Often, what makes the difference between winning and losing is almost imperceptible. An Olympic sprinter measures victory in milliseconds. A soccer game is decided when the goalie blocks a shot by a fingertip. The first mountain climber to reach the summit often owes the achievement to a timely burst of adrenaline. Identifying what can give that edge - that extra drive - is the difference between achievement and disapointment; between excellence and mediocrity.
The main reason many people never "go for the gold" is because they are waiting for a feeling or "sign" that they are ready. One of the great lessons of No Guts, No Gain!® is that actions precede - and determine - feelings. In other words, you will feel like a "self-starter" only after you begin to act like one. In addition to offering important information and advice, the No Guts, No Gain!® program will give you proven skills to help you steer your life in a more positive direction. By the end of the program, you'll know how to:
* Keep yourself motivated
* Avoid procrastination
* Increase your self-esteem and decisiveness
* Overcome "fear of failure" once and for all
* Learn from your mistakes
* Learn how to handle the pressures and challenges of building a successful business or professional practice
No Guts, No Gain!® presents a new way of approaching and dealing with life's challenges. It provides an overlay that you can effectively apply to any prior career skills building or training you may have received. The program's goal is to help you become more assertive, more effective in your personal interactions and to make you feel more comfortable as a higher achiever.
Have you ever felt as if invisible forces prevented you from enjoying a more productive - and rewarding - career and personal life? Well, in a manner of speaking, they are. No Guts, No Gain!® reveals the 21 Success Barriers that frequently stand in the way of individual achievement. More importantly, you will learn how to identify the specific barriers that are blocking your path.
