ALPHA Human Performance: Win Forever is not just a mantra

Pete Carroll formulated his life philosophy about what it takes to win not only on the field, but in life through what he called a "Win Forever" approach. This approach is steeped in the ideal that success can happen everyday, and is wrapped around the notion that competion breeds success.

Today focus on what you want in life, and compete like heck to get it. Stop thinking of life in terms of wins and losses, and start thinking that you can "Win Forever" everyday. See your vision, create your plan, then execute it like crazy competing to do the best you can do. If you fail, make a mistake or misstep, just see it as part of the process----and WIN anyways.
