W.I.N. Wednesday: Take it and run with it.
I learned the question What’s Important Now? 20 years ago from reading Winning Every Day by Lou Holtz (I went back years later to reread the W.I.N. chapter and discovered it was only two sentences.). About the same time I happened to watch a couple of videos of Coach Holtz talking about life lessons and leadership lessons and in those he talked about W.I.N.. I have been teaching it, talking about it for 20 years and writing about it for over 16 years and started referring to W.I.N. as Life’s Most Powerful Question. I don’t own What’s Important Now? To my knowledge it is not trademarked or copyrighted. I am certainly not the only person using or teaching it. Michael Phelps wrote about how he used W.I.N. in his book No Limits: The Will to Succeed. Brian Cain talks about it in his Mental Performance Management coaching certification program.
Why tell you all this, again? Because I want you to take the W.I.N. philosophy and run with it. Make it your own. Get you own W.I.N. wristbands made up with your company or team colors. Find ways to weave it into what you do, what you teach and into your coaching philosophy.
Teach it as a decision making tool. Teach it to you kids, teach it to the youth sports team you coach and teach it in your workplace and your classrooms. Have the people you teach it to teach it to someone else. If you are willing to share with me how you are using W.I.N. I would love to hear from you so I can share those ideas with others.
I am on a mission to get as many people as possible using, teaching and talking about W.I.N. as a tool to help make better decisions and to help access their inner guide. I could use your help. Will you join me?
Take care.
