    John Di Lemme

    When you think of combat, you think of a war a battle. Right now theres a battle insideyou...are you going to commit or are you going to quit? Too many people these days will notcommit, they will quit. There are 85,000 negative thoughts a day fed into our minds. You can bedepressed just from billboards, bumper stickers, the radio, and thats without your fancy phonestexting you, and thats without all your negative friends sending you negative emails.

    See, your beliefs build your foundation. Your foundations build your structure. Did you knowthe number one university you must graduate from is the University of Adversity? Everyuniversity you graduate from, you have to take tests. Because when you take tests you cangraduate. Well, the University of Adversity, you have to take numerous tests. And thats where

    you get a testimonial, the root of the word testimonial, is test. We are bombarded every day withthe fear flu. The most deadliest flu out there is the fear flu. Every word people say.

    Secret #1: Extreme Commitment

    This is from Page 43 of Champions are Born, Losers are Made book. Chapter six is about the word, extreme. Leaders must be extreme as in extremely committed, extremely focused, andextremely passionate. Leadership requires that kind of extreme commitment, focus andpassion.

    The question I have to ask you is, are you extreme? People will start laughing at you, when theystart seeing you go to another level in life. See, extreme athletes. You wont see an Olympicathlete. A great friend of mine is Nikki Stone. She won a 1980 USA gold medal in skiing.Olympic athletes are extremely committed. You wont see Olympic athletes hanging out at I-

    Hop having some glasses of soda and some waffles going, I got the Olympics tomorrowmorning, but I think Ill show up. Oh, Im supposed to race.

    See, right now, while everybody else is confused, and blaming everyone else, turn off thetelevision and turn on your IV. IV stands for internal vision. As soon as you go into thehospital, the first thing they give you is an IV. They have to give you liquid nutrients in your

    body.

    The number one nutrition you need right now with the fear flu, is commitment. People need tosee you looking different, acting different. Who do you want in your race in life? Someone

    whos causally committed? Or someone whos extremely committed?

    See, it doesnt make a difference what somebody does when things are going great. Its whatthey do when its challenging times. Challenging times build character.

    Secret # 2: Strategic Scheduling

    Scheduling is so difficult, because with so much technology, everybody runs late. Technologydoes not create focus. You have to be strategically scheduled. Control your day. When you let

    2/5

    the day control you, youve lost the strategic advantage. People ask, Well, John, what happens when something comes up? It doesnt come up. I dont pick up the phone. Your dailydecisions predict your destination. What you do today predicts your destination. No one just

    becomes an Olympic athlete. No one just becomes a motivational speaker. Schedule every day. When you lose control, youre like a football quarterback who has a headset communicationfailure. Your results represent your schedule.

    Wherever your weakness is, you have to start focusing on it. You need to be strategicallyscheduled. Do you have seventy-four cell phones and forty-two emails, but you show up late? Ididnt get your email, I didnt get your message. Well, if you had one phone and one email,

    you would. Always be early. How many times have you showed up to market your product orservice and you were on time and/or a few minutes early, and ready to present your business,did you closure ration go up?

    For those of you who showed up late, did your closure ratio go down? When you are late, theperson that has been waiting on you has already likely made up his mind about what you areabout to offer him or her and the answer is simply, No, thanks. After all, if you cant be ontime for an appointment that was scheduled last week, then how on earth will this person go to

    depend on you, if they invest in your product? If you are late, then you might as well justreschedule or call off the appointment altogether. Change is not the word challenge, its change.If you dont challenge yourself you wont change.

    Success is very simple. Failure is just the series of massive confusion. A basic fundamental ofbusiness and a basic fundamental of bombarding the fear flu is guess what? Get to your salesand marketing events, show up on time, show up enthusiastic, show up rested, show up focused,

    be there early, and show that presentation, your product, your service, and close.

    Secret #3: Miracle Expectation

    We are in the miracle expectation phase. Do you know what a miracle is? Its just a result. A

    miracle is a result. Miracle expectation is the key. When you expect a result, and now you reallywant to expect a miracle.

    There is an atmosphere when a storms coming. Its very powerful. An atmosphere and wordsare the most powerful invisible forces you own. You own your words. See, a miracle lies in yourmouth. Because the words you say predicts that miracle. Fear and faith are exactly the same.They are expectancy attitudes.

    With words you can command the miracle with your faithful words, every day. Every day whenyou wake up you say, Today is the greatest day of my life. I am expecting a miracle. I walk byfaith and I expect a super natural miracle today.

    When somebody says something negative to you, Im going to add you to my delete list. Theyare going to shove the dream out of your life, because if they really love you, they will encourage

    you.

    It doesnt take courage to discourage someone. You have the courage to encourage someone.Today is a gift. Its called a present. Its not called the past, you wake up and say todays thepast. People are living in the past. If your past is clearer to you than your future, your dream isin trouble.

    Secret #4: DBB

    DBB. The first D stands for daily. Every day. D-A-I-L-Y. Daily and every day have somethingin common. The last letter ends in Y.

    Until you believe enough in yourself, nothings going to change. DBB stands for Daily Belief

    Building. Build your belief every day. Its an action verb. Every day you must be building yourbelief. Because the days you dont feel like doing self development, those are the days you needto do it. Your dream needs it to get to the next level. You dont need to listen to anybody about

    your dream, but your dream.

    Outward representation doesnt represent inward belief. A lot of people make decisions ontheir future about what people think of them. Many of you get stuck in your belief buildingprocess. Your why has to expand. The only way your why expands is you have to take personalresponsibility for building your belief. So you have to take responsibility. Ask yourself, am I

    building my belief each day? Or my beliefs not being built? The day you stop learning is theday your dream dies.

    Strong foundations are not made of sand. A foundation must be strong enough to holdeverything stable and steady during a storm or earthquake. Thats why foundations are made ofcement. Your commitment to achieve your dreams is your lifes cement.

    If you read the right books, gentle your thoughts, spend time with positive and successfulpeople, and leave your past mistakes behind you, you will find that your foundation of cement

    will harden just like cement and it becomes stronger each day. You have to realize why thatcement is settling. See, the first two years, its a two to five-year process. Success is two to five

    years.

    Is my lifes foundation being built each day? Because youre going to have that storm. Youregoing to have the day all by yourself and someone looks in your eyes and says, Im sick of

    hearing you dream. And thats when you have to stand on that foundation that youre buildingeach day.

    Secret #5: The Gift of Goodbye

    Champions are Born, Losers are Made. Loser habits are made. Its not hateful to tell someonegoodbye rather, its faithful. Faith stands for find answers in the heart. The answer to yourdream lies right here. Its not a person thing, you shouldnt be cruel or dismissive of others, but

    you have to respond.

    Ever call 911 in an emergency? And youre always worried about whats the response time?Whats the response time to your dream of your why, when it calls out? Youre in emergencymode. Youre listening to the wrong people. Theyre stealing your dream.

    A dream is the strongest tangible property you own, except you dont receive it that way. See,tangible property is a computer. Its a car. Its something physical. Your dream is physicalproperty. But when people steal it with their words, you have to tell them, goodbye, Ill miss

    you, but Ill be back.

    Leaving them is also an act of love. The best thing you can do for them is leave them, love them,and then, as you start to grow, theyre going to see you change.

    Do you ever notice that when flight attendants prepare the passengers for the flight, that theytalk about the oxygen mask? Motivation and oxygen are exactly the same. Theyre bothinvisible, and you cant live more than three minutes without it. People cant live more thanthree minutes without motivation.

    In the event of cabin depressurization, oxygen masks will drop down. Please secure your ownmask before helping others.
