Winners Don’t Play to Win…
Summary
- If someone tells you to take time off after a big success, they might not understand the true mindset of a winner.
- The love for the game, or any pursuit, should be the primary motivator, not just the accolades like championships.
- Winners are back at practice the next day because their commitment isn't just about a single achievement.
- Achieving a championship or any high-level goal often comes as a byproduct of consistent, passionate effort over time.
- Staying focused on what you love to do will naturally lead to success, and the triumphs along the way are secondary benefits.

How To Take Action
I would suggest finding what you truly enjoy and focusing on that. Just like winners who love the game, you should pick an activity or goal that you're passionate about. This way, it won't feel like work, and you'll be happy to do it even after big wins.
A good way of doing this is to start small. Choose something you can work on every single day. It might be a small part of your business or a personal skill. The key is consistent effort.
Remember, it's not just about winning or getting one big achievement. It's about loving what you do and doing it over and over again. If you keep at it, success will come as a byproduct.
You should also avoid taking breaks just because others think you should. After a big success, don't immediately take time off. If you're doing what you love, why stop? Get back to it the next day. Keep practicing and improving.
To put this plan into action:
- Identify what you love doing that’s related to your business or personal growth.
- Set a small, daily goal that relates to your passion.
- Commit to working on it every day, no matter what.
- Remember to focus on the love of the game, not just the wins.
- After a success, acknowledge it, and then get back to work the next day.
By staying focused on your passion and being consistent, you'll reach your goals, and those wins will be just the cherry on top.
