The Olympic Mindset

The Olympians have put in such hard work for years and years to get their one moment at the Olympics. The way I see it the Olympians have several common traits. The traits I see among  are hard-working, tenacious, stubborn, fierce and resilient. They are also dedicated, passionate and disciplined.

 

I have found that I have those traits and you have to be to be in this business. I also feel that one best me tough minded and upbeat and be able to pick yourself up when the business is not going as planned. 

 

Some Olympians have changed discipline, I found that I had to change companies to be able to perform the best that I can. I needed to get a change of scenery to keep myself upbeat and positive.

 

I also work out 6 days a week, I find that being fit keeps me at the top of my game and makes me ready for anything. I have also found that I need to leave business at work, it is not always possible. I have set parameters on my time, it is so important to have, at the same time we must be flexible enough to accommodate our demands of our business.

 

The change has been good for me I have great team members who are really know what it means to be a team. Who you surrounds yourself also keeps you in the correct mindset and to keep on course.

 

We sat down and listed our goals for the month. We are going to try different areas of advertising. We have identified where are buyers are coming from and trying to find advertising for those markets. As time progress we will see which ones are working and which ones are not.

 

As the Olympian we have identified target areas and how to work them and then will revisit them to see if they are accomplishing what we want.

Great analogy, Yolanda. And that ability to pick oneself up and move on is one that is critical in life in general.

That's a good analogy about your needing to switch companies to find a more perfect fit, Yolanda.  Athletes often need to switch teams, coaches, or trainers, in order to find those they can train simpatico with.
