           Creating “Mental Strength”

"The good and very good performers always seem to thrive on mental toughness training. These people are open-minded, successful, and aware that there is always a higher level of performance to be attained, no matter how good they already are. These people often climb from middle-class to world-class results very quickly, and it all begins with their thinking."

Are You Ready to Experience Mental Strength Coaching and Training?

Warrior Mind Coaching is designed to help you strengthen your mind and utilize your inner strength to achieve what you want most in life.

Definition of Mental Strength

To explain fully how Warrior Mind Coaching works, we need to clearly define exactly what we mean by “mental strength”. We all have our own definition of strength, and to move forward it’s necessary to establish a common usage that we work with in our coaching process.

One dictionary defines 'strength' as 'the capability to exert power,' and goes on to define 'power' as 'the ability to cause things to happen'.

We can now define strength as 'the capability to cause things to happen'. But as I’ll explain, even this definition is not 100% complete.

Causing Things to Happen Despite Mental Resistance

When talking about physical strength, this capability to cause things to happen will manifest itself in physical ways: a weightlifter lifting a large weight, a sprinter setting a new record time, a boxer landing a knockout punch, etc. In these physical examples, the athletes all have the capability to cause things to happen. We’d then say that these athletes are physically strong.

Warrior Mind Coaching and Training

Warrior Mind Coaching is not focused on physical strength but on mental strength. (Physical strength IS addressed in Warrior Fitness Coaching).

There is an important similarity however.

In building physical strength, some kind of resistance must be overcome: weights lifted, hills climbed, opponents overcome. Every top athlete must seek out and overcome resistance before achieving their goals. That’s what we call training, and mental training is much the same.

Why Resistance is Vital

For strength to manifest itself there must always be resistance and it must be overcome.

For Warrior Mind Coaching, the dictionary definition is incomplete because it makes no mention of resistance. All athletes use their physical strength to overcome a physical resistance. A reasonable definition of physical strength would therefore be 'the ability to overcome physical resistance and cause things to happen'.

Our approach to coaching is that the human body and mind are inseparably linked. Many of the principles that apply to physical development also hold true for mental development. Therefore Warrior Mind Training defines mental strength this way:

Mental strength is “the ability to overcome and control mental resistance thoughts and emotions and consciously cause things to happen.” 

What’s Your Starting Point?

If you know exactly what you want but don’t know how to get there, Mental Strength Coaching will definitely help. Together we will identify where to focus your efforts so that you tackle challenges that reward you AND make you stronger.

But if you’re simply bored and asking where the excitement in your life is, I say you’re not facing the kind of resistance that will make you strong mentally. You’re likely in the discovery phase where you’re still trying to pinpoint your dream. So that’s where we will start, helping you to gain clarity on what direction you really want to pursue. Then you can begin to select which “opponents” to tackle first, and we’re on our way!

Without a challenge, the warrior is dead. Not physically dead, but mentally dead. That’s what was happening to me. I was dying inside because I wasn’t chasing my dream, heck I think I was still figuring out what my dream was. I was just going through the motions of everyday living, and deep down, I knew it wasn’t enough. 

Then I turned it all around using mental strength techniques and methods. Of course, it took me a lot longer than I recommend for anyone else, but I gained a lot of knowledge along the way, and that’s what my Mental Strength Coaching and Training are all about.

Begin with the Warrior Mental Strength Primer

Because I’m so passionate about people taking complete and total control over their lives I am offering, for limited time, the Mental Strength Primer at no cost.

Is This the Right Time for You to Use Coaching?

Having an inner strength coach in your life can speed up the process of obtaining what you want and make the journey of getting it much smoother. Having an inner strength coach will support you in becoming clear on what you really want.

To discover how a coach might help you, complete the Discovery Form below. This will give you a strong base from which to explore if coaching will be useful at this stage of your life.

After you have filled out the form, by requesting your Introductory Consultation with me, we'll discuss what you discovered by completing this form. Even if you are not ready to hire a coach, this will give you an opportunity to explore the possibilities that are available to you right now.

Note: You may find some of these questions ask the same thing, but in a different way. That’s intentional, to activate different areas of your brain and encourage the most meaningful responses.

After you have requested your Introductory Consultation, you will receive a form to e-mail back to me.  In the mean time the below questions will assist you in making the decision to move forward with a Introductory Consultation.

SCORING YOURSELF

If you scored:

8-10 points: you’re ready to make the investment and hire a coach. You commitment level is high and you will achieve much from working with a coach.

5-7 points: You are almost there. During your initial conversation with a coach you can begin discussing areas that are getting in your way and ask the coach to support you in removing those blocks so you can move forward and begin to create the change you want in your life.

0-4 points: Most likely you are not ready to hire a coach. During your initial conversation ask the coach for suggestions on what you could do to prepare yourself to begin the process of change.
