Back in junior high school I played quarterback. Coach Moressi would ride me like a crazy bull every practice. At the time I hated him, but as I reflect back, I love and respect him for his passion to make me a better player and most important a better person. He would get up in my grill at least once during practice. "Hoyt, your are the leader of this team and you are acting ordinary! Put something extra into your efforts." He pushed me to exceed my gifts. The extra effort paid off for us. We won a lot of games and as former NFL Jets quarterback Joe Namath said, "When you win nothing hurts." Coach always made me do more than anyone else on the team. Coach would randomly say to me, "do you want to win Hoyt?" I have incorporated that culture into my life, the tankdiesel model. Look at the picture that I have posted. I do not want to be a common yellow practice range ball. Do you? I want to be the ball that a champion like Tiger Woods tees up to win The Masters. I do not need to win I WANT to win. In my mind wanting something is a key component to success. My wants drive my success. Being ordinary will not cut it in sales. I put extra into all areas of my life like Coach demanded. Extra puts me ahead, escalates me to the top. Extra is something most sales people will not commit to. The path of least resistance leads to last place. Not an area that I am familiar with. Winning through extra efforts, strategy, energy, herculean efforts, laser focused action pays high rewards to me. I put extra into ordinary and now I am extraordinary. Have you looked at your actions? Are they ordinary like others or are you adding extra to your ordinary? March on to financial freedom by being extraordinary.
