Latest / Mental Per4mance Daily with Adam Rutz / Doing A Little, A Lot
Transcript
- Adam Rutz: One of the greatest lessons I ever learned about success came from my mental performance mentor, Brian Kane. And it's a lesson I first learned back in 2013 when I started listening to his mental performance audio programs long before I ever had the opportunity to work with him one-on-one. Do a little a lot. You see, success in life isn't built by doing something extraordinary every once in a while. It's built by consistently doing the right things. Over and over and over again. Think about it this way. You've got two people who want to get in the best shape of their lives. One person goes to the gym once a week, every single Saturday, works out for three and a half hours. The other person goes to the gym consistently, every single day, putting in 40 minutes of focused work while making recovery part of the process. Who do you think is going to build better habits and have a better chance of sustaining those results? It's the person who makes consistent training. And look, the same principle applies to just about everything we do in life. Whether you're trying to improve your health, grow your business, become a better athlete, or improve relationships, success is the result of winning actions consistently repeated over time. You don't become disciplined by having one disciplined day. You don't become confident through one great performance. And you don't become successful. By occasionally putting in a tremendous amount of effort. You build those things through repetition. And here's where people struggle. It's human nature to procrastinate, to put things off, to tell ourselves, we'll start tomorrow or next Monday or when life slows down. But then tomorrow turns into next week, next week turns into next month, and before you know it, you've wasted so many opportunities to improve. So here's your challenge for today. One winning action that moves you closer to the person you're trying to become. Make it simple, make it repeatable, and commit to doing it consistently. Because those small actions compound and over time they create extraordinary results. Stop trying to do a lot every once in a while. Start doing a little a lot. Mindset, process, discipline, execution. That's Mental Performance Daily.
