Insights learned from Sam Chauhan

Insights from Sam Chauhan

Recently a friend showed me an article about Sam Chauhan, a mindset coach who was credited for helping various individuals overcome their greatest adversaries: themselves. The following observations are taken from the article.

1. Tiger Woods has numerous coaches that work with him on his mindset. Think about that. Here’s the golfer universally regarded as the best in the world, and yet he constantly finds ways to improve his mindset since he knows golf is the game of the mind. You are in the battle with your own mind.

2. About Ego and Pride: To live with dignity, one must have a modicum of ego and pride. However, like everything else in this world, too much of a good thing is bad. One must cultivate the ability to take things in moderate amounts. Remember others have ego and pride, too. Maybe they have more than you do. It does not matter whether the image they have of themselves is justified or not. What matters is your own image of yourself is justified or not.

3. Everyday, prior to leaving the house, you tell yourself that you are going to conduct yourself in the best manner that you know how, that you are a true member of the species homo sapiens, and not some monkey escaping from a zoo.

4. You want people to be attracted to who you are inside, not of what kind of noise you make. The noise you make had better reflect your true self, and not just to make you look good or feel good.
