Andy's Wimbledon Win - 5 Steps & Be A Winner Too.

On the edge of my seat most of the afternoon yesterday as I watch Andy Murray achieve something no other British male has achieved for 77 years. Yay!  I'm sure that there were many people before the match who were willing him to win and yet not quite believing he could. I'm so happy that he won and .
with such style to. I will admit to shedding a tear or two after that final point - how emotional was it watching - as Andy said - "try playing it!!!!" 

As a coach when I see people performing to their very best I'm intrigued to understand what makes them so different. Watching Andy yesterday I feel that I have identified in him 5 simple and yet effective steps that has changed him from a runner up into a Wimbledon Champion. You can do it too, maybe not Wimbledon Champion (unless you want) but success in whatever area of life you want.

Firstly, we'll take the training and the diet he has followed as a given.

Blast Through Your Obstacles

In each of us are places where we have never gone. 

Only by pressing the limits do you ever find them.

I love this phrase, I'm a little unsure who wrote it but I really feel that it illustrates what many people chose to ignore, which is that we are far more capable of achieving what we want in this world than we give ourselves credit.

Don't think of a blue elephant!

So, what or who is stopping you from having what you want?  Take a good hard look in the mirror. Who is controlling you?  Everything you do and say your entire being is controlled by your mind. 

Don't think of a blue elephant!
