BREAKOUT

Hello and welcome everyone and hello to November...let's begin
with a quote from Napoleon Hill..."every adversity, every failure,
every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit."  And let me add (author unknown) "when you change the
way you look at things, the things you look at change." I have
studied, researched success/failure for countless years and have
come to this conclusion...people, for the most part, handle failure
better than success. This conclusion applies to business, money,
sports and life itself. People who can't get ahead, don't succeed,
don't reach that elusive goal are afraid of the spotlight, afraid of the
podium and elect settle for less. The people who can't finish things,
leave things undone...always "later" waste energy and end up wasting their lives. Habits are good, providing they don't turn into
ruts. Breakout is critical in change. First to the Finish Line...where
Survivors and Winners always meet. That's a great place for us to
meet.

Have a meaningful life everyone...JimmyO

Undefeated

Welcome to all of you...I have received many questions, requests and comments regarding motivation, "how to raise the bar," and "how to get better." Some of you have attended one or two of my motivational speeches. So, let's address that elusive intangible...motivation. Start at the beginning, who you are and what you are. Don't be a phony, don't fool yourself. Must have goals...daily, weekly, monthly, annually. Every night, while falling
asleep, I think about my training and sport I'm training for. I compete in seven different sports. Most everything in life is measured by time and distance. I change my routine often...from
eating time, workout time and training. This is key to my developing mental toughness. I always envision myself winning...
not if I can win. So, my training is about winning. Every workout
is my challenge. No phone, no radio. The one constant...aging. Father time is undefeated! The other constant...Self Image, who am
I and what am I all about. Next week, ultimate workout!
Have a meaningful life everyone...Jimmy O
