This Blew my Mind

I just wrapped up recording the 4th Episode of Triple Sigma with MLB All Star Mark Melancon. Between him and my first guest, MLB Pitcher Penn Murfee, neither pitcher imagined he would be a Big Leaguer during his childhood.

Some may be surprised they succeeded at the highest level despite their low expectations. But it makes total sense, because their mindset kept them competing in the moment, cherishing their love for the game.

I tell my highly competitive Executive Coaching clients (which is most of them), that we need to find ways to LOWER the stakes in our minds in order to compete at a world class level.

Because you don’t hit home runs by trying to hit home runs. You hit home runs by swinging aggressively at pitches you can hit.

A huge misconception we’ve all falsely believed is that the more you want something, the better your chances are of achieving it.

But that’s how you end up stressed out and overwhelmed.

When you're ready to learn some counterintuitive mental models that just might be the key to your explosive success this year, we should talk.
