Planning, Preparation, Practice And Performance

"How you run the race-your planning, preparation, practice, and performance-counts for everything. Winning or losing is a byproduct, and aftereffect of that effort." ~John Wooden

How are you running the race? How is your planning, practice and performance? Do you plan daily, weekly, monthly, yearly or do you just do what you've always done and get by doing that? Are you practicing your performance? Really? When was the last time you practiced your sales presentation? When?

See, winning takes place in the preparation, not in the presentation. All those years that Wooden coached UCLA, he never spoke about winning and losing, only about maximizing his players abilities. His success proves that the winning is in the preparation.

Winning or losing is a byproduct, and aftereffect of that effort. Do you realize that? Most people don't see it that way. It's your preparation that allows you to win or causes you to lose.  Are you spending enough time preparing or are you just winging it?

So I will ask again, how is your preparation? Stop worrying about making the sale and prepare like a champion for the presentation and you will win as often as Wooden did.  (for those of you too young to remember Coach Wooden, he won 10 NCAA Men's Basketball Championships in 12 years)

A great way to prepare is to join us next Thursday at the "Your Prospects Aren't Paying Attention To You" workshop.  You will learn the 7 steps to gaining and maintaining your prospects attention and always be prepared!

What's Holding You Back?

"Don't be afraid of the space between your dreams and your reality. If you can dream it you can make it happen."~Belva Davis

Are you afraid of that space? Is that what is holding you back? Afraid of the space between your dreams and your reality?  That space is called "the gap."

There's nothing to fear in "the gap."  Anything that you have thought about being able to cross "the gap" or not, it's all just a story that you are telling yourself.  Are you telling yourself the story of your success or are you telling yourself a losing story?  Most people keep reliving all the losses and never create a story about their successes.

If you are dreaming it, you've already been given everything that you need to make it happen. Did you realize that or are you still focused on "the gap?" Do you believe that you can create your reality? Really?

Do you believe in your dream or is it just a fantasy, a place where you can go and wish? Too many people who say they have dreams, just have wishes, never working on them, just wishing for them.  For these people, the bone that gets the most work is the "wishbone."  If you have a dream and need some help in getting it from the invisible to the visible, from the wish stage to the goal stage, send me a message and we can talk about how to do that.

What is your dream? Start focusing on it now and take the first step toward attaining it. Without taking the steps to attain it, it's just a wish.

Are you dreaming or are you wishing?

Planning, Preparation and Practice


"How you run the race-your planning, preparation, practice, and performance-counts for everything. Winning or losing is a byproduct, and aftereffect of that effort." ~John Wooden

How are you running the race? How is your planning, practice and performance? Do you plan daily, weekly, monthly, yearly or do you just do what you've always done and get by doing that?  It is said that those who fail to plan are planning to fail.  Is that you?  Are you practicing your performance? Really? When was the last time you practiced your sales presentation? When?  Remember, practice is not doing it in front of a prospect, it's doing in front of your mirror with your recorder recording it.

See, winning takes place in the preparation, not in the presentation. All those years that Wooden coached UCLA, he never spoke about winning and losing, only about maximizing his players abilities.  He so believed in preparing his players that the first day of practice, he showed his players how to put on their socks so they wouldn't get blisters!  His success proves that the winning is in the preparation.

Getting the sale, the promotion, the job is simply the byproduct of your planning, preparation and practice.  It is the aftereffect of that effort.

So I will ask again, how is your planning, preparation and practice? Stop worrying about making the sale and prepare like a champion for the presentation and you will win as often as Wooden did.
