We kick off our 2021 The Way Forward Webcasts, with our good friend Dr. Jason Selk, CEO of Enhanced Performance and the former Director of Mental Training for the St. Louis Cardinals baseball team. He helps business leaders, executives, and top sales people develop mental toughness, increase confidence and focus, and substantially grow their bottom line. Some of you may recall that Dr. Selk was our top speaker at the PEO Leadership Conference in 2013 - he was outstanding! He is recognized as one of North America's top performance coaches to both athletes and business executives. He helped the Cardinals win their first World Series in over 20 years in 2006, in 2011 he assisted the Cardinals in the historic feat of winning their second championship in 6 years and in 2013 he helped them once again make their way to the World Championships against the Boston Red Sox. Dr. Selk is a regular contributor to Forbes, ABC, CBS, ESPN, USA Today and NBC radio and television. His latest book Relentless Solution Focus will be published in January 2021.
Here is what you should expect to take-away from our hour conversation and Q&A:
- THE #1 obstacle to mental toughness is our biological tendency to focus on the PROBLEM before the SOLUTION. As humans we tend to have a problem-centric focus (PCF)
- The opposite of a problem-centric focus is a Relentless Solution Focus replacing all negative thoughts about a problem with a solution based focused thinking.
- Relentless Solution Focus is confirmed and accomplished often with one simple question: "What is the one thing I can do differently right now that could make things better?"
You should expect to walk away with some of the starting blocks of increasing your mental toughness allowing you to accelerate more effectively towards your professional and personal goals and objectives.
