Mental successis the road to being the best!

When we experience the results we desire, we feel happy and good about ourselves. However, the tendency becomes that we fail to replicate that success when we set our next goal. The reason for this is due to inconsistency in that the same power and drive to achieve the first goal is not present in the second goal. This signifies a lack of mastery.

Therefore, in order to achieve the best every time, we need to put the same amount of resources into the goal, in terms of intention and the correct way of "doing and acting". This will make winning not a one time event, but an all time event and occurrence. Below you will find some guidelines that will help you to become a champion in whatever you do, to thus stand above everyone as a genius:

1. The reason why we fail to replicate our mental success, is because we are not sure of the factors that have created that success in the first place.

Therefore, we must educate ourselves as to what creates mental success. When we are not sure, we live in uncertainty and can never have maximum faith. When we are sure, we simply need to follow the correct sequence and success is therefore guaranteed.

2. You must learn from all of your successes and all of your failures.

When you look back at what you did right or wrong in a situation, you will know what works and what doesn't. From here, you can begin to replace your old habits with habits which are in tune with the successful way of doing things. So you need to learn to cut down the elements of an event and see what was right and what was wrong in it, and learn from those elements.

3. You need to set the intention that you will realise that the best is already within you.

The best that you can be is the best. In relation to other people, this will be the best in the world. And this realisation will become apparent to you, when you have acquired the knowledge of why you are the best with exact magnitude. You can achieve anything you want, but you first must be open minded to that possibility. Simply being open-minded to this thinking will put your life in a completely different trajectory which will allow your dreams to come true.

4. A genius intends to win in every situation.

You must therefore intend to be a winner that wins everytime. As you intend, so shall it become. So keep that intention up. Eventually, you will know every factor that creates or holds back success and be able to use them with elegance and ease. This will allow you to create a win simply on your intention, and it is indicative of true mental mastery

5. You will become what you intend.

What you intend, is what you have planted on firm soil through the power of intention. (see Using The Power of Intention)

6. You need to believe that you already have it.

Having is receiving. Achieving mastery is not about chasing after the goal and trying to reach it, as this will lead to failure. It is not you who is in charge of your life. It is the unconscious mind which sets the foundation for your life. You need to allow It to come through and give you what you want, and this is through believing that you already have it.

7. When you believe that you are the best that you can be, you think and create the best.

We simply need to access it by connecting with its nature. The unconscious mind holds the key to all mental powers you need and is the best, and therefore you must believe that you are the best as well, because you have an unconscious mind within you too. This will allow us to connect with the unconscious mind and use its power. The result will be that you will be able to think and create the best.

What To Expect

When you are on the road to mastery, you will have a greater impression and realisation of what these secrets truly mean. Until them, simply acting and doing things in the way above will pave the road to allow you to properly understand it. Only then can you begin to truly refine your mindset towards mastery. Apply these steps now and reap the rewards in your life.

If your goal is to become the greatest Bass Angler in the World, it is only attainable threw these tried and true steps of unleashing your subconscious mind and doing so we must understand in the realm world of the linguistics that is rapidly accelerating in Pro sports of any kind and especially Bass Angling we must not rely on one scenario of Bass angling but have a solid foundation and the skills to fall back on if such one scenario fails and without a solid foundation of these skills one is dead in the water!... So think of these step day in and day out and with the burning desire to win and become one of the best there ever was within your Sport of Bass Angling! I know i am!....So Tight Lines, Bent Rods, and Ripping Drags and See You on the water!

P.S. You won't ever catch me when i have my game on, Dock Talking...It only shows lack of confidence and abilities of
my coveted goal, of becoming one of the best there ever was!

Follow up to "Was the Classic Unsafe" and Dave Wolak's Take

I had a post yesterday called “Was the Classic unsafe?”  I talked about the anglers using the new Lowrance Radar, and perhaps relying on it far too much.  My friend Tyler weighed in on the subject as well with his post “A Foggy Situation”. 

I had the chance today to talk with an angler who was in the Classic and made those long runs to Venice on day one and two.  Dave Wolak was one of the anglers without the radar.  He runs Humminbird electronics and did not have the option, like those running Lowrance products. 

Dave told me he trusted his eye over the radar, even if he had the radar he would not have blown thru the fog.  When he got to fog he either idled thru it or went at plowing speed (10 to 12 mph).  When he came to a clearing he would take off until he reached a spot covered in fog again.

Dave told me: “long runs are always a calculated risk. That being said, I knew I may encounter fog and have to go slow. It’s the subjectivity of the call in the morning. If I am released and encounter fog that is unsafe to travel in anyway, then what is the difference....the difference is that I could have idles half way to Venice in that time. Also, that the area the winner was in would not have been beaten by Venice in that particular window of time no matter what time I or other competitors had down in Venice.... and how the stars alligned for the winning location and strategy was just unbeatable.....it’s just a different caliber and strain of fish there and when they are biting it's hard to beat from the river northern strain of Venice fish. But, total 8 hours of time in a tournament with the magnitude of the Classic I feel is essential. You have people qualifying from all over the world with complex strategies and all the competitors want is fairness across the board and objective rules that are not subject to "a call".

The biggest problem Dave pointed out with the fog delay was loss of time on the water.  On day two he had 40 minutes to fish and got five fish in that time.  Dave said as soon as number five hit the live well he was headed back.  He told me about day two more in-depth.  When he hit Venice the fog was so thick he didn’t think he could make it back for the weigh-in.  He told his marshal that if the fog did not lift he was going to make a call for his truck and pick him up there in Venice and call it a day.  He and the marshal with him could just fish for fun until his ride got there.  Soon things changed and fog began to lift, he got five keepers and though he could make it back.  The rest is history, he made it back didn’t make the cut and never got to fish day three.

Dave had some suggestions about what could have been done.  Everyone knew that fog is inevitable in the delta this time of year.  B.A.S.S. could have made take off time at 9:00 am when most of the fog burns off, moved the weigh-in time back which would have leveled the playing field for those making the long run. 

The time issue was a big deal this year.  I think Dave makes a great point.  What would have happened if the take off time had been moved back?   I want to leave you with this.  Radar is not the answer for  anglers to run fast down any body of water in fog.  Dave told me even if he had ten radars on his boat he would not have done that.  He would have used common sense and ran at a safe speed through the fog.  All anglers need to use are heads.

Anthony Smith lost his boat over the weekend on a body of water he knows very well when a log floating down stream struck his boat.  Radar would not have picked that up.  If fog had been added to the equation thing may have been worse.  Anthony may have lost his life not just a boat.

No matter how good the technology gets we need to make sure we use common sense and not always rely on the machines……I would hate to have to fight terminators someday!
