How far up the success ladder you climb is determined by your mindset. Mindset is something everyone agrees is important, yet it has a way of tumbling down the list of priorities.
info_outlineJeff “Griff” Griffin calls himself the best unknown speaker you’ve never heard of. After a 40-foot fall from scaffolding crushed his spine, and his college football dreams along with it, Griff was faced with a decision: Stay down and wallow in self-pity, or dream new dreams.
Griff chose to dream new dreams, and has since gone on to become a Paralympic silver medalist and world-renowned inspirational speaker who helps people achieve impossible goals.
You don’t have to be paralyzed physically to be paralyzed by things like doubt, fear, and complacency.
If achieving impossible goals still feels impossible to you, tune into this episode for Griff’s tips for taking what seems impossible and making it reality.
Where Achieving The Impossible Starts
Griff’s dream was to play college football. But after falling off a ladder while painting a barn, Griff lost the use of his legs, and found himself at a crossroads with two clear choices: Let his new reality stop him, or find a new way forward. Griff’s gone on to do things people told him were impossible for a man in a wheelchair to do, because he chose to believe there was another way. Making the “impossible” your reality starts with what you believe.
The Problem Isn’t A Problem
When challenges pop up, most people focus on the problem and the excuses about why they can’t solve it. For Griff, it would have been to focus on the problem of being in a wheelchair. Instead, he focused on finding solutions. If your goal seems impossible, it’s because you’re focusing your time and energy on the problem. Shift to focusing on the solution. And tune into this episode to hear about Griff’s simple solution framework to solving any problem.
When Others Say You Can’t
James’ grandfather once told him, “When someone tells you they can’t, what they’re really saying is that THEY can’t.” Griff not only agrees, he’s proven over and over again that other people’s limitations about him aren’t really about him. Listen to this episode and you’ll hear incredible examples of where other people--even Navy SEALS--put limits on Griff that he went on to bust.
What You Don’t Want
Because it’s often easier to get clear on what you don’t want than what you DO want, what you don’t want is where your focus goes. But when you put all your energy into focusing on what you don’t want, that’s exactly what you get more of. That’s why Griff developed a technique to use what you don’t want to identify what you DO want, so you can focus on that instead. Tune into this episode to hear how it works and start getting what you want instead of what you don’t.
Holy Habits And A Righteous Routine
Entrepreneurs and peak performers eager for results come to Griff asking for the tips, tools, and skills they think it takes to get where they want to be. But Griff says there are two critically important areas you’ve got to address before you can even begin to go after your results. Listen to this episode for Griff’s tips on what these two areas are, and why achieving that “impossible” goal without them may very well prove impossible.
