If you’re not either currently living your dreams or feel absolutely certain about path you’re on leading to achievement of your goals and dreams here’s why. Don’t take this personally, or do take it personally, either way what it boils down to is your standards for what you EXPECT are too low. One of life’s truisms is that we absolutely get what we expect to get. Set your personal standards on average and that’s exactly what you, everyone, and everything around you will be. On other hand (and yes, choice is yours) be kind of person who insists on above average EVERYTHING and you’ll find yourself living in an above average environment.

Oh and that gift that you left somewhere back there? It’s still right there waiting for you to pick it up. But first you gotta—

Raise your standards.

Thanks for stopping in.

From this policy of never acknowledging scoreboard grew inside of me a complete lack of focus on it. I would go into matches with personal goals that had nothing to do with what was on scoreboard or how match turned out. What I began to figure out was that less energy I put into keeping score more I had to put into playing game. Which I guess made me a better player because better I got at controlling this focus more I played on Saturday and Sunday. (Which is a good thing.) Mentally letting go of scoreboard freed me up to just play, which I had no problem doing once I figured this out.

Here's meat.

When it comes to what you focus on, realize it's your decision. In life you can choose to focus on what everyone else thinks is important, or you could pick 2 or 3 things for yourself. Things that are important to you. You can be told what's important and accept what you've been told, or you could figure out for yourself where your focus should be based on what works for you.

Do not be afraid to be different. That's beauty of system were all in here together. We're all going to exact same place but we all have different road maps for getting there. Your journey shouldn't look exactly like mine, because my journey is not your journey. How you get to where we're going is between you and your internal guide.

In closing I want to encourage you to be you. Examine things that work for you and do more of them. The things that don't work for you, discard them. If being focused on scoreboard doesn't work for you then forget it exist. Establish your own scoring system. Make your own rules. Define things in your own terms. Of course there is an established frame work within which we must all work, but I have found that borders of this frame work are a whole lot further out than they first appear to be.

Don't wait to be led to where you want to go, be your own leader. Go there.

Thanks for your time.
