How To Become A Better Performer

Figure out what drives you and then do everything in your power to make it happen. Welcome to the Millionaire Success Habits podcast. All success starts right here. Today. I want to share a thought process of Just do it anyway. Do it if you have a headache, do it. If you don't feel like it, do it whenever everybody tells you you can't do. Do it when you feel overwhelmed, do it when you feel underwhelmed, do it anyway. All right, let me tell you what that means, guys. So, God, I'm dating myself, but Michael Jordan, and I know Bree, Brody, and most all of you watching greatest basketball player of all time. There's still no one better as I'm filming this. And I got to be alive and young during that whole era. I watched every championship game. I watched the Dream Team when they played the Olympics. They were winning the Olympics, like 105 to 12. I mean, it was. It wasn't even like the best games in the Olympics were the scrimmage when they played five on five, right? So Jordan, he's like greatest of all time. And about 10 years ago, I bet to say from now, Bri, you were probably about 2 years old, I got invited by Michael Jordan and a friend is to have dinner with him in Park City, Utah. So, of course, I jump on a plane. I fly to Park City. We go to his private golf club. It's only like we're the only ones in the restaurant. We have a private seat. I end up sitting next to Michael Jordan. We drank some pinot noir wine. They smoked cigars. I didn't because I would die. Kids don't smoke cigars, though. You get motion sick, just like dad. That's what it felt like when I. The only time I tried cigars, I tried tobacco. Chewing tobacco once, too. I vomited for two hours. So learn my lesson on both of those. Anyway, I sit with Michael Jordan, and I get it right from him. And this is the prime example of what I'm trying, the lesson I want to share with you today to do it anyway. Professionals do it with a headache. Professionals do it when they don't feel like it. That's why they're professionals. That's why they're elite athletes. That's why they're successful business owners. That's why they have great families and they're great parents and great spouses, and they're in good shape because they do the things, even sometimes when they're not feeling good or don't want to. And this was a prime example that I heard directly from the greatest Basketball player of all time. About one of the greatest games of all time now, I think. And you, Brody, you're a fact checker, so you'll probably go check this out. But I think it was game six. The Chicago Bulls are playing the Utah Jazz in Utah. The Bulls are up. The Chicago Bulls with Michael Jordan are up three games to two, I believe. And four games clinches, clinches it. So they play a game. Michael Jordan goes up to Park City, Utah at the time. Now, park city was about 40 minutes away to keep. Michael Jordan was probably the most. I think they said he was the most famous person on the planet back then. Isn't that crazy? The most recognized, well known person on the planet. So they had to hide him up in Park City. And this is what he told me. He didn't know if it was the flu or. At 11 o' clock he was really hungry and he ordered a pizza and he thought to himself after it was probably the pizza sitting on the shelf all day and 11 o' clock at night to like, I'll just give the person ordering the pizza that one. He eats the pizza, wakes up next morning so sick, like vomiting, sweat coming off. If you ever go to YouTube, you could probably find it and watch this game where he's just dying. He's laying on his back, he's half time, he's, you know, in the locker room just laying down sweating and sick as a dog, vomiting like it was either the flu or he thought it was food poisoning. So why am I telling you this? It's game six. If they win, they win the championship. Like a movie. You couldn't, the movies couldn't direct a better ending. At the buzzer, jump shot. Michael Jordan sinks the winning basket and they win the championship. Now this was right after his father died. His father was murdered. So a lot of emotions in there. This is the one. If you watch the video, he's hugging the trophy and he's crying, sweat coming off him. So why am I sharing that, guys? Because he didn't get to be the best in the world because he gave up easy. He didn't get to be the best in the world that he didn't feel like working out that day or shooting, you know, foul line shots, foul shots or just playing, okay, Playing like at a mediocre level. No, he got to be the best in the world because he did it even when he didn't feel like it. He did it anyway. He did it with a headache, he did it with the flu. He did it vomiting and he made an impact on the world. He made basketball the most fun game ever. I mean, everybody, even people who didn't think about basketball, he set records, he got the most championships. But Michael Jordan is in the spotlight and everybody got to know him. But there's a million Michael Jordans in all different areas. There's the Michael Jordans who start companies that make a massive impact on the world, that change things, that create inventions that help save the planet, or electric cars, or just simple things that help moms, help dad, help business thrive. And I want you to know that each one of those people, when you go to a restaurant that's thriving, you go to a business that's thriving, you see an online business that's thriving, you go to a mastermind, you go to a workshop. Any one of those things you see over and over and getting bigger. There's someone at the head of that with a whole team under them that probably has the same culture that do it anyway, even when they don't feel like it. And how does that get into your soul that you do that is you got to find a passion and a reason around it. I get up every day and fight for a lot of reasons. Two of the biggest reasons are Bri and Brody, my two children, my wife Lisa. By the time you watch this, I'm getting married as, like in the next couple of weeks. My wife, Lisa. The impact I make on other people, the desire to grow as a human being and become a better version of myself, to be a better example for you guys. That drives me every day. And I'm going to do it anyway. I want to be. I'm 50. I want to be in great shape. I'm planning on having more children. I want to be a great dad to Bri and Brody, to you guys. I will work hard. You think I feel like going to the gym at five o' clock every single morning? No. But I do it anyway. Some days I don't feel like going to work, but I do it anyway because the world needs what I'm delivering. Like, find in your heart what you want at the end of your life. If you could be known for a few things, what are they? And then do whatever it takes to get there. Because here's what I know. I've never met anybody who says, maybe next year or that's too hard or I don't feel good today or I'm a little tired or it's not convenient or it's raining or it's too hot. I've never met that person. Well, simultaneously met the happy version of that person, the person who doesn't do it anyway. To me, I don't see full of bliss. Even so, with that said, what in your life are you slacking on? Even though you want it to be a part of your future, I'd identify it today. And if it's something where you just don't feel like doing it every time, then I'd rethink it. Maybe that's not for you. Maybe you're not supposed to go there. Maybe it's not the right relationship. Maybe it's not the career choice that you wanted. Figure out what drives you and then do everything in your power to make it happen.
