Now more than ever, the power and practical purpose of mental toughness is being brought to light... Those who have it, are powering through. Those who don't, are struggling more than they want to.
 
If mental toughness is so important, how do you build it? And even further... how do you build it at a time when there is so much uncertainty?

Success won't always do for you what you thought it would. Sometimes you will win, yet you'll feel more lost, depressed, and uncertain. How do you handle these emotions? What does this mean? How can we get ourselves to feel good, no matter the wins or losses? Listen into today's episode, where I break this down in a special feature from a Killer Instinct Q+A call.

You've boldly taken on so much...you're a leader, responsible for results, and a true lion in the jungle. You’ve given up the security so many crave so that you can be truly free...the problem is that right now, you are overwhelmed with the amount of things that are simply outside of your control. People, circumstances, changes...it makes you feel hopeless and helpless, and these feelings are leading you to turn to vices, procrastinate, and even shirk your responsibilities.
Your challenge is giving up the childish need to control the wrong things, and instead focus on complete self mastery... the ultimate high and feeling of control that is elusive to so many. You must take real control, and condition these feelings until every cell of your body stands at attention to you... your body is a slave to your mind, and your mind becomes the fearless captain.

Isn't it nice to be acknowledged for your growth? To be told “Good job”....”I’m proud of you”.

In this episode I break down an excerpt from a classic book by Sun Tzu, "The Art of War". Too many of us try to go for the “Kill”, when we should be taking advantage of each win, particularly the easy wins. Doing this ensures momentum; and with momentum, we become unstoppable. #BARS

If you do not find a way to do this, your fear will either debilitate you now, or later. The choice is yours. We must be able to know how to deal with our animal nature, and channel it in the right place. I show how in this episode.
