Relentless Focus

Mike Shady, July 13, 2022

Jason Selk is one of the world’s leading mental toughness coaches. He tells us that the best among us athletes have a “relentless solution focus.”

Here’s the game he tells his elite athletes to play:

When something goes sideways, give yourself 60 seconds (that’s it! 60 seconds!) to feel bad about it, blame someone for it, etc.

60 seconds. Tick tock. Tick tock. Tick tock.

DING!

Whining over.

Now, it’s time to find a SOLUTION to your problem.

You don’t need to solve the whole thing—and you shouldn’t try to. Just find one TINY thing you can do right now that would move you forward in a positive, constructive direction.

So… What’s your #1 bowling stressor right now?

Give yourself 60 seconds to whine/complain.  Find something Tiny that moves you forward and move on. 

Be Relentless to Win the Day!
