Mental Toughness - Game Theory "I play to win but I am not afraid to lose"
The difference between "playing to win" and "playing not to lose" - there are the thoughts of fear and defeat and the thoughts of victory and happiness - its these very thoughts that direct or misdirect us; there is a tremendous relationship between fear and success.
While negative thoughts create an aura of gloom around us, the energy radiated by the positive thoughts is reflected in our actions and body language.
So when you play to win, you play with an inspiration and when you play not to lose, you play out of desperation - and the results are different in both the cases.
I would apply the same to our professional lives - do you love your work or do you work just to meet your monthly bills - because the results would be tremendously different in both the cases and I won't be wrong in saying that to a very large extent, it is this factor only which makes a successful professional.
For a sales person, when you start your typical day, there can be two scenarios:
A] another morning - have to rush to office; once at office - Oh my God, I've to meet ten new prospects today - face this heat outside, drive in this mad traffic, carry my heavy office bag, wait for my clients, maybe the client wont meet me, maybe my client will shout at me, maybe my efforts will go waste.
B] another morning - a big smile on your face as you start your day and reach office - once at office - today I'll meet ten new prospects today - I'll help them to know about my products/services and this shall help them in their businesses - I'll actually help them succeed in their (professional) lives - the waiting time: thank god I've time to recollect my previous discussions and today's communication with the client.
That's what makes all the difference.
