Auto Racing Fitness Magazine Leaves the Talking to the Talkers and Talks Action

In handling the personal fitness training for Racing elite competitors, I am always on the lookout for ideas or mindsets that constitute uniform threads that seperate the high achievers from folks who struggle to get results.  Recently I published a series of articles talking about Brian Tracy's laws for success in the 21st century and how each applied to training for car and motorcycle racers. Brian Tracy to me is as authoritative a success coach as exists in the world.

The question I wanted to answer for myself and to use in my Racers Workout DVD program was: what is a global success mindset, or global personality trait that will determine whether someone gets max results in any endeavor?  One thing that stands out is there is a huge difference between doing it and talking about it.  Like I say to my racers: "Nothin means nothin unless you win some races."

In our present times, it is very easy to spin a plausible story about yourself and have it take hold as fact.   Reality is that there is no milestone just spin. No real friction or overcoming of obstacles that grow the person to greatness.    I am best with English, but there is a Latin phrase that I think captures it best.  Esse Quam Videri means merely: to be rather than appear.  To really be, a great racer for instance, a person must really be willing to do the little things that make a success a success.

Appearing only, without the substance of physical and mental effort behind it, will eventually expose any person and their efforts as phoney. A phoney will never be a success at anything. Except for being a phoney.  The emptiest of all achievements.
