MESSAGE #741 WHAT IT TAKES TO BE #1

Today’s message is especially dedicated to the great Kashka Koralewska in Burlington, Vermont.

Do you know what it takes to be #1?

It’s very simple…

Stop trying to be #1!!!

Greatness lies in your effort and attitude. If you try to be number one, you are putting too much pressure on yourself and you won’t be able to perform at a high level. Work hard and enjoy the process. If you do this, you’re already a winner.

If you do good things, good things will happen.

Focus on the end-result, and you won’t be totally focused on the task at hand, and your improvement will be limited.

And don’t worry about what others think.

Oftentimes we care too much about what others think, but remember this…

When we’re 20, we care what everyone thinks.
When we’re 40, we don’t care what anyone thinks.
And when we’re 60, we realize that nobody’s been thinking about us at all.

Focus on going all out, every day. Enjoy the process and have gratitude for all the big and little things in your life. And make sure you breathe.

It’s okay to want to be the best in the world, but it’s more important to be the best for the world.
