- Show up, work hard and listen.
- No excuses and not explanation afterward. When the other guy sees you had some indecision, he’s going to try to negotiate. No is a closing door, no negotiation. Don’t explain, don’t make excuses.
- People who don’t pursue their own dreams probably won’t encourage you to pursue yours.
- If there’s a 2 percent chance that something will work, and a 98 percent chance that it won’t, he’ll take the 98 percent risk just to show he took the challenge and did what everyone else said couldn’t be done.
- Success and failure are 100 percent mental.
- A Cleaner never sees failure because to him it’s never over. If something doesn’t go as planned he instinctively looks for options to make things work a different way. He doesn’t feel embarrassed or ashamed, he doesn’t blame anyone else, and he doesn’t care what anyone else says about his situation. It’s never the end, it’s never over.
- If you ever find me and a bear wrestling in the woods, help the bear.
- Make the choice to turn “failure” into success. If you team doesn’t win a championship, if your business falls apart, if you don’t achieve something you worked for, move to the next step in you evolution. Remember who you are, and how you got this far. Listen to your gut. What is it telling you?
- The Cleaner strategizes for a different outcome.
- You tried your best or did you do your best? Huge difference. People who admit defeat and say they had no choice just aren’t serious about success, excellence, or themselves. They say they’ll try and then give up when doesn’t work. Fuck try. Trying in an open invitation to failure, just another way of saying; if I fail, it’s not my fault, I tried. Tell me what you did. Do, or don’t do. Do it, and if it doesn’t work, do it again. Did you do it this way? That way? Did you explore every idea you had? Is there anything else you could possibly do to turn things in your favor?
- A Cleaner can’t never accept it’s over. But he does recognize when it’s time to change direction. It is not weak to recognize when it’s time to shift directions. It’s weak to refuse to consider other options and fail at everything because you couldn’t adapt to anything. In any situation, it’s the courage and confidence to know it’s time to make a change.
- To become the best, I had to learn a lot of lessons about always being prepared to change direction, and refusing to get sucked into other people’s opinions of what it means to succeed or fail.
- As you sit back doing nothing because you are afraid to make a mistake, someone else is out there making all kinds of mistakes, learning from them, and getting to where you wanted to be. And probably laughing at your weakness.
-You don’t become unstoppable by following the crowd, you get there by doing something better than anyone else can do it,and proving every day why you are the best at what you can do.
- Why did not you trust yourself the first time?
- Can you get comfortable being uncomfortable?
- The most talented guy working harder than anyone else. (On Kobe)
- No fear of failure. That’s not about the myth of positive thinking. It’s about the hard work and preparation that go into knowing everything there is to know, letting go of your fears and insecurities, and trusting your ability to handle any situation.
- You have to be willing to fail if you are going to trust your yourself to act from the gut, and than adapt as you go. That’s the confidence that allows you to take risks and know that whatever happens, you will figure it out. Adapt, and adapt again.
- That’s how I learned: your figure it out.
- You miss one hundred percent of the shots you don’t take.
- As long as you continue to deny responsibility , you have the added burden of covering your mistake, and you know the truth will eventually come out anyway. Why bother prolonging the drama? You screwed up, admit it.
- Once you start blaming others, you’are admitting you had no control over the situation. And without that control, you can’t create a solution.
- Have the confidence to trust that you can handle anything.
- When you are confident, you don’t care about what others think. You can take your mistakes seriously but still laugh because you know you can and will do better. Cleaners always have the confidence to know they’ll get it right. Accept the consequences and move on.
- If you did it, own it. If you said it, stand by it. Not just the mistakes, but all your decisions and choices. That’s your reputation. Make it count. If you want your opinions to have value, you have to be willing to put them out there and mean what you say. Two things you can’t let anyone take from you: your reputation and your balls. That means accepting the pressure of taking responsibility for everything you say and do.
- A Cleaner never wants to be locked in to one plan. He’ll know the original plan, and he’ll follow it if it feels right to him, but his skills and intuition are so great that he’ll usually improvise as he goes. He can’t help it. He just goes with the flow of the action, and wherever his instincts take him, that’s what you get.
- Will you be ready? Will you have done the work that allows you to step in, fully prepared, and show you should have had that job all along?
- Everyone is given some ability at birth.
- Our challenge in life is to use the abilities we have, and to compensate for the abilities we don’t have. Successful people compensate for what they don’t have. Unsuccessful people make excuses, blame everyone else and never get past the deficiencies.
- Every minute that you sit around trying to figure out what to do, someone else is already doing it. Make a choice or a choice will be made for you. A Cleaner makes decisions because there’s no chance in the world he’s going to let anyone else make a decision for him.
- Over thinking imaginary problems just generates fear and anxiety. There is only a situation, your response and an outcome. Prepare yourself with everything you’ll need to succeed, then act.
- Are you listening to others, or to your own instincts?
- Good things come to those who work.
- It’s easy to improve on mediocrity, not so easy to improve on excellence.
- There are not shortcuts, no luck.
- The guy who started by sorting the mail, or cleaning the restaurant late at night, or fixing the equipment at the gym, that’s the guy who knows how things get done.
- Cleaners don’t care about instant gratification. The invest in the long therm payoff.
- I can’t believe how lucky that guy is, I could do that if… Stop. You could do that if… what? If you put in more time and effort? If you commit to whatever is making it work for him? If you’re willing to pay the price he’s paying? What’s he doing that you can’t do?
- When did hard work become a skill? It doesn’t take talent to work hard, anyone can do it. Show up, work hard and listen. It takes a willingness to be dedicated, to improve, to be better.
- Cleaner Law: when you are going through a world of pain, you never hide. You show up to work ready to go, you face adversity and your critics and those who judge you, you step into the Zone and perform at that top level when everyone is expecting you to falter. That’s being a profesional
