Olympic Athletes have something that you don’t. They are among the one to ten percenters that certain people complained about some years ago. They even set up tent camps and refused to move. BUT the movement sputtered! Why did that happen? Because they definitely did NOT have what Olympic athletes AND successful entrepreneurs have!
Watch this week’s video as I explain with stories from the 2016 Rio Olympics what they got that we all need!
You know, even the idea of the Rio Olympics survived criticism and negative and sometimes very negative worldwide public opinion.
The stories I tell about each of the athletes in my video highlight these things:
- They got an idea.
- They knew what they wanted.
- They wanted it a lot – they generated a HOT desire for what they wanted.
- They created a plan of action.
- They kept at it no matter what was thrown at them, including concussion, being sidelined for months, leg injuries, foot injuries, etc.
- They triumphed over the things they could NOT control and arrived where they wanted to.
Rosie MacLennan, Usain Bolt, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Shaunae Miller, etc. Rosie Maclennan suffered a concussion two years before the Olympics. She had to take off 5 months. Imagine not being able to train for that long. She had to peak FAST! With even more resolve than in 2012, she conquered her mountain and defended her gold medal!
Some of these athletes risked public ridicule and yes, there are a lot of people who say hurtful things and want to express whatever their opinion is, sending out negative energy. Whatever energy you send out will indeed boomerang on you!
But they did what they had to and were prepared to win, even when it REALLY hurt.
You got what it takes too. You got to learn how to dream again. You got to take that desire and grow it and focus on it and make it yours. Then you put in the hard work. Then you work around every obstacle to get to where you want.
Ironically I was challenged by a Wifi problem before I got on Facebook Live to record. It took a few times trying to get on FB when I decided to just go with the flow and move offices. Of course I prefer my own beautiful office but I wanted to get on the air MORE.
So I CHANGED. When you change your thoughts, then you change your brain.
If you want to be part of that 1% or 10% who are fabulously successful and do what they want, then you got to follow the steps that Olympic athletes take.
You can do it!

We cannot afford to wait for MDs to catch up! I have to become the advocate the activist doctor because no one else is ready to step in. With the tragic murder-suicide of McCann Utu Jr due to inept “management” of his Post Concussion Syndrome, it is paramount that we must do things differently. No more lives so needlessly lost!
