This is one in a series of virtual success coaching and mental strength tips to help kick-start your week. It is intended to enthuse and inspire you to take action so that you can reach your personal goals and personal success.

Objective of this Mental Strength Tip:
To help you understand that in order to achieve abundant personal success, you must be a leader who is focused and fearless.
Your convictions must be so strong you’re willing to bet everything you have on them.
A leader who lives in fear of reprisal and ridicule will fold when the pressure becomes too great. This is the exact time a mental strong leader is just warming up for the challenge.
Let’s Get Started:
“The encouraging thing is that every time you meet a situation, though you may think at the time it is an impossibility and you go through the tortures of the damned, once you have met it and lived through it you find that forever after you are freer than you ever were before. If you can live through that you can live through anything. You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, `I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ The danger lies in refusing to face the fear, in not daring to come to grips with it. If you fail anywhere along the line, it will take away your confidence. You must make yourself succeed every time. You must do the thing you think you cannot do.” — Eleanor Roosevelt
Questions to Uncover Beliefs about Mental Strength Thinking:
- What leaders do you respect the most, and why do you respect them?
- Do you associate great leaders with fear of fearlessness?
- What values are you unwilling to sacrifice in order to stay on the personal success path you’re on?
Unsupportive Beliefs about Fearless Leadership
- People that make waves don’t last as leaders
- If I loss my current income stream I won’t be able to pay my bills
- Leadership by consensus offers greater career security
Mental Strength Beliefs about Fearless Leadership
- The only true leader is the fearless leader, all others are followers
- Courage is the primary mental strength trait of a great leader
- Leaders are willing to stand up for what they believe in
Outrageous Questions:
- Are you willing to be criticized and ridiculed in order to maintain your integrity as a leader?
- Are you willing to loss income because of this?
- How far are you willing to go to defend your beliefs?
Reflective Questions:
- On a scale of 1-9, 9 being strongest, how mentally strong of a leader are you?
- What steps would you have to take to become a stronger leader?
- What would you have to believe in order to become a fearless leader?
Mental Strength Coaching:
The enemy of mental strength is delusion. Be aware the most people will rate their leadership ability far higher than their peers rate them.
My job as your virtual mental strength and success coach is to ask the probing questions and move you into the perspective of objective reality as it relates to your fearlessness leadership ability.
A delusional leader will not consider the above points and questions. They’re to busying saying to themselves, “What could I possibly learn from this?”
Final Thought
The world is full and sheep and partially committed leaders.
What the work need is people to be rhinos, how are bold enough to stand up for what they believe in and refuse to compromise their values and beliefs to the pressure of the mentally weak masses.
If you’d like to get busy on creating fearlessness leadership, pick up you copy of “Develop the Mental Strength of a Warrior” today HERE. This is a fantastic e-book that helps you take control of your thoughts, develop success awareness and helps you tap into the powers of your unconsciousness mind to create the mental strength to succeed at anything!
