Critical Thinking

As a lifetime seeker of all-things success, I’ve lived most of my life worshipping at the alter of the world’s greatest performers. I’ve written 12 books that focus on the subject of success or heavily allude to it. Now, after 30 years of chasing my dreams, combined with a 5-week, nearly fatal batttle with Covid-19, I’m reevaluating my philosophy. The word that strikes me hardest is empathy, and if I have exhibited it enough over the course of my life. I used to think so. Now I’m not so sure. Empathy is a life-changing behavior.

The most popular question I get from senior executives of Fortune 500 companies is how did we increase sales by $1.3 billion, and execute 23 years of successful turnarounds with sales teams. The answer is a training system we created called “The Mental Toughness Process”. Many executives refer to it as “sports psychology on steriods.” Our competitors have tried to figure it out for years, and today, I’m revealing it on this video. If you have a sales team of any kind, you’ll want to see this.. #mentaltoughness #personaldevelopment #publicspeaking #criticalthinking

This is the question the brain asks itself when experiencing emotional, psychological or physical pain. And if the answer isn’t crystal clear, the brain will attempt to shut down whatever is causing the stress. Psychologists tend to agree that high performance demands mental clarity and mental toughness, and there’s a strategy used by many of the greatest performers in the world. In this video, I describe this process. If you’re chasing a big goal littered with obstacles, please watch this entire video. It’s been a game changer for many. #mentaltoughness ##personaldevelopment

Several years ago YouTube master Evan Carmichael created a montage of a few of my speeches, TV interviews and Award-winning TV show on The Success Training Network and called it “Siebold’s 10 Rules of Success” I ran across it again recently and thought I would share it with you. Back in the day, I had more hair and less pounds, but the message has always been the same. #mentaltoughness #personaldevelopment #evancarmichael

Positive Thinking can be a wonderful thing, but it can also be dangerous. The world is both a beautiful and brutal place, and you can say they same thing about life. It’s a dichotomy with which we all must cope. For the past 25 years I’ve been traveling across the country and around the world teaching Mental Toughness and Critical Thinking to Fortune 500 sales teams, and this is one of the least popular, yet most pragmatic lessons. This video tells the story of a recent speech I delivered in Lisbon, Portugal, at Ingersol-Rands European National Convention. #criticalthinking #positivethinking #personaldevelopment #mentaltoughness

Learning to forgive yourself is one of the most difficult mental toughness lessons. We tend to forgive others for their past mistakes and transgressions, yet when it comes to forgiving ourselves, many of us refuse to let go. The problem with storing anger is the space it takes up and the mental energy it consumes. The fastest path to personal development and mental toughness is learning to let go. We’re only human, and we are capable of making both brilliant and stupid decisions. Watch this short video and I’ll look forward to your comments. #mentaltoughness #critcalthinking #personaldevelopment
