Musings using Vince Young, Matt Leinart and Reggie Bush
Whether or not you were glued to the TV watching football bowl
games, you have surely heard about the athletic prowess
demonstrated by Vince Young, Matt Leinart and Reggie Bush.
Whether relaxing at the spa or at the sports bar, TV brought you
three stunning examples of success. Success = determination +
focus + excellent physical conditioning + clarity. These three
men have them all.
As life coaches we work with intelligent, well traveled clients
who keep tabs on current events. What caught our attention about
the recent bowl games was the coaching that took place. All the
athletes in these games all skilled; they wouldn't be in that
position if they weren't. Whether or not you're a football fan,
their example and those of their teammates, was inspiring. Let's
look at the four elements of success and see what we find:
Determination:
What are you willing to do to succeed? Are you willing to turn
off the TV (except for bowl games, of course!), to let the
answering machine take the calls, and rearrange parts of your
day to make what you want a priority? This can be easier than
you think if you are clear.
Clarity:
Our favorite way to get clear about what you want is to identify
what you don't want. Make a list of all those things you are not
fond of, really let yourself wallow in the negative for a bit.
Review the list, and ask yourself what you would like, changing
all those negatives into positives.
Focus:
How far can you get with it / without it? Know how it feels when
you have an eyelash in your eye,
a splinter in your pinky, or a
rock in your shoe? These things get your attention - you focus
on them. You are constitutionally capable of focusing. The trick
is to focus on what you want with the same intensity. The other
good news is you are in charge of choosing where you'll put your
focus.
Physical condition:
Are you willing to get off the couch? Are you willing to park in
the far corner and walk across the lot to the mall? It is not
necessary to have a gym membership to improve your fitness
(although it's an option). You can walk around the block, lift
weights with canned goods, or volunteer to walk the dogs at the
local SPCA. Being in good physical condition boots your fitness
as well as your morale.
When you stop trying to be someone else, really let your
individual light shine, you can do whatever you want. Coaches
support you to be the best you you can be. That's the essence of
the coaching we saw during the bowl games. You may not choose to
use your spare time on an athletic field; however, you can use
their inspiration to find what you love and pursue it. Combine
this type of support with the above four success ingredients and
you're good to go.
