"Get the gleam gentlemen, get the gleam," said Marty
Schottenheimer.
Have you prepared, mentally, for success? Mahatma Gandhi
wrote, "Strength does not come from physical capacity. It
comes from an indomitable will." After all, how can you
succeed without having absolute clarity of purpose?
Jack Canfield describes strategies for success based on
knowledge of the subconscious mind and how it works. The
subconscious mind works on two levels. It can solve problems
within set time frames if you pose the challenge with an
expectation that the results will be met. It can mentally
prepare you for a meeting or event by running through the
visual situation you feed it, and imagining the results as
true. In this capacity, it can also bring about immense
change in your life by your consistent thought process. The
subconscious mind does not interpret what you feed it, but
responds to strong words or emotions. Napoleon Hill
discovered this power in his book “Think and Grow Rich.”
“Think” is the most powerful principle upon which his book is
focused.
John Naber, multiple Olympic Gold Medalist defines
motivation: "The excitement and enthusiasm you get whenever
you imagine what it's going to feel like when your personal
dream actually comes true." Adopt an attitude that prepares
you to win.
Marie Dalloway of Performance Media in Arizona recommends the
following: "As a general guideline for self-talk use two
types of statements: encouraging statements and instructional
statements that focus on skills. Encouraging statements
bolster confidence. "You can do it," "You're good," "You're a
champ," are examples of this type of inner dialogue. Self-talk
that focuses attention on performance skills provides the
other positive form of internal dialogue. A tennis player
might say to herself, "Stay focused," "Watch the ball," "Get
into position," and "Quick preparation."
