Mental Toughness

MFCEO 007 Your Success Requires Time and Tenacity

Success has 2 ingredients:

1. Mental Toughness

2. Time

Mental Toughness in a single phrase:

Do It Anyway.

Here is a useful reframe for your internal voice when shying away from beginning, or continuing, due to your internal self-talk around the success of others:

• “(So and So) has it easier than me because (*fill in the blank)…”

Here is what you need to know.

• 1000’s of So and So’s through history had it much harder than you, and many have it much tougher than you right now, and they are doing it anyway.

So tell that weak internal voice of yours: &%#* you, I’m not quitting.

Start. Learn. Adjust. Never Quit.

Do it Anyway
