How to Stack the Odds in Your Favor
Having a bad day? Blow after blow in your work efforts, business efforts and home efforts when nothing seems to be going right?
What you were expecting didn’t come.
No recognition of your efforts.
Nothing is going your way.
I think we can all agree we have felt like metaphorical sh*t has been thrown at us some point in our lives (hopefully not literally). And maybe it’s feeling pretty relevant to you right now.
Rather than being the defeated boxer in the ring, champion boxers recognize small wins. This is a mental shift that separates continuous defeat from continuous wins.
THE ACCUMULATION OF SMALL WINS STACKS THE ODDS IN YOUR FAVOR.
Think about it like this. A poker table represents your life. The pile of chips you have represent the level of confidence you are playing with and is the same for your opponents.
As you’re sitting at this table with just a couple chips while others have full stacks, how would you play?
Would intimidation and fear take over?
Some would suggest to go ALL IN, DREAM BIG. But try this next time you’re part of a “poker table game.” FOCUS ON WINNING LITTLE STACKS.
Ask yourself, WHAT IS IT THAT I CAN DO RIGHT NOW TO MOVE ME FORWARD?
WHERE CAN I PUT THAT LITTLE EXTRA EFFORT IN?
And when you take those small actions that move you forward, your stack of confidence chips builds! THE ACCUMULATION OF SMALL WINS CAN LEAD YOU TO HAVE BIG SUCCESS.
Woody Allen, one of the most decorated screenwriters and directors in Hollywood started building his confidence stack by sharing his jokes to his high school yearbook club. Word of his witty humor caught wind and the opportunity to perform stand-up comedy came. LITTLE WINS BUILDS YOUR STACK OF CONFIDENCE.
Today, Woody has produced and directed over 51 movies.
Imagine what would happen in our life when you STACK THE ODDS IN YOUR FAVOR by ACCUMULATING SMALL WINS.
