Why Mike Tyson Lost And How YOu Can Win!

I just couldn't believe Mike Tyson surrendered.

I was in Vegas for a seminar and I was glued to ESPN after the fight Saturday night and I heard the results.

He lost, he surrendered, but he said something in an interview after the fight that is a huge key to SUCCESS.

It's a key to success that you and I can use to change our lives and radically increase our incomes.

For those that don't know Mike Tyson was one of the greatest boxers in the late 80s, but over the last 15 years his career has been inconsistent.

Saturday night he was just trying to make a comeback and he lost, but here's what he said on why he lost.

In an interview after the fight, the reporter asked, "What happened Mike? You were a big favorite in the fight."

He responded, "I lost my desire, I'm not hungry anymore. I'm wealthy, my kids have money, I have nothing to fight for."

Read that again.

Mike Tyson lost his 'reason why' he wanted to be a boxer.

He lost his hunger. His desire.
And I see too many people these days not having the 'hunger'
necessary to succeed.

You want to have a compelling reason why, a picture of your future that gets you excited, that keeps you hungry.

Ask yourself:

Why do I want to be successful?

What will keep my desire high through challenging times?

Mike Tyson lost his hunger, his 'reason why' and he lost the fight. I should have sent him a copy of my 'Conquering Yourself' manual because it would have helped him find a compelling reason to fight hard and win. http://www.mikelitman.com/creed.html

Success isn't easy, and you make it more difficult without a strong 'reason' that will drive you.

Brian, why do you want to be successful?

Why will you persevere through challenging times?

Mike Tyson was beat up and quit at the start of the 7th round because he lost his drive to compete.

Never lose that drive.

Talk to you soon.
