Crave the Intensity
When you only have 90 days, you don’t have time to play defense. You have to be playing aggressive offense to even have a chance of winning. You have to look forward constantly. The second you start engaging in the trivial many, which is where the critics, media and political hacks like to live, you lose.
It is a grind. It isn’t sexy. And it’s not something you’d wish on your worst enemy. The 90-Day Race is absolutely grueling, but it’s only 90 days!
It’s exhausting, demanding and cumbersome in every possible way—physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
Running for the Senate was a grind to say the least. And it will be a grind for you. Whether you’re in a 90-day program to lose weight and get fit, a 90-Day Race to grow or jump start your business or a 90-day pre-season training getting ready for your professional sport, it’s a grind. It’s ugly. Some days you’re the windshield; other days you’re the bug. It’s just the way it goes. But I never said it would be easy; I said it would be worth it!
The 90-Day Race is about overcoming and defying the odds. It is about David taking on Goliath.
But Goliath has friends. Some of his friends live in your mind and tell you that you’re inadequate. They put doubt in your mind that you’re not cut out for greatness. They suggest that you won’t make it, that you can’t have the body you dream of, that you can’t make the money or have the success you are fighting for.
The 90-Day Race is really about you beating your internal or external Goliath.
You can win if you refuse to quit during the 90-Day Race. Adversity causes some to break and others to break records. You just can’t stop a man that won’t quit.
The adversity gave me clarity. It fueled me. It inspired me. But I never got my “why” questions answered (i.e., Why is this happening to me? Why are they saying this about me?). They didn’t need to be. And neither do yours.
Your emotions will be all over the board during your 90-Day Race. You won’t be super positive every single moment of every single day like you may be when you start. You won’t always have a song in your heart, a smile on your face and a spring in your step. You will get mad at times. You will get frustrated with your lack of results at some point. You will go from excited to discouraged in a nanosecond. You will likely have high highs and low lows and not even realize it because you are truly in your 90-Day Race.
You’ll have the chance to quit-more than once. You may have someone, like I did, offer to pay you to quit! Your initial supporters, business partners, customers or clients may tell you to quit because they didn’t realize what a 90-Day Race looks like and don’t have what it takes to see it through.
But they don’t realize that champions are made when the stands are empty.
