Championship Mindset: Strengths to Overcome Anything

In this talk, Trent shares his trademark inspirational approach to change and resilience, sharing an outline that can be tried, measured and strengthened over time.

Commitment – Will you show up? Will you remain loyal and accountable long after the feeling of motivation has left. Identify your unwavering “why” and develop a deeper meaning…purpose is who you are.

Building Emotional Resilience – Recognize facts over feelings by understanding what the struggle produces. Change the narrative; we are always in control of how we define a circumstance. Quitting is not an option.

Discipline – Become legendary at the things that don’t get you a “yes”. Ask yourself where that bridge is taking you – to a better you, the greatest you or a lesser you. Protecting your peace; set boundaries.

Consistency – Success depends on world class consistency, not world class talent – think reliability and trustworthiness.

Faith – The only impossibilities that exist are the ones you create. Give yourself permission to fail; fall in love with progression, not perfection. Visualize the environment. Remind yourself of your greatness.

Heart – Live with the result of failing than not trying. Your perspective can be your power or your prison.
