EAGLES VS. TURKEYS
A few years ago
I took a course from legendary coach Mathew Park - Coach] on leadership mindset and setting yourself up for success.
Side note - the course was free to all competitors that had just competed the night before in a big natural bodybuilding, bikini, physique and fitness show. WE WERE EXHAUSTED, but a handful of us showed up all the same .
The biggest take away for me was when Matt asked us to identify 10 turkey and 10 eagle types in our lives .
Turkeys : gossipy, Judgemental, insecure, victim mindset personalities .
Eagles: concerned with their own path, not involved in negativity or gossip. Always working on their self awareness, their success. Confident and non judgmental , lift others up
It’s funny because I had my 10 eagles written down very quickly .
I have been blessed with family, clients and friends that I also consider mentors .
It took me forever to even name 5 turkeys, because I don’t keep these types around me closely .
We don’t vibe . 🤷🏼♀️
Looking around the room at the competitors that decided to spend our first Sunday post show at this leadership course, I couldn’t help but notice we’d all won medals the night before . Each of them was humble in their victory, and kind to everyone around them .
There were a lot of damn eagles in that room looking for more ways to improve.
It’s ok if your inner circle is tight . It’s ok to want to do better, be better, be happier, bring more happiness to others .
Thanks to Mathew Park - Coach] for teaching me this .
Shoutout to all my eagles quietly doing their thing 🦅
Let’s drop the fear and lift each other up to get those big goals this year !
