When it comes to reaching the next level, I’m black and white on the subject … you either do what’s uncomfortable or remain where you are. You sacrifice easy for difficult or continue complaining about what you don’t have. Dive into a pool that has no water in it, knowing water will somehow appear before hitting bottom, or climb back down and wallow in fear.

You either do or you don’t, period!

Will you complain about what others have achieved, focusing on how “unfair” the world is, or will you  be an example for your kids and peers, showing them you attain what you work for? Luck doesn’t exist – it’s a result of your consistent thoughts, efforts, and ability to never quit in the face of adversity. You make your own luck.

There’s no grey area when striving for a plateau the 99 can’t fathom reaching. You either will or you won’t. The 1% only have one option!

If you want new, you gotta DO new. If your goals are achieving what the majority can’t … you gotta do what the majority won’t!

Everyone wants to be “successful,” but very few will sacrifice old habits to make it happen. It’s not supposed to be easy … it’s supposed to be agonizing. Accept the fact that rising to the top is what reaching the top is all about – the highs and lows, laughs and tears are what makes the trip so exhilarating. Sure, sticking out your chest to break the finish line is worth the fight … but remember, just on the other side of that finish line is another race. It never stops. You never “get it.” You only get better AT it, improving the times of your race – the efficiency of your journey.

Think differently, act differently, create a lifestyle in which only the 1% can relate. Surround yourself with like minds who push and support you during the pain and struggle. This isn’t a mantra or a resolution … it’s a way of life!

The 1% are Driven By Impossible.

Statistics don’t make you … you make the statistics!

They’re made from people who don’t believe they can go beyond what the numbers have said for years. Only a small, special few have come along and said to themselves, “I don’t care what the stats have said in the past, I can and will change them!” Why can’t that be you?

If you don’t believe you can go above and beyond what others have done in the past, regardless of the odds, you’ve instantly limited your success. I used to believe in statistics and only thought I could reach a specific level in my life, but over time and consistent battle against that instinct, I’ve proven myself and THEM wrong!

Don’t believe what they tell you – if you want something, and can’t stop thinking about it 25/8, 366, then you must attack. Statistics were created by those who couldn’t see beyond impossible. The 1%, however, are Driven By Impossible. Be the 1%!

It’s not going to be easy, but it IS going to be worth it … if you’re willing to TAKE it!

Will you do what needs to be done, or are you too afraid of a little discomfort? Are you driven enough to endure massive frustration, or will you quit after the first drop of sweat? You choose!
