From Chapter 1


WHY DO PEOPLE FAIL?



"But primarily, I think people fail because of a fear of failing.  YOU have heard this before, but let me qualify the phrase "fear of failure."  People driven by this fear are so focused on doing everything possible to avoid a setback that they loose balance with their personal, familial and spiritual lives.  I know this type of person well.  I have seen him in the mirror for 40 years.  Some people will tell you, "you have to have balance".  The problem is that they can't tell you how to obtain balance, and more than likely, they have their own struggles with the scales of life.

Success is an ongoing series of steps towards a desired goal that, in time, allows us to look back and gain confidence for future steps.  I often tell team members who are anxious about off-target results, "If the the past has been a glorious path, why would the future be any different?"  This is something I also have to self-coach on when my anxiety builds around some less-than-miserable result or a new challenge".



In the final analysis, your attitude determines your effectiveness in everything, every time! LGL www.LuisLobo.Biz
