Dear friend,

There is ONE single skill that distinguishes the successful in any field. It separates the doers from the procrastinators, the achievers from the quitters, the champions from the underachievers.

Sure, everyone SAYS they want to be a champion, a millionaire, a better spouse, a better parent, a success in their profession... But only those who have this will go from SAYING to actually DOING and BEING these things.

If you have average talent, this skill can make you very good. If you have good talent, it can make you great. If you have great talent, it can make you elite. If you have enough of it, it can take even your good talent to the elite level. However, if you don't have this, even if you have all of the God given talent in the world, you will end up just being another underachiever who never lived up to his potential.

Few people have it. Those who do have it can make up for shortcomings in many other areas. However, excelling in other areas will never make up for the lack of it. Those who don't have it try various ways to make up for it. The problem is, there is no substitute for it.

It is the one single skill behind every success, and it is the key to true competitive greatness:

You either have it or you don't. There are no short cuts to getting self discipline. You can't get it from a pill, or a book, or a video.

Anyone can get it, learn it, and develop it. But not everyone does. Not everyone knows where to find it or how to get it. Most people who don't have it think they can be successful in life without it. Except they can't, and they never will be. Without it, any success they are able to achieve is soon squandered and lost.

As a 2 time Black Belt world champion in karate with over 20 years of experience teaching and coaching people just like you - men, women, & children who have gone on to become successful athletes, coaches, trainers, doctors, lawyers, engineers, entrepreneurs... successful professionals at every level, as well as successful husbands & wives, mothers & fathers - I can help you get it. I can help you find it. I can help you develop it. But if you don't get it, then, as Rhadi Ferguson, 2004 Olympian and 4-Time National Judo Champion explains, "you will never find out or discover how good you can be."

If you are looking for a way to find:

• Greater productivity, effectiveness, & success;

• Inspiration through achievement;

• Unshakable self discipline, self respect, self control, and self confidence;

• Increased strength and stamina in both body AND mind;

• Infinite peace & courage;

• Improved focus;

... all while having FUN, then this might be just the coaching program you're looking for. In other words:



There is far more to successs than just trying harder, or consistent practice, or constant repetition. Think about it: How many people start a new diet or join their local gym every January as part of their New Year's Resolution to get in better shape? Maybe you've done the same. You've eaten every meal according to a diet plan. You've been in the gym every day, lifting weights, running on the treadmill, sweating out workout after workout. And yet, by March or April, almost all of you will be back to your old eating habits and disappeared from the gym - and not because you now look like a supermodel, or gotten into elite fighting shape. If the self discipline necessary for success was just about consistency and repetition and working harder, then all of you would have achieved your desired level of physical, mental, and spiritual fitness by simply maintaining your diet and exercise programs. But there is so much more to it than that, regardless of whether you're looking for success in your profession, finances, family, or personal health.

God did not gift me with superior genetics or natural talent. I was never the best athlete. I never had the natural abilities that others were blessed with. I was never the strongest or the fastest. Yet, I am a 2 time Black Belt world champion. How did I do it? With focus, courage, desire... all of the positive attributes you could think of. But they were all supported by one major foundation: A strong self discipline. What do you think you could achieve in your life if you had the self discipline of a champion?
