In this motivational monologue, the speaker explains that there is a significant lag between adopting the behaviors of a winner and actually achieving winning results. The larger the goal, the longer the delay before success becomes evident. People often expect rapid, large-scale outcomes, which leads to unrealistic expectations because they fail to align intensity with an appropriate timeline. The speaker shares a personal strategy that focuses on input rather than output, allowing them to extend their time horizon indefinitely. By concentrating on personal development (the "goal is me"), external achievements eventually follow, mitigating the frustration caused by delayed results.

There's this huge time delay between when we start behaving in a way that a winner behaves and when we start winning. And the problem is that the bigger the mountain you're trying to climb, the bigger the W you're trying to get, typically the more delayed it is between when you start behaving like a winner and when you start being a winner. It happens slower than you expect and then faster than you can imagine. And I think that's the part that everyone misses, is they expect the faster than they can imagine and they imagine really big. And so then their expectations are really big, really fast, but they take the intensity and they don't apply it to a timeline that's appropriate. What has worked so well for me and why the input over the output focus has been so powerful is that I can extend the time horizon basically indefinitely because the goal is me and then the external goals occur.
