Performance aggressive…

Another reminder…

There is no easy way to become a master at sending and receiving truth. You will make lots of mistakes along this route and offer up lots of repair. You will, however, get stronger and make those around you stronger too. At least those with the seed of high performance in them.

High performers, remember, are performance aggressive; never passive. The world is full of faux performers that have succombed to fear and decided instead of playing with truth they will play it safe. These performers mask their thinking and feeling and take just a fraction too long to decide to open their mouth or get their shoulders in front of their defender. Instead of speaking truth or finding themselves in space, they say nothing or find themselves without the ball. I see this everyday. I want to see less…

Your job, if your aim is high performance, is to learn how to face your fears and in your moments of truth remain aggressive. Not aggressive in a bullying kinda way, but aggressive in a performance kinda way. Aggressive because you are here to perform at the highest level and attack your work with your whole heart and complete effort. High performers are performance aggressive. The world is full and getting fuller of passive aggressive people.

We need Y.O.U. to beocme one of the few that has a dream worth pursuing. A dream worth your best. A dream that will energize you to bring aggression toward your performance.

Today, the Jayhawks will only defeat the Baylor Bears if they are the aggressor. They will be in the Phog but could easily fall to the pressure and find themselves in a fog. Today, we will see how they perform in one of their moments of truth. And, everyday, at your place of work, people are watching you and seeing how Y.O.U. are performing when you’re away from home. I hope they see you going for it and getting your shoulders in front of whatever defender you happen to face.

Performance aggressive is the one you want…
