You can't control life.⁣ ⁣ But you do have an You can't control life.⁣
⁣
But you do have an opportunity to influence it because you decide how you will respond to it.⁣
⁣
When things don’t go your way, what will you choose? To be a victim & climb into the trunk?⁣
⁣
Or stay in the driver’s seat and choose to compete?⁣
⁣
I didn’t feel my best today.⁣
I actually haven’t felt my best this week.⁣
Mentally I’m still grieving Huck.⁣
Physically I’m exhausted.⁣
⁣
But I still choose to show up. It’s not pretty (it’s downright ugly some days), but it beats the opposite.⁣
⁣
If I can do it, you can do it.⁣
⁣
Choose to.⁣
Choose to stay in the driver’s seat.⁣
Choose to compete, because it’s the only thing that gives you a shot at breaking your current challenge. ⁣
⁣
It doesn’t matter what you feel like. It matters what you show up and do.⁣
⁣
I’m cheering for you 🙌
Most of us believe if we’re not light years ahea Most of us believe if we’re not light years ahead, we can’t help.⁣
⁣
I’ll never forget @PatFlynn dispelling that myth for me years ago when he shared on his podcast that you “only need to be one step ahead to help someone else.”⁣
⁣
One step.⁣
⁣
One way how you figured out how to balance working from home and schooling your kids.⁣
⁣
One step to how you’ve gone from never working out to being active just a few days each week.⁣
⁣
One step.⁣
⁣
It’s not much. But it’s a step that someone else watching you, hasn’t taken yet. You get to help them do so.⁣
⁣
If you want help taking the first step on your goals & systems, invest time into this week’s @17TwentyPodcast that I was fortunate to join.⁣
⁣
We talked goals, getting started, & how to take one step in the right direction this week.⁣
⁣
“Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?’” - Martin Luther King, Jr.⁣
⁣
So what can you do today to help someone else increase their life trajectory upwards? #CompeteEveryDay
I hate being referred to as the equivalent of Chri I hate being referred to as the equivalent of Chris Farley “living in a van down by the river.”⁣
⁣
If you get motivated by my message, that’s awesome.⁣
⁣
But motivation fades and this ain’t a “everyone is going to win” message I’m spreading.⁣
⁣
Everybody wants to win - but not everyone wants to compete.⁣
⁣
Because in competition, there’s a chance you’ll lose.⁣
You’re going to get busted up.⁣
You’re going to have moments of failure.⁣
⁣
Competition = life IN the arena.⁣
⁣
It’s bloody, messy, and imperfect.⁣
⁣
But it’s one heckuva better way to spend a life than wasting away on the sidelines, eventually playing “what if” at the end of life.⁣
⁣
So if you’re someone willing to #Compete, you’re in the right place. You’re my people, and I’m yours.⁣
⁣
If you’re going to show up today and do the work, I’m cheering for you. #CompeteEveryDay
You just have to start somewhere.⁣ ⁣ Don’t f You just have to start somewhere.⁣
⁣
Don’t focus on how far you have to go or how big your dream really is. Focus on how you'll move closer to it today through action.⁣
⁣
Don't let how big your dreams are deter you from starting after them.⁣
⁣
Even Champions start with their first step. If you want something, #CompeteEveryDay to GET IT.⁣
Go after goals that are SO BIG that you even surpr Go after goals that are SO BIG that you even surprise yourself when you achieve.⁣
⁣
Staying with what’s comfortable is for cowards. #CompeteEveryDay⁣

  • *Take action without needing motivation
  • *Boost performance and attitude.

For Details On How Jake Thompson Can Motivate Your Team, Contact Us Here.


COMPETE EVERY DAY

7 THINGS LEADERS DO DIFFERENTLY TO WIN THEIR WORK + LIFE.

How can we raise the bar every day in our organization? What would happen if our team learned to collaborate together and compete against their own previous best?

It’s normal for teams to be distracted, feeling as if they have to compete against everyone else – both inside and outside of your organization. In reality, their greatest competition lies in the mirror and once they discover this, can begin to unlock their greatest potential by raising the bar and their efforts every day.

In this keynote, Jake shares how we can integrate the traits and choices of successful teams in order to inject a positive mindset & “can do” attitude into our team members. Jake teaches audiences key lessons on leadership, grit, and accountability from his years of experience as a successful entrepreneur and leadership coach.

Your audience will learn how successful teams build accountability, positive attitude, and a culture of taking initiative in their professional and personal lives by applying a Competitor’s Mindset each morning.

KEY LESSONS:
  1. Importance of your (small) choices in your (big) success
  2. How to focus on what (actually) matters to grow sales & success
  3. Invest in your professional & personal relationships to grow a powerful network
  4. The importance of a Me vs. Me attitude in reaching your full potential
  5. Why action doesn’t need motivation

To Book Jake for your Organization or Next Event, Contact Us Here or at 972.532.2747.


THE FOCUS OF A CHAMPION

STAY FOCUSED ON WHAT MATTERS MOST.

Choose to lock in on what makes you the most effective instead of being distracted by what’s in the immediate.

Distractions surround us every day. Jake understands that after years spent learning to manage his ADHD and battle his own “shiny object syndrome.” Through trial-and-error, Jake began implementing a now unbeatable daily process that forges his championship focus for success.

In this workshop, audiences will learn how to improve their focus by creating daily processes and habits that keep us constantly advancing. Learn how our choices ultimately choose our fate and how each of us has the ability to more intentionally choose our workday, our output, and our impact.

Learn how a daily plan of attack removes the need for motivation and provides a blueprint process to yield the positive change desired. Instead of being distracted by the “busy,” learn how to stay focused on the best.

KEY LESSONS:
  1. Effectiveness over efficiency
  2. How to eat your elephant-sized goal
  3. The importance of throwing away your “To Do” list “To Get” tasks done
  4. How to best embrace accountability
  5. Create your own winning streak starting today

To Book Jake for your Organization or Next Event, Contact Us Here or at 972.532.2747.


WIN THE NEXT™

DISCOVER THE PROGRAM THAT REDUCES YOUR “TO-DO” LIST & INCREASES YOUR RESULTS!

What if achieving higher levels of success wasn’t about doing more but instead about doing less?

It’s not a fantasy. It’s a reality when you channel a laser-sharp focus in the moment with a powerful daily plan of attack. In this keynote,  Jake teaches how we can create a playbook to win each day, control our schedule from sun-up to sun-down, and still make time for the people that matter.

It’s not about doing more – it’s about doing the right things to move the needle. Your team will leave this session fired up to go 365-0 this year, adding more to your organization’s bottom line without coming close to burnout.

KEY LESSONS:
  1. What a winning daily plan looks like
  2. How to control your morning/afternoon schedules for success
  3. How to eat your elephant-sized team goals
  4. The importance of replacing the need to “feel motivated” with a small action step.

To Book Jake for your Organization or Next Event, Contact Us Here or at 972.532.2747.


THE WINNING (TEAM) FORMULA

CREATE THE CULTURE THAT RAISES THE STANDARD & YOUR SUCCESS
We can do more when we compete together than we ever can alone.
 
In this keynote, teams will learn the importance of competing every day – against their own previous best – while collaborating with their teammates. They’ll learn the importance of focus, accountability, & the three things that great teams in sports, business, & life do best in order to elevate their impact.
 
Learn how embracing an attitude of ownership can kill off excuses & how answering *this* one question every day can change your culture and success this year.
 

KEY LESSONS:

  1. What All Winning Cultures Do
  2. The Importance of Me vs. Me. 
  3. Control Your Controllables
  4. Build a Culture of Accountability.
  5. Answering The One Question That Can Change Your Career – and Life.

To Book Jake for your Organization or Next Event, Contact Us Here or at 972.532.2747.


COMPETITORS GET THE SALE

GAIN THE COMPETITIVE EDGE TO WIN YOUR CAREER.

It takes a lot to stand out in today’s ultra-competitive landscape. Fancy business cards and flashy accessories don’t make you stand out and won’t give you the edge to close the deal.

Jake teaches teams how to make the sale with The Competitor Mindset. Learn how to harness your own competitive fire to help you exceed your goals, grow your sales, and create a daily process that yields results. Your team will leave this talk driven to excel and continually moving forward with enthusiasm, even after hearing the word “no.”

Sales isn’t a line of work for just anyone – and it’s why Competitors find a way to thrive.

KEY LESSONS:
  1. The importance of (unbreakable) mindset
  2. Create a process that creates success
  3. How to look at your Customer – instead of your mirror
  4. Remove motivation from the equation
