    20 Ways to Get Mentally Tough

    20 Ways to Get Mentally Tough

    (Excerpt from Training Camp: What the Best Do Better Than Everyone Else)


    Keep Your Vision Alive

    Here's a question I bet you've never been asked before. At what mile do most people quit a marathon?

    Productivity and Attitude

    I'm the only one who does anything around here!  Several years ago I was on a late-night television show in New York City.  For some strange reason, they wanted me in the studio that afternoon at 4:30.  I walked in and was stunned by the small size of the reception area.  It contained a couch for three, a chair for one and a sink, refrigerator and coffee maker...

    Know Whose Dish You Are Serving

    “The secret of a successful chef is to put yourself in the customer’s position,” says Ramsay. “By that I mean thinking about what they want.”

    Do It Today And Do It To Win

    “The only difference between a rich person and poor person is how they use their time,” says Kiyosaki. “The poor, the unsuccessful, the unhappy, the unhealthy are the ones who use the word tomorrow the most.”

    Great Opportunities Are Seen First With The Mind

    “The rich invent money,” says Kiyosaki. “Great opportunities are not seen with your eyes. They are seen with your mind.”

    Learn To Mind Your Own Business

    “Many people confuse their profession with their business,” says Kiyosaki. “To become financially secure people need to mind their own business.”

    Make Your Money Work For You

    “We go to school to learn to work hard for money,” says Kiyosaki. “I write books and create products that teach people how to have money work hard for them.”

    Reinventing Yourself is Risky but Rewarding

    Some critics contend that there is nothing especially unique about Fuller’s recipe for success. Instead, they say he has simply capitalized on the phenomenon of disposable pop. What they fail to realize however, is that despite all outward appearances, Fuller has time and again reinvented himself.

    If Your Job Does Not Excite You, Find a New One

    Fuller was born the son of an RAF pilot who later became a teacher who was passionately enthusiastic about founding schools. It was that passion that took the Fuller family to West Africa. Simon, along with his brothers Kim and Mark, spent much of their childhood growing up in Ghana, where their father would establish schools.

    Make Sure You Are Clear On Your Purpose

    t is said that those who know Simon Fuller either love him or hate him. On the more favourable side, his role in the music industry has been compared to the late Brian Epstein, the Beatles’ manager responsible for the great British Invasion. On the other hand, Fuller has his critics who denounce him as someone who has sullied the music business with talentless artists and made fame a characteristic that can come irrespective of talent.

    Think For Yourself

    “The first thing you should do is throw away that store-bought map and begin to draw your own,” says Dell. “It’s through curiosity and looking at opportunities in new ways that we’ve always mapped our path at Dell.”

    How To Performance Manage Deadbeats!

    Uh oh! You thought you hired someone who would turn out to be a superstar, but it turns out he’s nothing more than a deadbeat! He frequently calls out and doesn’t schedule time off in advance and does just enough work to stay on the company’s good side - but not enough to make a valid contribution to the team.

    Fear or Faith

    Do you know what Fear and Faith have in common? A future that hasn’t happened yet. Fear believes in a negative future. Faith believes in a positive future...

    Leave A Strong Impression

    “Dress shabbily and they remember the dress,” said Chanel. “Dress impeccably and they remember the woman.” Chanel understood the importance of appearance to getting ahead in the business world. Looking her best wasn’t just a matter of wanting to feel feminine or being attractive for Chanel, it was also a way to gain respect.

    Be Bold

    “In fashion, you know you have succeeded when there is an element of upset,” said Chanel.

    Be One Of A Kind

    “In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different,” said Chanel. “People laughed at the way I dressed, but that was the secret of my success: I didn’t look like anyone.”

    Try Something New

    “Don’t be afraid of the trial-and-error approach,” wrote Lauder in her 1985 autobiography as a piece of advice to would-be entrepreneurs. “Trust your instincts…create your own style.”

    Do It Yourself

    “I love my product,” said Lauder. “I love to touch the creams, smell them, look at them, carry them with me. A person has to love her harvest if she’s to expect others to love it.” Because of Lauder’s love for her company, she took a very hands-on approach to its operations, getting her hands dirty in everything from production to marketing to sales. She understood the importance of hiring a good team, but her desire for perfection and quality drove her to want to control all aspects of her company, at least until it got too big for her to handle alone.

    Go After What You Want

    I think fantasies are for the birds, Klein once said. Anything I wanted to do, I did. If theres something I want, nothing stops me.

    Use Failure As A Catalyst for Success

    Luck is a dividend of sweat, said Kroc. The more you sweat, the luckier you get. Despite all his hard work, Kroc was not always a lucky man. From his early days in starting up McDonalds to even after the chain was a well-established global presence, Kroc experienced his fair share of failures. He was not immune to disappointment; what set Kroc apart from his competitors, however, was how he learned from his failures and bounced back.

    Go Big or Go Home

    If youre not a risk taker, you should get the hell out of business, Kroc once said. He didnt build a franchise empire with over 3,000 stores in just ten years by sitting back and repeating the same formula that had worked once over and over again. Instead, Kroc strove to constantly improve his company and retain his place at the forefront of the industry by taking advantage of new opportunities. Even when there was big risk involved, Kroc stared the gamble in the face and rolled the dice.

    Take Your Business Seriously

    I believe in God, family, and McDonald's, said Kroc. And in the office, that order is reversed.

    Make It Count

    Work is futile if we cannot utilize the experience we collect in one life in the next, said Ford.

    Work Together

    Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success, said Ford. If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself.
