#1PercentChallenge – Separating From Average
The #1PercentChallenge has been awesome! Just two weeks in, we’ve had so many inspiring and motivating entrants, all waking up between 4:00 – 5:00 am, and getting in their “separation grind.” @Greffrath_11, @jasdeepsingh64, and @DustinVanLieu haven’t missed a day, including weekends!
There’s not a more peaceful time than waking up before the sun.

Jasdeep had knee surgery in the beginning of the #1PercentChallenge, but still hasn’t missed a day!
Dustin’s up and ready to prove what it takes to separate from mediocrity!
You still have time to enter – the #1PercentChallenge closes September 5th. Each morning you wake up between 4:00 – 5:00 am, tweet “I’m up” to me, @OhoopsProfessor, or @GymRatStatus. Then, between 6:00 -7:00 am, send us proof of grind, via picture or video, which will put you into the prize pool for apparel, and exclusive rights to video and upcoming promotions.
Do What You Have To Do …
THIS is what separates the 1% from the 99%!
A student and I were trying to synch our schedules for our next Skype, but were having difficulties doing so. Finally, we decided on early morning. He lives on the East coast, which is three hours ahead of me. His availability was 7:00 am, which meant a 4:00 am Skype for me! Normally, I’m up at 4:00, but this would be too late for our session … so there was only one choice: 3:30 am wake up!
If you want to reach a level 10, you have no choice but to sacrifice at a level 10. The 99% will only sacrifice what feels comfortable, but rarely gives more. Look at yourself in the mirror, and get honest – are you giving enough? Are you living in your comfort zone? Is your Why strong enough? Does it push you to do what the 99% can’t? Make a DECISION today!
In order to have what the majority don’t … you gotta do what the majority won’t.
The Time Is NOW
What are you waiting for? Your opportunity WILL run out if you don’t seize it now! The 99% are waiting for someone to hand it to them, while YOU, the 1%, are willing to take it.
TAKE IT!

Here's My 1% Interview …
I had a blast on the Golf Club Radio show, with Danielle Tucker!
If you’ve ever doubted yourself … listen! If you’ve ever wondered why, even though you’ve tried so hard to eliminate fears, but they won’t disappear … listen!
We also talked Tiger Woods, and I gave you insight on a PGA Touring Pro I sat down with last month.

1% Mindset On The Air …
Join me Saturday, August 10th, on the GOLF CLUB RADIO SHOW, 11:00 am PST.
We’ll be talking 1% Mindset, Tiger’s mental game challenges, vision, your Why, and more! Reading about the mentality needed to change is different than listening to a passionate exchange with someone. Tune in!
The 1% Mindset, Coming To You Live
Let’s get the 1% Message in front of your team! Separating from average is a mentality, not a hope or wish – it’s a guarantee that nothing or no one will stop you from achieving record-breaking success.
The 1% Mindset is a DECISION, promising to never again, get out worked … never again, allow others to determine what’s possible for you … never again, let fear and doubt dictate choices … never again, waste a second of opportunity … never again, make “realistic” a part of your vocabulary … never again, settle for mediocrity!
My message to your team isn’t cliche, it’s driven by mistakes I was forced to learn from as an adult, wishing I had that opportunity while I was competing. “Just do your best” won’t be mentioned … “Be BETTER than your best” will, however!
Your level of success is determined by how closely you align your actions with your desires – it’s an intentional act, never a coincidence. Together, we’ll create a culture in your program, where excellence isn’t hoped for, it’s expected … it’s not talked about, it’s LIVED!
The 1% Mindset is yours for the taking! Contact me here: dgingo@cox.net.
Time To Choose …
This email was sent to me by a major Division 1 college coach I’m close with – her player sent this to her, declaring a leadership role and a willingness to make this next season one to remember!
Hey Everyone!
It’s August! Which means we will be starting the season soon! Just wanted to let everyone know how excited I am for this coming year and all that we are going to accomplish together. I have been thinking and reading a lot these past few months about mindsets and overall positive energy and would just like to share my thoughts with all of you on what I think will help to make this season great! I would also like to hear any thoughts that any of you may have, your vision so to speak.
Throughout my 3 years in college I have seen a lack of focus and drive, which includes myself by the way. Yeah everyone shows up to practice and “puts in the time” so to speak but how much of this time is truly being used to get better. It’s not like we didn’t have goals as teams, but the focus to attain these goals seems to always slip through our fingers. This year that will be different! Our focus will be sharper, our attitudes will be great so that when me meet obstacles we are able to overcome them. The best part about all of what I am saying is that each and every one of us has a CHOICE! We decide to push each other at every opportunity. We decide to have positive attitudes at every practice! We decide everything in our lives! Yes coaches our are bosses so to speak but still u have a choice to listen and absorb or roll your eyes. Every part of your life is the way it is because of the choices YOU have made! so what will each one of us choose?! A BIG TEN championship or mediocrity. Just remember you control what you think, say, and do! This is what ultimately will give you your success in golf and in life. #choices
Let’s CHOOSE to be GREAT! BEST is our new standard!
