Pressure Performance

At a critical moment when everyone gets too pumped up and overheated, the Champion is the guy telling everyone to keep it cool.

To be a Champion you have to be in control of your emotions; so that you can help others to be in control of theirs. The greatest have found a way to stay cool under pressure and use that pressure to their advantage. At the moment when tension is high and others lose control; you being unstoppable, remains steady and focused on the job at hand. When others are losing it; a Champion is winning it. Bottom line, being relentless is being the one who can still operate at the highest level at all times. Pressure can bust pipes but it also produces diamonds. It’s how you manage the pressure and stress. Being the best is an every day process. It’s not being good one day and better one day; then the best one day. You have to bring your A game every day at whatever it is you do. I know giving your absolute best effort every day will not always be the same amount of effort. But just give it your best day in and day out. Are you able to produce under pressure?
