the very best at their game are typically the ones who achieve the most. It’s impossible to only train halfway, prepare halfway, and perform halfway and make it to the pinnacle of your game. The greats in any given sport mentally, physically, and emotionally prepare for years to be the very best. And their hard work pays off when they stick to it and never look back.
As you embark on your business niche of choice, your mentality cannot be that much different than that of a professional athlete. No matter what industry you’re in, your goal should be to become the very best and maintain that reputation in perpetuity. Will you always get to the very top? Not always. But doing the extra things in your day-to-day practices will put you in a much better position to make it happen.
