Why striking out can be good

“No” isn’t always the end... [View in Browser]( [TONY ROBBINS]() “You never know when the curveball could be the catalyst for achieving the life of your dreams.” - Tony Robbins Spring is synonymous with new beginnings, and for many it’s a celebration of young minds entering into the world on their own for the first time. Ready to start a new journey in life... ...and soon to be tomorrow’s leaders. Whether you’re a recent grad, someone looking to start their own business, or make a career shift, a look at Tony’s own beginnings can provide guidance for navigating the unexpected. Because here’s the truth: Our lives and the work we do rarely follow a straight line. There are a myriad of dips, twists, turns, catapults, and zigzags. And there are curveballs, {NAME}. Did you know, as a young boy, Tony was convinced he was going to play Major League Baseball? But when he didn’t make his middle school baseball team, he thought his life was over. He just couldn’t hit the curveball. At 14-years-old, it felt like life and death. Even as adults we can have similar feelings when life doesn’t go the way we planned when it comes to our goals. But thankfully Tony didn’t just strike out, he pivoted. And he asked himself a key question: What are the common denominators of what I want to achieve? He wanted to have an impact and help people in their lives. He wanted to live passionately. He wanted to give people unforgettable experiences. And he wanted to be with people and see them reach peak states of celebration and excitement. When it comes to curveballs in our life and career, it can be helpful to come back to our why. What are the common denominators of what YOU want to achieve, {NAME}? Take a moment to say them out loud or write them down (that’s powerful!). Much like Tony, when you uncover the common denominators of what you want to achieve, you’ll find life has a way of seeing them through to fruition. Maybe not in the way you originally planned... But often times bigger and better than you could have dreamed. Tony recently led over 40,000 households through an unforgettable experience during his largest Unleash the Power Within ever. He’s applying the dreams and aspirations he had as a child... He’s on the field every day, serving. And the curveballs? The setbacks? All grace. Having Tony’s live events shut down due to Covid-19 was an unexpected curveball. But now he’s reaching more people than ever with virtual events. If you’re feeling stuck on life not going as planned or fearful of starting out, remember your curveball could actually be the greatest catalyst toward the life of your dreams. Here’s to curveballs, may we meet them with grace and a realization that they are not the end, but the beginning! Team Tony Robbins P.S.
