ACT

"The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity"

- Amelia Earhart

WIN OR LOSE

There are any number of differences between winners and losers, one distinction that I like, from John Assaraf is;

"The winner says, it may be difficult, but it's possible. The loser says, it may be possible but it's too difficult"

It all comes down to attitude!

SEAL's continued

“Let’s talk this out.”

There is nothing like the camaraderie between SEALs. Nothing else even comes close to paralleling the tight bond, unity and cohesion found amongst men who live, eat, train and fight together. Having said that, some people just need a good whoopin’ once in a while to keep egos in check, and teammates are no different. Confronting difficult issues and learning from them is what turns mediocrity into greatness.

The SEAL Team Non-negotiables continued

 “Sorry I’m late.”

You don’t hear this in a culture of accountability because expectations are set, and if they’re not met then there are repercussions. Not to say that expectations don’t change, but it’s not for a lack of effort in fulfilling them.

SEAL Teams

From the Entreprenuer web site article, 10 phrases you won't hear from a SEAL Team, relative to life and business as much as special operations;

 “I can’t do that.”

If somebody had said this in the team room then he would’ve found himself cold, wet and duct taped. Unless a physical handicap is present, replace your “can” or “can’t,” with “will” or “won’t.” There’s always a way. Find it.

It is the Starting Point.

The father of all modern coaching and personal development, the author of Think and Grow Rich, got it right many decades ago;

The starting point of all achievement is desire. 

-Napoleon Hill

At times we can forget how really important our job is as parents or grandparents
