As you slowly open your eyes, look around,
notice where the light comes into your room, listen carefully, see if there are
any new sounds you can recognize; feel with your body and spirit, see if you
can sense the freshness in the air.
Yes, yes, yes, it’s a new day, it’s a different day, and it’s a bright day! And most
importantly, it is a new beginning for your life, a beginning where you are
going to make new decisions, take new actions, make new friends and take your
life to a totally unprecedented level.
In your mind’s eye, you can see clearly the things you want to have, the places
you intend to go, the relationships you desire to develop, and the positions
you aspire to reach. You can hear your laughers of joy and happiness on the day
when everything happens as you dream! You can see the smiles on the people
around you when the magic moment strikes. You can feel your face is getting
red, your heart is beating fast, and your blood is rushing all over your body,
to every single corner of your being!
You know all this is real as long as you
are confident, passionate, and committed. And you are confident, you are
passionate, you are committed! You will no longer fear making new sounds,
showing new facial expressions, using your body in new ways, approaching new
people, and asking new questions. You will live every single day of your life
with absolute passion, and you will show your passion through the words you
speak and the actions you take. You will focus all your time and effort on the
most important goals of your life. You will never succumb to challenges and
hardships; you will never waver in your pursuit of excellence. After all, you
are the best, and you deserve the best!
As your coach and friend, I can assure you
the door to all the best things in the world will open to you, but the key to
that door is in your hand. You must do your part, you must faithfully follow
the plans you make and take the actions you plan, you must never quit, you must
never fear! I know you must do it, you can do it, you will do it, and you will
succeed! Now stand firm and tall, make a fist, get excited and yell it out: I
must do it! I can do it! I will do it! I will succeed!
