Reaching Your Potential

Former San Francisco 49ers Head Coach Bill Walsh is considered one of the NFL's greatest coaches.  In his book The Score Takes Care of Itself: My Philosophy of Leadership Walsh outlined 12 reminders he used to keep himself focused during a losing streak.

Below are selected reminders that translate into most pursuits.

• Concentrate on what will produce results rather than on the results, the process rather than the prize.
• Don't Isolate yourself
• Don't let the magnitude of the challenge take you away from the incremental steps necessary to effect change.
• Exude an upbeat and determined attitude.
