3 Characteristics That Spur Success
If you watched the Olympics and Paralympics, there were a few great personal characteristics that were apparent in the athletes that competed.
PASSION. The passion of the US Athletes to succeed at the highest level was apparent when you saw them on the boat on the Seine River; full of confidence and committed to being the best they could be. And they did succeed winning over 500 medals. They made us very proud to be an American.
VISUALIZATION. This is a characteristic we speak about in our development programs. In watching the men's gymnastics event we saw a young man on the bench, head covered and seemingly "out of it". He was visualizing what he would do in his performance, as "cleanup hitter.” Well he nailed it, with an outstanding performance that secured the gold medal for men's gymnastics. Very impressive.
COURAGE. The courage of the US Paralympics Team was extraordinary. Swimmers with one arm or one leg or no legs competing in the pool. The men's basketball team competing in wheelchairs. The women's volleyball team competing while sitting on the court. Unbelievable. What courage these athletes exhibited!
