The "Treadmill" attitude.


"The only thing that I see that is distinctly different about me is I'm not afraid to die on a treadmill. I will not be out-worked, period. You might have more talent than me, you might be smarter than me, you might be sexier than me, you might be all of those things... But if we get on the treadmill together, there's two things: You're getting off first, or I'm going to die. It's really that simple.
 
You're not going to out-work me. It's such a simple, basic concept. The guy who is willing to hustle the most is going to be the guy that just gets that loose ball. The majority of people who aren't getting the places they want or aren't achieving the things that they want in this business is strictly based on hustle. It's strictly based on being out-worked; it's strictly based on missing crucial opportunities. I say all the time if you stay ready, you don't have to get ready."
 
-Will Smith 
 
This is a mindset that I have recently gained, and today I want to share it with all of you.  Do you remember the quote I shared with you a while ago?  The one that stated: "When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you will be successful."  Well this goes right along with that.  The difference is this quote compares yourself to the competition... however 90 percent of the time your competition is yourself.  Are you going to be better today than you were yesterday?  Well I will tell you this much... I will die trying.  If we truly gave everything we had...  If we never held back because of fear... If we would just push away all of our daily distractions and have this mindset... well, we would never fail.  Period.  It is just not possible.  Take a look at your mindset, make adjustments where needed, and press on.  Best of luck!
