Alan Stein Jr. is an experienced keynote speaker, author, and performance coach. He鈥檚 passionate about helping people change their behaviors and spent 15 years working with high-performing athletes. He shares how embracing adaptability and a growth mindset can help you succeed in this episode of Motivational Mondays.
Alan teaches principles that help people in every aspect of their life. He was a dedicated athlete who became a dedicated performance coach. He learned that the same principles that made Kevin Durant, Steph Curry, and Kobe Bryant elite on the court are the ones that help people perform in their personal lives.
What you do cannot be who you are as a human. Anytime you attach your self-worth, confidence, and beliefs to external results, it鈥檚 dangerous. When you perform at a high level, you feel great but when you don鈥檛 achieve your goals, you feel lousy.
Alan chooses to be process-oriented. He focuses on changing his habits and embracing a growth mindset. If he falls short of a goal, it motivates him to figure out what to do differently. You have to separate who you are from what you do.
Great leaders are adaptable. They don鈥檛 allow the outer world to dictate their inner world. It鈥檚 your job to adapt and persevere. If a minor annoyance derails your whole day, you鈥檒l struggle when life throws you the big stuff. Things will happen that you can鈥檛 change but you can control how you respond.
Our beliefs are shaped by our backgrounds and experiences. You must understand that everyone views things differently than you and that you鈥檙e each entitled to your own beliefs. Alan embraces a difference in opinion with curiosity and strives to learn why someone believes what they do.
