Being laughed at or criticized or misunderstood is the price of leaving the herd and producing your magic.

Anything original will disrupt the normal. And so those who feel threatened will find it easier to throw stones at you than send appreciation to you.

It’s easier to shoot the messenger than embrace a revolutionary message, isn’t it?

Misunderstood is the Price Ambition Pays to Become Legendary

Groundbreaking research on elite performance and ultra-achievement has confirmed that keeping a journal on a regular basis boosts mental focus, increases self-confidence, elevates your mental attitude and increases the levels of happiness that you feel.

It’s a fine place to record your gratitude, process through pain, note your victories and reclaim your most luminous self in hard times.

Keep a Lockdown Journal to Magnify Your Positivity

Copying what your competition is doing just leads to being second best.

Only leaders who are willing to think differently can out-innovate everyone around them. Thinking the same thoughts produces the same results. Leadership is all about being The Brave Creative out in front in your marketspace (and your career) versus doing things the way everyone else does them.

Business doesn’t need more copycats. Business needs more Dreamers.

If You're Copying Others, You're Betraying Yourself

Everyone is doing the best they can, based on where they are at on their human journey. Their criticism is awesome soil within which to grow your faith in yourself. And your ironclad trust in your finest instincts. Bless them rather than cursing them. For they are helping your rise.⁣⁣

A Valuable Insight to Help You Understand Those Who've Hurt You

The subject I'll walk you through today is a game-changing method I initially developed through my coaching of ultra-successful people; many of whom suffer from so many distractions in their lives that their productivity falls apart...

...the tool is called The 90/90/1 Rule and, given how beautifully it worked for my private clients, I wanted to make sure I shared it with you.

If you're interested in a morning routine that many of the most creatively and financially successful leaders on the planet are now using, then you really want to listen to this episode now.

You can be like the 95% or you can play in the rare-air, but you can’t do both.

The world belongs to the visionaries. Women and men who refuse to accept what is because they are so obsessed with what can be. People – like you and me – who refuse to succumb to complacency and ordinary and good enough – when they know great lives just around the next corner. We need more in our club. Let’s find them.

The past is a servant and it’s a place to learn from, not a home to live in. ⁣⁣

For you to embrace your next level of world-class, you have to let go of everything you used to be. ⁣⁣

How to Let Go of the Past Forever

Great businesses and world-class lives are not created in a day, but by steady and consistent refinement. So celebrate every win. Because small daily improvements when done consistently over time really do lead to stunning results.

Celebrate the Micro-Wins [and Build-In Rewards] for Sustained Success

Most of my life is spent working with teams in companies – helping grow leaders at all levels. I hear so much talk about "our competitors" and "how hard it is to win in these tough times" and that "the market’s shrinking." 

Thinking about your competition is a waste of time and a loss of minutes that you could be using to innovate and arrive at new forms of excellence. Every minute you spend worrying about and benchmarking your peers is a moment you’ve stolen from innovation, building a better team and growing your own brand. 

Now is a superb time to create even more value for your customers and be of acute use to even more people. Work on your professional knowledge and career skills even more. Listen to audiobooks, podcasts and coaching resources so you leap ahead of your previous leadership self. The marketplace demands [and will reward] your mastery as never before. And you’ll be an absolute standout. Which is what I wish for you.

Why You Shouldn't Focus On Your Competition in 2021
