SUPERCHARGED! How To Enlarge Your Vision (Part 3)
To win, you must expect to win. To unlock the winning vault, preparation and awareness are the keys.
Babe Ruth, a legendary baseball player, is often referred to as the greatest baseball player who ever lived. In 22 seasons, Babe Ruth hit 714 home runs, a mark that stood until 1974. During the 1916 championship title, Babe pitched 13 scoreless innings – a record that remains unbroken today.
There’s a famous story about Babe Ruth, which is one of the famous stories in baseball history. During the third game of the 1932 World Series, the Yankees were in a heated competition with the Chicago Cubs. When Babe Ruth stepped up to the plate, Cub players heckled him, and some fans even threw fruit at him. After two balls and two strikes, the incensed Babe Ruth pointed out to center field. With the next pitch, Babe struck the ball exactly where he had predicted in what was termed the “called shot”.
After the game, somebody asked Babe Ruth, “But suppose you missed that final strike?” Babe was surprised at the question, “Why,” he said, “I never even thought of such a thing.”8 Amazing! That’s the psychology of winning. To be on the winning lane of life demands a mentality.
