3 Tips to Unlocking Unprecedented Success!
Why an Unwavering Attitude is Your Greatest Asset in Life and Business.
Almost everyone strives for success in their lives. Whether in terms of personal achievements, career goals, or financial stability, we all want to be successful and fulfilled. However, the journey towards success can be challenging and filled with obstacles, challenges, and failures. One way to overcome those challenges is to have an unwavering attitude. Maintaining a steadfast and resilient mindset in the face of adversity is not just important but essential.
An unwavering attitude helps us remain focused on our objectives, enables us to persevere through difficult times, and ultimately drives us toward achieving unprecedented success in personal and business endeavors. Resilience allows us to bounce back from setbacks.
Let me ask you a question on a scale of 1-10: How is your Attitude today? What about your Discipline and determination? Take the time to assess your Health, relationships, and business.
Looking back over the past six months, I realize it’s been a journey. My wife Olivia, during an endoscope, was diagnosed with esophageal cancer. For those who have not met Olivia, she is very active with Mountain Biking and hiking our Pups, eats healthy, and doesn’t drink or smoke.
So when the doctor came in and shared that he was sure she had Esophageal cancer, we were a bit in shock. Looking back over the past six months, I feel that what made the difference in Olivia beating cancer was her Attitude, Discipline, and determination in this challenging situation. And the Team of doctors at the Barrett Center at the University of Cincinnati.
Liv had to mentally prepare for what she was about to face physically. Rounds of Chemo, 28 days of radiations on her throat, which would make it challenging to swallow, and a significant 7-8 hour esophagectomy surgery.
It was all about her Attitude!
Her Attitude was that she would fight through each situation, understanding that she would experience significant pain, but she had to keep moving forward. She was fighting for her life!
In addition to Liv’s Attitude, I am most proud of her Discipline, whether it was how she would eat enough calories and protein in a day or even an hour when she couldn’t swallow, her determination to walk our pups two miles after chemo treatments when mentally and physically challenged, or her determination to get up out of bed when in the ICU after a grueling 7-8-hour surgery. Liv is healing from surgery and is as determined as ever to return to her Mountain Bike.
Why am I sharing this story with you? Liv’s story will inspire you to examine your Health, relationships, and business.
Attitude, Discipline, and determination are three words that can fuel your success, and they are all in your control.
Here are three tips to help you make a meaningful difference:
Set Clear Goals and Stick to Your Plan
The first step on the path of Discipline is setting clear goals. It is where you take control of your life, defining success in concrete terms and devising a systematic plan to achieve these goals. It involves focusing and holding yourself accountable to your daily schedule and tasks, which could include making a specific number of calls, personalizing follow-ups, or enhancing product knowledge. Remember, Discipline is choosing your long-term goals over short-term comfort in challenging times. This sense of control and capability fuels your determination and drives you towards success.
Develop Consistent Habits and Routines
The power of routine is critical. Consistently following a structured day allows for efficiency and effectiveness in your sales strategy. Determination shows when you maintain client outreach, manage your CRM diligently, and practice your pitch or playbook even when leads are not converting as expected. Determination is the persistence through the mundane, trusting the process even when immediate results are not evident.
Learn, Adapt, and Overcome Setbacks
Your Discipline and Determination can be the difference-maker during times of failure and setbacks. In sales, rejection is a common occurrence. Approach each ‘no’ as an opportunity to learn and refine your approach. No, it means Not Yet. Stay determined to persist despite rejection, and be disciplined in analyzing your strategies, adapting to feedback, and improving your techniques. The real test of determination comes when you don’t give up at the first sign of difficulty but rather see it as a stepping stone to eventual success. This resilience and determination sets you apart and keeps you moving forward.
Remember, Discipline is the foundation of sustained effort, and determination is the thrust that propels you forward amidst challenges. Attitude is Everything! How you approach each situation with I can, versus I won’t will have you feeling more in control. In the competitive sales world, these qualities are beneficial and essential. They can create an unstoppable force in your sales career and personal accomplishments.
