Playing To Win

    Just like wrestling, and in all professional sports, in real life, being good is not good enough. Being great is not great enough either. No matter how awesome you are, you can always become more awesome. This is what bettering your best is all about. You are already the greatest. You are already the very best. Just keep growing yourself as the very best.

  Champions play to win. They understand the value of evaluating and making whatever changes are necessary to continue to improve. The evaluation process is about improving.It never ends. I evaluate my blogs, and my other publications as an author. After I publish each of my blogs, I evaluate how I've written them. I evaluate the response from my affluent readers, and their feedback to help me come up with a much better idea to write my next blog much better than my previous one that I know my readers will love reading, and will love gaining alot of value out of.

 I evaluate my wrestlers, the equipment the facilities, and even the "product"- that is the match environment and entertainment value as an assistant youth wrestling coach. Although evaluating my athletes performance as a coach in practice is an essential component in evaluating their progress, nothing tells a truer tale than seeing them perform in matches. On every team, there are probably some athletes who perform better in practice. Some who seem to save it for matches. It often takes several matches before you can get a true read on how a wrestler is performing. One lesson I've learned is to not give up on wrestlers who seem to fall flat in practice.

 I recently received my copy of the book in the mail entitled "Midas Touch." by Donald J. Trump and Robert T. Kiyosaki. What I've learned from reading this book, and from growing my own online business is that many entrepreneurs work hard building a business, but only a few build a brand. I agree with Robert when he said "Building your business into a brand is essential to developing your midas touch." A business is just a model, a brand is who you are and what you stand for. It's the type of value you deliver. That's what I've learned what being a brand is all about.

 Playing to win is all about change, and all change involves an element of risk - risk of the unknown, and risk of failure. But change, whether you like it or not is inevitable. A look at yourself in the mirror will tell you that. The goals you set for yourself, and the thoughts you think will tell you that as well. To bring about change in yourself is not the easiest thing in the world to do. It takes courage, it takes guts, it takes a great deal  of desire, self-discipline, concentration and effort which is why so few people actually change significantly in their lifetime.

 In this day and age, change is a MUST! We're living in tough times. People going to be nasty to you. People get hurt all the time. True character comes out in tough times. Unfortunantly the character is not nice most of the time. It's viscious, it's mean. It can be a good thing to use to get people off of your back.

 Let's stay focus, and focus hard.

 Well. That is all that I have for today. Thank you for reading these very powerful words.
