“Your past is not your potential. In any hour you can choose to liberate the future.” Marilyn Ferguson

Remember the movie “Groundhog Day”? That’s when Bill Murray’s character wakes up every morning and experiences the same day over and over again. His past equaled his future. Everything that happened to him yesterday happens to him again today. His life is utterly predictable.

“You're never beaten until you admit it.” George S. Patton

When the British sprinter John Regis lined up at a Grand Prix meeting 200m start alongside Michael Johnson, Linford Christie and Namibia’s Frankie Frederiks, he figured he’d get 4th place.

“You win some, you lose some, you wreck some.” Dale Earnhardt

When things go well, who gets the credit? When things go badly, who gets the blame?

“Concentration is the ability to think about absolutely nothing when it is absolutely necessary.” Ray Knight

“There are admirable potentialities in every human being. Believe in your strength and your truth. Learn to repeat endlessly to yourself. "It all depends on me." Andre Gide

“True greatness is often revealed through absolute simplicity.”

Try this training technique. But let me warn, you it’s revolutionary! Are you ready for it? Here it is…

Your mind cannot operate in negatives.

 “Your goals, minus your doubts, equal your reality.”  Ralph Marston
The reason I believe so many adults fail to convert the majority of their goals into reality is that they succumb to their doubts.  Our kids set goals.  You did when you were a kid – and you realized a high percentage of them.  Much higher than you do now.

Your mind cannot distinguish between what is real and what is imaginary.

 “You win some, you lose some, you wreck some.”  Dale Earnhardt

When things go well, who gets the credit?  When things go badly, who gets the blame?  If you’re like most people, everyone gets the blame for the latter.  Everyone from competitors, coaches, event organizers, equipment – even the weather!
