The Million Dollar Skill

I just returned from a speaking engagement in Mexico with The Secrets Bob Proctor; Chicken Soup for the Soul’s Mark Victor Hansen; and White House Presidential advisor Doug Wead. Along with sharing some of the Mental Toughness Training Secrets, I challenged the audience to learn and use the million dollar skill most entrepreneurs and business people avoid. I even asked Mark Victor Hansen, who was sitting in the front row during my speech, if he could imagine building his Chicken Soup empire without this skill? Of course Mark nodded no. Nearly every multi-millioniare businessperson I’ve ever interviewed speaks with awe and

The Mentally Tortured Dog Sled Champion

I recently interviewed one of the top sled dog racing champions in the world on a glacier near Skagway, Alaska. Like a lot of people who are champions in their field but struggling financially, this guy is much closer to massive success then he realizes. He’s been listening to middle-class thinkers for years telling him to grow up and get a real job, and it’s been torturing him. My advice was different. Listen to this post and see if you agree with what I told him. I’d love to hear YOUR opinion on this key aspect of world-class success and happiness. (4:21 )

The Secret: Fact or Fantasy?

I’ve been bombarded by Fortune 500 sales audiences all year long about the best selling book and movie, The Secret. Everyone, including celebrities, seems to have strong opinions on it. Oprah loved it, Bill Maher laughed at it. Ellen Degeneres and Larry King raved about it, Saturday Night LIVE did a parody on it. Deepak Chopra trashed it on national television while other authors promoted it. What is it about the ancient law of attraction that causes so much controversey? I’m headed to Mexico later this week to speak on a cruise ship with two stars of the movie, Bob Proctor and Michael Beckwith, so I

Delusional Thinking on Homosexuals and The Holocaust

Delusional thinking is the enemy of world-class results. The President of Iran, Mahoud Ahmadinejad, has become the new poster boy for this destructive phenomenon. If you saw his speech at Columbia University yesterday, you know what I’m talking about. If you didn’t, prepare to be shocked. What can we learn about delusional thinking from this sociopath? I can’t wait to read your comments on this one! (4:11)

Coaching Frustrated Performers

I’ve used this mental toughness coaching technique since the 1980’s, and it helped me become one of the highest paid coaches in the Fortune 500. In this post I address the reason most coaches fail to empower their charges, as well as how to fix the problem in less than 2 minutes. Every life coach, sports coach and business coach should steal this technique immediately. My other recomendation in this post is a world-class resource called The Success Training Network. My show is called Mental Toughness with Steve Siebold, which just won the 2007 Telly Award for Most Outstanding Motivational Talk Show.

What’s Your White Moment?

Every world-class performer I’ve interviewed in the past 23 years was able to indentify his or her white moment. Some of them traced their entire fortune back to using their white moment to drive them when all else failed. Many of them told me their white moment rescued them during the darkest days of their lives. I was exposed to this concept in 1987, and it kept me laser focused for years. I challenge you to listen to this post and share YOUR white moment in the comments section.  (3:58)

The Making of a Million-Dollar Mind

World-class success begins with world-class beliefs, which are developed through immersion in world-class thinking.  The systematic process described in this post changed my life and the lives of many Mental Toughness University, Mental Toughness College and Mental Toughness Institute for Weight Control Students.
