I’m down in Kentucky for some business meetings, but right before I left yesterday the power was out at my house, and it reminded me of a great line I always try to think about…

Be a 220 person operating in a 110 world.

For those who don't know, most of the US electrical runs on 110 volts.

Some of the high energy big stuff requires 220 volts.

Double the volts.

A 220 person in a 110 world means a lot of things.

If you're a 220 person...

Your energy is a step ahead of everyone else's.

Your productivity is superior to everyone else's.

Your attitude is extremely positive.

Twice as good.

No time to be average.

Think of how much that can carry over.

There's so much negativity in this world.

There will always be something to complain about.

Why can't we challenge ourselves to be that 220 person in the room?

The person that shines brighter, the person that is more positive, and the person that leads the way.

As always, there's a relation to fitness.

There will always be the people that keep doing the same thing, not willing to change, and expecting different results.

There will always be the people who don't want to put the work in, who just want to be "average."

And there's nothing wrong with that.

But that's the 110 world.

If this resonates with you, you're the type of person that wants to go above and beyond, be that 220 person in the 110 world.

Work twice as hard.

Shine twice as bright.

Be the energy for others.

So many applications...

So I challenge you...

How are you going to be a 220 person in a 110 world?

1% Better.

Dedicated to Your Success,

Doug Spurling
