Trevor Moawad wrote a terrific book called, \u201cGetting to Neutral\u201d. Trevor was battling cancer in his middle 40\u2019s when he wrote this book with his best friend and NFL All-Pro, Russell Wilson.<\/p>\n
The premise of his book is that we can\u2019t really live if we don\u2019t live in the now. Golfer Greg Norman calls it, \u201cDo it now, Do it proper\u201d. Repetitive activities done well become habits which continues the flywheel effect and the momentum continues. This is quite different from \u201cpositive thinking\u201d. It\u2019s the absence of \u201cnegative thinking\u201d. There is a difference. Trevor\u2019s training centered on focusing on the task at hand as being neither \u201cpositive\u201d or \u201cnegative\u201d. The present situation is what it is.\u00a0 We have to make decisions and choices in the present moment. Will our thoughts and actions move us toward our objectives or away from them?<\/p>\n

Doing what you need to do in the present has been misinterpreted as modern stoicism. Trevor would disagree. He passed away at 48 after impacting thousands of people with his mental training and conditioning for elite organizations like the Universities of Florida, Georgia and Alabama. My challenge to you is to live every moment in the present. The past is the past.\u00a0 Learn from it and move on. The future is not determined. Don\u2019t dwell on a future that is so far out as to become more dreams and fantasy than obtainable. A long distance runner can dream of marathons but unless he trains in the present, he will never be able to compete competitively for a full 26 miles. Every worthwhile goal in life is made up of many incremental steps that must be done to reach a successful completion.<\/p>\n
Trevor taught elite athletes how to hyper focus on executing at the highest levels by performing well incrementally.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
Living in the present moment is the only way to achieve your goals and objectives.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
Every moment should be seen as an opportunity to move incrementally toward fulfilling your purpose.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
