When I was a kid I remember going to the circus and being impressed by those tightrope walkers high above my head. Those dudes really took their lives into their own hands and that’s a powerful thing. It stays with me to this day.
I’m always encouraging my coaches to live like those guys, with their lives on the wire. Nothing brings your mission into sharper focus than realizing that one false move can throw your balance off and
You too can life like those tightrope walkers. All you need are these three things to live your authentic self on the wire.
Courage
We talk a lot about courage and think that only firefighters or soldiers have it.
Courage is doing something when it’s not easy or convenient. It’s all about putting yourself out there without getting too worried about the consequences.
Even the dangers we think are out there really aren’t. We get in our own way and courage is putting all that junk aside.
Courage is important because it inspires. It challenges you and those around you. Having courage is necessary if you’re going to step out onto the wire.
You have to be willing to put yourself out there. You can’t care what’s going to happen. Great things will happen if you have courage.
Conviction
Courage puts you on the wire, but conviction keeps you there.
Conviction is a willingness to stand for something more, like a set of principles that you would die for. It means not being satisfied and being driven by those principles in everything you do.
The people with the most conviction will fight tooth and nail for those principles. Is that you? It better be if you want to stay balanced on that wire.
You’d be surprised how many people watch your actions. Having conviction is not only important for you, but the people you’re inspiring. Have conviction and see how much easier being a leader becomes.
Commitment
When you walk the wire, you have to commit. Day in and day out, you have to be there. You can’t stop and go whenever you want.
We all know those people or clients who shortchange themselves and cheat on their workouts. They don’t get healthy and they let excuses drive them.
You can’t be that. You’re on the wire and if you falter, you fall.
You have the power to make your story an integral part of your business. Having commitment is an important aspect of that. Commitment is what keeps you moving on the wire toward success.
