Competition:    [kom-pi-tish-unh]  - rivalry between two or more persons or groups for an object desired in common, usually resulting in a victor and a loser but not necessarily involving the destruction of the latter.

Don't you ever say that "I'll try."  Instead, say that "I'LL DO!"    Second place is the first loser.  Think about it......If there are two countries at war....what happens with the one in 2nd place????  Enough said.

ALWAYS AIM FOR FIRST PLACE, regardless of what it is you are trying to accomplish.  Plan better than your competition, work harder, sacrifice more.  THAT... is success.  Work when your competition is sleeping.  Work when your competition isn't.  Work when it really means something to you. 

There has been more than one instance when someone wanted me to train them, and the only time that I had available was at 5:00am.  "Wow, I can't do that...it's too early."  My response was very simple....."How bad do you want to get in shape?"   Put yourself in a position to laugh at someone when they say that they have "had a hard day."

Make sacrifices.

What would your attitude be, if you were not scared?  What would your answer be then?

What would you do if something in your life was affected, if you didn't excel? 

How would you feel if someone beat you that didn't deserve it???

Think like this, every day...and all of the time.
