MESSAGE #1198 ARE YOU AN ACTOR?
Today I was tired. But I didn’t ACT tired. In fact, I think I taught some of the best lessons I have ever taught. You see, a true professional is someone who can do their best when they feel their worst. Think of it this way, if you are a waitress and you are having […]
MESSAGE #1197 ARE YOU RUSHIN’?
Someone asked me recently how to stay in the present moment. I said that great athletes tend to slow the game down–they stay in the present moment. They focus on one point at a time. One shot at a time. Deep breaths help. Focus on what you can do get the result you want. Do […]
