685 | Belief Will Take You Further Than Talent

In this episode, we talk about how belief will take you further than talent.  Even more, than this, it requires that you have belief to get started. It is our job to raise our beliefs to match our vision, not just the belief but also the identity of the person who can bring that vision to life. I heard this Henry Ford example, he could have said I can’t build cars because if they break down, we have no mechanic shops to fix them, no idea where we will make the tires or the parts to fix them, he could have said: “there’s no point in starting.”  There has to come a moment where you will believe in yourself, and your ability to be resourceful enough to figure it out when you get there. And Mike Tyson’s quote, “Everyone has a plan: until they get punched in the face”, your plan will only take you so far. 

In this episode, we discuss: 

1)  ​​Your job is to raise your beliefs in yourself to match or surpass your vision, and no one can tell you how to do that except practice, trying something, feedback, etc.  But what happens when you surround yourself with people who lower your beliefs in yourself? Don’t let the underperformers pull you down.

2) We all know lots of athletes with tons of talent and no belief or work ethic.  Talent isn’t enough, so don’t use your belief in yourself for having talent as the reason to start or not to start moving toward your vision.
