Olympic Champion Speaks Mind On Developing The Winner’s Edge

Leave a comment

 

“Olympic Champion Aly Raisman has won 6 Olympic Medals. 3 of them gold.In London in 2012 and in Rio in 2016.  She is considered one of the most accomplished American gymnasts of all time. In her recent 60 Minutes interview shared her important lessons.

Aly dreamed it, saw it, rehearsed it and dedicated herself to it! She authored the book Fierce: How Competing For Myself Changed Everything describing her process. If you’d like to read how Aly put her mind to work for her get her amazing book.

For your convenience I have shared the link.

Her coach told her she worked too hard to not be an Olympic Champion because she was a little afraid. She decided he was right. She describe what it was like to know she was going to do well. She also emphasized the difference her thinking made on performance.

What You See And What You Say Inside Is What You Get Outside

‘I felt like I was like floating. It felt like it was effortless and I never felt like that before but it was like the best feeling in the world. I learned a valuable lesson that day. In the all around final I was nervous. I doubted myself and I made a mistake. In the floor final I knew I was going to hit the best routine of my life and I did.’

The Mind Is As Strong As Its Weakest Think – Focus – Certainty

Certainty, knowing you are going to do it, comes from right conditioning and right mindset. It comes from daily practice in creating what you want. Hoping, wishes, wanting doesn’t cut it. Fear, doubting and worry don’t help. BUT Certainty does. Knowing does.

When you become certain, when you know you will succeed, you will succeed! She returned to the Olympics and won Silver in the all around in Rio. She says, ‘I finally competed in an all around without any major error. I finally competed for myself and I finally believed in myself. That was such a good feeling it was really empowering for me.” Isn’t this cool You bet it is. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Why Most People Fail To Succeed!

Leave a comment

“People don’t succeed because they don’t want it enough. They don’t succeed because they don’t believe they can or will. They don’t realize it is ‘they’ who will make it happen. ‘If it is to be it is up to me.’ The saying goes. They don’t act in their own best interests.

People procrastinate. They lack enthusiasm and passion. They don’t believe they deserve it or have what it takes to make it happen.  They are busy doing anything and everything, but what works. They feel busy, but they are not productive. They aren’t moving closer to it.

They are distracted, not focused. Busy doing all sorts of things, but not in pursuing their dream! They let things interrupt and lead them astray. They listen to others who tell them they can’t. The bottom line is, they want it but they don’t want it enough! To have it, you must HAVE TO have it! Most people are wishy washy, hence, most people remain average. Others around them succeed while they do not. What about you? Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

You Are The Power Plant So Act Like It!

1 Comment

“You have a ‘big dream’ you intend to make happen. You desire it in a big way. This makes you take action to get it. This action creates more desire, which in turn creates more belief, faith or certainty you will do it. YOU create the steam you need. You create momentum!

A power plant doesn’t have energy. A power plant creates energy. You are the power plant! You create the energy you need to make your dreams and goals come true. This is why successful people are driven. They are driven to succeed. Get it? They create momentum!

They work hard. They work tirelessly. However, they don’t consider it work because they are pursuing something they love. They are passionate about it. They are so obsessed they do more than the average person would, while the average person remains average.

The More You Do The More You Are Capable Of Doing

If you want to succeed you must learn how to create that passion and drive! You must create the love for what you do and the faith you will continue on until it is yours. Then you won’t be upset or stopped by circumstances and challenges. Nothing gets you down.

Instead, you’re motivated to go beyond obstacles and make your dreams come true! THIS is HOW YOU make things happen. You create the energy! It doesn’t come to you. You create it! You stoke it! You keep it alive, burning bright, until you succeed. You are the power plant! It is up to you. Create it!  Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

What Does Warren Buffet And Bill Gates Say They Needed To Succeed?

Leave a comment

“I enjoyed watching Becoming Warren Buffet on HBO, a new documentary. It documents his journey from a whiz kid to one of the world’s wealthiest people. Many of Napoleon Hill’s principles are exemplified in Buffet’s practices and rise in riches. A good show.

Interestingly, the documentary chronicles Buffet and Bill Gates meeting. Both men are asked to write down on a piece of paper what one thing they felt made them so successful. What was the practice or characteristic that, for each of them gave them that edge?

Independent of each other both men wrote down the word ‘focus’.  Focus is defined as ‘the center of activity or interest’ and ‘the state or quality of having or producing clear visual definition’. Hill stated one needs a Definite Chief Purpose, or Aim, that was well-specified.

The Mind Is As Strong As Its Weakest Think – Concentrate – Focus

He further stated this Aim must be held in one’s mind, to the exclusion of all else, as a burning desire. It’s by will-power that one maintains focus on this Aim until one successfully brings it to fruition.  You must persist and apply his principles to succeed.

Both Gates and Buffet considered focus THE main ingredient for accumulating great wealth. Perhaps, you should, too. Perhaps, you should read Think And Grow Rich for yourself. Then, put into practice the principles history has proven are responsible for making more millionaires than any other book. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Stop It Drop It Let It Come To You!

“How do you get ahead and succeed? What kind of mindset do you need? These questions plague many people. The answer is quite simple. For most people, the problem is they don’t do what they should to be effective. They don’t do what is necessary to succeed.

They don’t commit nor persist. You must learn to maintain focus on your desired result and not waver. Locked on laser like focus is necessary. Focus on the dream or goal as completed. You are already it. You are doing it. You have it. Focus on this and feel good.

Feel how good it feels! Don’t be concerned with ‘how’ to make it happen. Stop attempting to dictate ‘how’ you bring it about, ‘how’ you manifest or attract it. Focus on the incredible feelings of having it. Vibe high. Let go of ‘how’. Stay focused on it already as yours!

Get Out Of The Way – Stop Preventing Yourself From Having

Yes, take steps toward getting it but let go of insisting on how it comes to you. It could come in expected or unexpected ways. Most likely, you won’t even see it coming, but it will. If you stay focused and dedicated it will surprise you how it shows up. So, let go and allow. Keep the faith. Stay focused and do not waver. Enjoy and delight. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

You Must Over Come The Solution To Your Problem!

Leave a comment

“Often, what you think the ‘fix’ is, isn’t. Your best reasoning may be lazy, faulty, and based on inaccurate info, or simply the result of prior past limited conditioning. ‘The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry. The saying goes. You think you know the solution, but don’t.

That is the reason you must overcome the solution to your problem. Because sometimes the solution creates more unintended consequences than the original problem created consequences. It is the equivalent of pouring gasoline on a fire. Hence, Einstein’s quote.

‘We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.’  If you always do what you always did you will always get what you always got. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing again and again expecting different results.

When Nothing Is Going Right – Go Left – Do Anything Else

We must learn new ways to think. We must overcome our own reasoning and blind spots to go beyond what we know, and what we don’t know, to discover new possibilities and modes of thinking and behavior that lead us to the desired results and outcomes we want.

We must learn to manage our thinking, be positive, and think in new ways. We need to design our minds and our lives to begin getting the positive good we want to get. Once we learn how to do this our results can skyrocket. We move forward positively and can create and live our best life ever! This is possible. The opportunity is before you. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Try Doing The Opposite For A Change

1 Comment

“If your inner world is yucky because the outer world is yucky then you need to make some changes. If your outer world is yucky because your inner world is yucky you have changes to make. Keep your inner world positive and optimistic, cuz what else can you do?

Choose to make the inner incredible in spite of what goes on outside and you may just transform everything. Since you can’t control the outer world much, you might as well learn to control your inner world. Right? Consider that for a moment. Then…

Consider this:  some people think ‘realty’ is outside of them. Their circumstances are real. They consider their inner world a dream world or  ‘the unreal’ world. They think the inner is some delusion or fantasy.  Well, what if it were the reverse?  What if it is the opposite?

You Are Where Your Thoughts Have Brought You

What if the outer is the delusion and the inner the reality?  Just to change things up if you have ever thought this. If you have done the other version for many years, and you have thought the outer was more real than the inner, then try this on for yourself.

Imagine the inner is the actual reality and the outer is just a dream that you can shape by how you think about it. The more positive you become the more you can positively influence your future. Get it? It is an exercise! Try this at least try this for 90 days, or more, to give it a bit of a chance. After all, you’ve done the other for all this time. Practice something new! Discover something new! Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

How You Create The Future You Want To Create?

Leave a comment

“How do you create the positive future you want to create? It isn’t magic, but when all is said and done, it may seem like magic. You create your positive good by staying focused on it. You focus on the invisible, that which exists in your imagination. You keep your focus.

Don’t let circumstances deter or disappoint you. Everything that humans have ever created first existed within the imagination. It is translated into reality by staying true to your dream and allowing your own intuition to develop a plan. You may adjust the plan many times along the way. Stay true to your vision. You will bring it about as you persist in your vision. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Emotions, Focus, Forgiveness, Letting The Past Go

Do This Since You Can’t Change The Past

1 Comment

“Have you harmed someone in your present? What can you do to make things better? Have you harmed anyone in the past; physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually? Has someone harmed you? To take care of yourself and move forward you must make some changes.

You cannot go back and change the past. You can however make amends to yourself and others for past wrongs. You can forgive yourself and forgive the others. If they are no longer alive you can release them in your heart and mind. You can change yourself.

Having learned from past mistakes you can change your present behavior for the better. By genuinely doing this you can move forward with a clean conscience. You do whatever you can to correct the situation. You take the actions you can to make things better.

If You Want Your Life To Change You Must Make Some Changes

You release and let go. You forgive yourself for hurting others and yourself. You forgive and let go of others for hurting you. Then having released the persons, the memories and feelings, you can learn the lessons you need to learn from having gone through this.

Ask yourself what you needed to learn from this experience? What is the positive good you get from the lesson of that situation? Discover it and  you can begin to appreciate everything.  Instead of suffering, you let go and begin to move forward positively.

You can begin to create an whole new future. You re-create yourself in light of the positive lessons you glean from the undesirable circumstances back then. Leave the past in the past. Free your mind from any uneasiness. Free your heart. Resolve to do better.

Always Do What You Always Did You’ll Always Get What You Got

Apply the positive lesson and you will do better. Be positive. Learn to feel good. Be grateful. Consider your learning an opportunity and blessing.  You can change how you feel about any circumstance and person by changing what you choose to focus on. It is always up to you. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Are You Ruled By Mythic Thinking?

1 Comment

“Positive thinking and optimistic thinking does not necessitate that it ever become unrealistic. That is mythic thinking. That is a great misunderstanding about positive thinking. Positive thinking does not mean turning a blind eye to problems. It has never meant that!

Blind thinking, as some have said, is to imagine ‘there are no weeds, there are no weeds’ when there are weeds. That is not positive thinking. That is ignoring the weeds.  Positive thinking is ‘I can weed the garden. I can learn to weed. I can make it beautiful.’ Get it?

One can ask, ‘what needs to be done to make this the best garden? I can take care of this’. Thought precedes action so the appropriate follow up to ‘I can weed the garden’, is to then weed the garden. Many people misunderstand what it means to think positively.

If You Think You Can Or You Think You Can’t You Are Correct

Many misconceptions abound.  Positive thinking is most useful in creating what one wants. You can create and design your plans. You aim at the target so you can hit it. It can even include knowing what you don’t want to clarify what you do want. YUP! It does indeed

You can’t build a building knowing only what you don’t want in it. You have to know what you do want! An architect draws very specific plans! Looking at the plans one might decide the closet should be located elsewhere. You know what you don’t want.

Then, switch focus from ‘what is wrong,’ to the ‘right’ you intend to pursue and create. Example aside, positive thinking is incredibly useful in righting wrongs; the ‘wrongs’ in your personal life and in society. Stop tearing down, but recognize what you won’t tolerate.

Then make a plan to create what you want instead. What you resists persist, but you can overcome the problem. You can even overcome the solution to the problem to make things better than you could otherwise previously imagine. Get it? It’s important. Do you?

The More You Do The More You Become Capable Of Doing

What do I mean by overcome the solution? Sometimes, the obvious solution isn’t  the wisest or the most efficacious. Sometimes, the very solution one is attempting to utilize IS the problem or exacerbates the issue. This can be overcome by better thinking.

Positive thinking means you don’t let the negative thinking get you down or derail you from useful, well constructed plans or goals. It means you put your best ‘mindset’ on, manage your thoughts, and put your best foot forward. You function realistically and optimally.

In spite of odds, you continue to prevail. You persist and see it through. You adjust as necessary along the way. Use positive thinking! If you don’t know how, or if you struggle to, you can learn and train yourself to think more positively. You can make positive thinking  a reliable habit. If you want to be happier and more successful this is a must! Learn how to transform yourself and celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes
