The One Ingredient For Ultimate Victory. [MUST READ]

Above all else, there is one quality that will lead you to victory in your chosen pursuits. 

However you choose to look at life there is one key makeup in those who create astonishing results, achieve great feats or climb to the heights thought unimaginable.

Sheer willpower, although an important attribute, isn't it.

It's not even goals, ambition, drive, talent, luck, attitude, intelligence, passion, gratitude, or the myriad of other terms you may choose to describe a person to hit high achievements.

If you deconstruct the outer components of such an individual like the money, notoriety and perhaps the ease at which this person may seem to waltz through life's problems you'll find a deeper, core-level power.

This power is one you possess.

It has the ability to get you through any single problem you face.

It has the capacity to pull yourself through the hard times when the entire world, including those closest to you, are against you.

Without it burn your goals, goal cards, affirmations, declarations, statements to yourself, vision boards,  and forget about visioneering, masterminding, coaching, seminars, books will have no effect on your life except for the tasty morsels of mind cheese.

Or perhaps if you attend enough of these you will suddenly unlock the power?

The power is always waiting there for you to unleash.

But just as you cannot hold onto a single breath indefinitely this power must be nursed, coaxed, strengthened and become a fixed part of who you are.

Every single person who is successful has this one trait in common above anything:

Fortitude.

Which is "courage in pain or adversity."

The ancient Greeks argued about this word of courage for centuries.

Here is how I like to think of it:

Courage is not the absence of fear nor is it a false confidence - that is bravado.

You know, the cocky guy with the spear saying he is not afraid as he is about to launch into face to face, life or death combat with 15,000 enemies. 

No, courage is to feel that fear and do it regardless.

Fortitude implies you've decided upon what you want and know what you are going after.

It also implies you are in it for the long-distance game.

Willing to be hard at it on the daily for a minimum of years to decades or become a lifer. 

Fortitude is what enables a child to go from failing to A student, a homeless person to CEO, a blind man to dance on the world stage, a single mother to create a successful home business, or for you to go from where you are to where you want to go.

You can also call this term perseverance, persistence, stick-to-it-ivness, resilience, consistency [although this is a basic thinking in which we may discuss the follies of this line of reasoning], grit, guts, moxie, tenacity.

The difficulty? [The secret the experts do not want you to know]

We don't really understand how to teach it. 

It is something I am in the process of figuring out for you.

But one thing for sure is you cannot find a single person in the entire history of human species that did not have this on a conscious or unconscious level driving their art, craft, business, thinking, experiments, and life.

Our current level of neuroscience, biology studies, psychological pursuits, and et al. are currently here learning, studying and testing each day to figure out how do we make this something we can give.

Until then, it is something worthy of your time to find out how to incorporate this power.

We admire and want to be like those who show vulnerability and triumph with an ultimate victory but come out battle scared.

Because we are that hero in every story.
