How To Create An Unbreakable Mindset

It was a Monday that I would never forget. I was 10 years old; I played football for the Pancake Panthers. Our coaches were not happy about our loss last Saturday and decided that there would be a lesson learned on this day.

None of us knew what was in store for us. We had finished a hard practice highlighted with whistles blowing, pads popping and coaches yelling but mostly with coaches yelling. As I looked over to say something to my buddy, Chris Leeper, the coaches turned and walked towards “THE HILL.” I stopped what I was saying and began jogging toward the monster.

THE HILL was no ordinary hill. To our 10 year old legs it was more like Mount Everest with knee-high briars and thorns. At the end of each and every practice the entire team would march down the long path in full pads and run up one time. Let me repeat that – we ran up ONE TIME. This day was different. I was the first one up and cheered on my team mates as they pushed with all their might. Then our coach, who I swear was either 8 months pregnant or just really fat in one spot, shouts, “Another ONE!!!”

Little did I know that we would run FIVE Hell Hills that day!

After that practice, I became enthralled with the workings of the human body and mind. There was a point where my muscles could no longer contract yet by not wanting to let my team mates down I kept pushing and grew stronger. Something changed but it was not my muscles, it was my mind. This triggered me into action. I soon made it my mission to learn all that I could to master my mind and achieve massive success in all areas of my life.

Today I have the great fortune of working with some of the most powerful minds on the planet. It is 1:36 p.m. and I have trained a three-time World Boxing Champion, a Super Bowl Champion, and Sylvia Ferrero, a cover model and national champion Women’s Tri-Fitness competitor. Later today, I will train a corporate executive who is in my opinion the greatest business leader in the country. All of these people have influenced and inspired me to another level. They possess what I call an “UNBREAKABLE” mindset.

This is a mindset where no one or nothing can faze you. A flat tire becomes a minor inconvenience. Harsh words and negativity from others are like throwing pebbles at a tank. You become bullet-proof, impenetrable to outside forces.

You are in complete control and you do not have to wait. This mindset can be developed by anyone at anytime.

3 POWERFUL STEPS to MASTER YOUR MIND and Become UNBREAKABLE

I. DECIDE exactly what you want

Abraham Maslow, a legendary psychologist, introduced the six basic human needs. One of those human needs is the need and desire to grow and achieve. Most of the world’s population, squander their time on meaningless activities like television, surfing the internet or gossiping about others. If you want to live greatly then you must define what you want. For example, I train a fashion designer who came to me and threw an explosion of words my way, “Billy, I want to lose this (holding his gut)! I want to see my chest. I want it to be muscular. I never had a chest. I used to be an athlete – I want to look like that again…” He went on and on and he still does before each session. He knows exactly what he wants and he holds a clear picture of his future self in his mind. This is a trait of a super achiever.

II. VISUALIZE with intense desire (that borders on complete obsession.)

Obsession is a word that many people regard as a bad thing, as negative. I do not agree and you must do the same if you are to become UNBREAKABLE. In order to achieve any type of great change including physical change then it is imperative that you create and hold a constant vision of what you desire. You must see it and feel it.

When I was going into my senior year in high school, I was not the most talented athlete and had only started one game my entire varsity career. I wanted to be great and would stop at nothing to get what I wanted. I read a book on sports psychology and followed the instructions without fail. I set five goals for the upcoming season.

1. To be named captain of the team
2. To beat our cross-town rivals who we had not beaten in over a decade
3. To make the play-offs for the first time in 14 years.
4. To be awarded First Team All-Conference
5. To arouse interest from college coaches and play football at the collegiate level

In addition to my extremely intense conditioning program and rigid eating strategy, I implanted a mental conditioning protocol where I visualized myself as having already achieved my goals. So vivid were the “movies in my mind” that I really believed that I was actually living it. I would feel my heart rate increase and a warm, burning sensation course through my veins.

To take this a step further I studied films of our opponents, breaking down each formation and looking for tendencies. Then I found an old cassette recorder. With this device, I recorded my own voice as if I was the announcer of the game. Of course, we always won and I always played my “perfect game”. Each night before I went to sleep I would put on my head phones and listen to the recording. These tapes served as a valuable visualization tool. By the time, the game arrived I felt as if we had already won and it was only a matter of showing up. As you may have guessed, I achieved all of my goals. It was not by accident. This was by design. I had always wanted to excel in sports yet it wasn’t until I trained my mind and my body together that I was able to do so.

III. UNLEASH HELL on your goals.

This step is where most people fall short. I have known hundreds of people who wrote out there goals in their fancy leather planners and are always on the go yet they are in the same place. Albert Einstein once said, “Never mistake motion with action.” A lot people are busy. Yet being busy is not the goal. You must take specific actions towards the goal. I am not going to elaborate here just for the sake of taking up space. This is the point of doom for many. There are hundreds, if not thousands of books and programs on how to overcome procrastination. Those books and programs are for losers. Maybe that is harsh but let’s think about it. Here is someone who is putting their life on hold. So the answer is to do what? Read a book about it? No, the answer is to ATTACK! Decide what you want. Then see and feel what it will look like once you have it. Do this always and really feel it! Then do whatever it takes to get it. Take Action! Unleash Hell! Be Relentless…never, never, never quit!

Let these words drive you to success:

My part is done.

You now possess the answer.

It is in your hands.

Now it is up to you
