THE POWER OF A STORY?

What do you want to accomplish in the next 90 days?  If your response is I DON'T KNOW, then we have some work to do.  You have to know what it is that you want before you can begin to take action on it.

After you have a rough idea of what you want, then what do you do?  One of the toughest things about goals, is that we have trouble defining what the real life story would look like.  

You may say, I want to be able to run a faster 40 yard dash and that is your goal. 

But that doesn't have any emotion behind it, it is just a statement.  

If you want this goal to happen, you need to be able to describe the story of running a 40 yard dash.  For example you could say:

It is my senior football test day and there are three scouts from surrounding colleges there to watch me.  I am in my black running gear and I come to the line in my stance.  I have rehearsed and focused for the last 90 days for this moment and I am ready.  I come out of my stance lightning quick and I recite in my head the cues to run faster.  I am booking down this lane and I come to the finish line for my fastest 40 yard time ever.

What do you think will excite you more?

The more real you can create the story, the more power it will have.

MVP Mindset Mental Exercise

1.  Pick a goal that you want to accomplish in the next 90 days

2.  From that goal, create the story of when you accomplish it and be as detailed as possible

3.  Write all of those details down and say them outloud while tying heavy emotion to them

4.  Rehearse this over and over again for today then begin to start each day with this same story and visualize it in your head while tying heavy emotion into it
