Danny Green made a name for himself and into Australian Boxing history last night when he stopped Roy Jones Jnr just two minutes into the first round of their fight in Sydney.

But it was his demeanor only a matter of minutes earlier that really set the scene for what was about to unfold. Danny Green walked out as cool as a cucumber. Relaxed and smiling with his “spinach” on his arm (his daughter), then patriotic as ever, he joined in with the thousands of passionate spectators and sang the national anthem.

And then it was all over with THAT punch in the first round! ”I didn’t surprise myself,” Danny Green said. ”We told everyone that if I caught him clean I would knock him out.”

Does your body language speak volumes? Do you win or lose in a matter of seconds and have no comprehension of what just happened….like Roy Jones Jnr this morning waking up thinking “did I just have bad dream”?

Imagine this all-too-familiar scenario:

You’re on your way to work. It’s been a hectic morning–you overslept your alarm, your kids were crying, you couldn’t find matching socks, and to top it all off, it’s pouring rain outside.

You stumble into the office and everyone knows you had a terrible morning and you’re in a bad mood.

How? Well, first of all, they can see it before you even say a single word.
That’s because your body language says everything about you–before you open your mouth.

>> If you see someone with their head down, shoulders drooping, staring at the floor, you would assume they’re in a bad mood.
>> If you saw someone smiling, head up, back straight, and making eye contact, you’d think they were having the best day ever.

Whether we like it or not, our body language, or our physiology, speaks for us.

Some people might say this is a bad thing–”everyone knows how I’m feeling just by looking at me!”
But I think it’s one of the greatest advantages you can have. Because it means YOU CAN CHOOSE how you feel….Just by changing your physiology. The next time you have a bad day, try picking your head up, straightening your shoulders, and walking like you mean it.

Smile. Make eye contact with people. Laugh. Watch as your mood begins to change. It really does work. And it gets even better.

I discovered a long-lost NLP (neurolinguistic programming) technique that uses physiology to create rapid behaviour change. This technique has been hiding inside of you…til now. And it is the same principle that I used to become 7-time Womens World Marathon Swimming Champion and the same that Danny Green will be remembered after his historic fight last night.

It uses that basic principle of “keeping your head up” and supercharges it… So that you can achieve anything you desire just by changing your physiology. Once you understand how your “Champion Physiological State of Excellence” works, you can use it for just about anything — Bad habits, low confidence, finding love, financial prosperity… You just have to dream it –and then use this simple technique to make it happen.

Find out your secret weapon behind your Champion Physiology that creates excellence… boost your self confidence & self belief through the roof, elminate your stagnant and stuck states, overcome past old limitations, lose the weight you want, quick those cigarettes once and for all…Get In the Zone again and be in control of your life…by programming YOUR mind for success!

Your Champion Action Today:

1. When you notice your physiology weaken with your shoulders dropping. pic your head up, straighten your shoulders, and walk like you mean it….like a Champion!

2. Think of Champions you know who hold their head up…and smile effortlessly. How do they do it?

3. Hang with Champions who connect with you; engaging eye contact, head up. Watch. Observe and Model their behaviour.

and remember:
if you don’t quit…you will make it!

10 Practical tips to help you feel more positive and stay buoyant as you Spring into September.

1. Raise your game. My coach always said; “when the going gets tough, the tough get going” and that couldn’t be truer than right now. This is the time to put in more effort than you normally do, focusing on the activities that bring in business. Remember: Anyone can succeed when the conditions are easy, it’s the tough time that really define us.

2. Turn off the TV. The media delight in telling us how bad things are at the moment and the more we listen the more we buy into their message. If you want to stay positive then don’t listen to their messages. Turn off the news and watch a Billy Connelly DVD instead!

3. Flush the negative people. Have you ever noticed how, if you let your guard down, the grumps of this world are able to bring you down to their level? Now is not the time to spend time with the negative people that you know, seek out the positive ones, spend your time with them and let their positive vibes rub off.

4. Focus on your successes. The simplest way to get depressed is to focus on all the failures you’ve had in your life. We all have failures, challenges and bad times and the more we focus on them the more we feel negative. When we focus on our successes we feel so much better.

5. Get out of bed on the right side. Most people struggle out of bed and spend their first few moments of their day in a sleepy haze. It is time to wake up from your snooze! Zig Ziglar, one of my first ‘Motivational Teachers’ used to preach the following morning routine: Throw the bed covers off, leap out of bed and shout “IT’S GOING TO BE A GREAT DAY”. If you follow this routine I bet you won’t be able to stop smiling all morning!

6. Read some good stuff.
The computer industry used to use the following to describe bad programming: GIGO: Garbage in, Garbage out. If you apply this to your brain you’ll understand why it’s so important to read uplifting articles, books and magazines if you’d like to stay positive.

7. Listen to some good stuff.
I hope your car is like mine, full of motivational and inspirational CD’s. When we listen to the radio not only do we get the news every half an hour but we then have no control over what goes into our brains. Turn off the radio and control your input.

8. Attend uplifting presentations. When you hear speakers tell positive, uplifting stories doesn’t it make you feel better? Attend at least one positive, motivational event every week. Join a networking group that contains positive people, attend breakfast presentations and conferences to ensure you stay informed and positive.

9. Smile and walk tall like a Champion.
Our physiology dictates our mood and if we slump, walk slowly and look at our feet all the time we’ll find it difficult to feel powerful and motivated. Next time you are taking a walk try this: Imagine that you’ve just won the lottery and you are on your way to pick up the ticket before the deadline expires. Smile and the rest of the world will wonder what you’ve been up to!

10. Take regular exercise. Everyone feels better after they’ve exercised. Go for a swim at the early morning session, park your car away from the office and walk the last few kilometres, don’t take the lift use the stairs and then go to the gym on the way home from work. Exercise is good for you and it’ll make you feel great.

Nick Vujicic - Life Without Limbs
Friday, March 20th, 2009

Here is a truly amazing story of 25 year old Nick Vujicic who was born without limbs.

Nick learnt to deal with his disability, and it was only when he began to embrace his situation that he started to achieve greater things in his life.

Individuals like Nick Vujicic can teach us to appreciate what we have, and encourage us to never give up, that we can overcome the challenges in our lives.

“People say to me, ‘How can you smile?’” he says. “Then they realize ‘there’s got to be something more to life than meets the eye if a guy without arms and legs is living a fuller life than I am.’

Watch this space…..as I have the opportunity to meet Nick in May. I will be working out a way to interview him for the Think Like A Champion Club members.

How to stop sabotaging your success
Friday, February 13th, 2009

Do you sabotage your ability to achieve your goals? What stops you, what can help you achieve them faster?

Here are 10 practical strategies to get you winning, today.

DON’T:

1. Don’t let someone force a goal on you that you don’t really want - follow your heart.
2. Don’t let the past stop you - past goals you failed to reach have nothing to do with NOW.
3. Don’t think some of your goals are not important enough, not big enough - all your goals matter.
4. Don’t be rigid. Yes, set a path, a goal, and go for it, but tunnel-vision can make you miss vital information and feedback.
5. Don’t try to do everything yourself. Be willing to delegate.

DO:

1. Have a clean conscience. When you feel guilty, you don’t feel that you deserve to get the goals you’re going for.
2. Come from a place of service and helping others get what they want. Serve first and the Universe serves you.
3. Celebrate your wins. Reaching a goal is cause for celebration - and it leads to MORE wins!
4. Support those people who support you - flow power and support to them. It creates a win/win loop of power, and everyone wins.
5. Every day make a list of what you are grateful for - express your gratitude for everything and everyone you can think of!

Remember…if you don’t quit, you will make it!


Go for your Gold!
