Lesson #5: “I let negativity roll off me like water off a duck’s back.”
Growing up, Foreman’s life was not an easy one. He experienced one setback after another, each threatening to veer him off course towards greatness. Foreman, however, managed to overcome. From acknowledging his own weaknesses to avoiding the destructive power of negativity, Foreman’s career is evidence that greatness can often come from a path of greater struggle.

The Explanation Gap
Excellent communicators understand that an explanation gap typically results in an execution gap. Remember the old rumor mill game? Tell a phrase to the person next to you at a table. Your neighbor tells it to their neighbor. And so on. Before you know it, the phrase “Let’s wrap the various toys with vibrant colors to excite the recipients” turns into “Let’s rap serious tunes with vibing colors to recite to the residents.”

A Case Study in Success
A PERSONAL STORY Like Michael Jordan, I have achieved everything important in my life and work without any goal-setting. I never wrote down that I would be a professional speaker or author of a book. My background would suggest that what I have accomplished in life is impossible. I was raised on the Navajo Indian reservation. I was the only Caucasian boy in my high school senior class, and most of my peers didn't like me because of the color of my skin-and because of what the bilagonas (white men) did to their ancestors. They held an inherent anger toward me, and I was bullied almost every day.
Leadership Tips: How to Spot Many Forms of Anger
Did you ever see anyone have a "purple fit"? That's when they bang their fists on a desk, sputter and spew, turn various shades of pink and red and either storm out of the room or demand that someone else make a quick exit. It's pretty easy to spot. If it's a boss you usually suck it up, tell a few friends in a whispered "wait till you hear this" manner. Often it produces some good comedy routines a la Jon Stewart, and then it's back to business as usual.

Imagine
It was seven o’clock on a slightly drizzly, busy Saturday night and the 405 freeway was jammed with cars. Unlike what you may see in the movies, there were no horns honking, no raised fists, or yelled epithets. Los Angeles drivers know there’s bunched up traffic on Saturday night and know that fretting about it won’t get them where they’re going any faster. So everyone waited patiently in their metal cubicles as they snaked along to their various destinations....
Action is All
Think about it: How badly do you want to double your sales? What are you prepared to do? By your FRUIT you will be known.
Is Anger Now a Medical Issue?
A November 2007 article states that road rage could be caused by Intermittent Explosive Disorder, making severe anger a medical condition. In this article, I openly and candidly respond to this notion of categorizing a human emotion (and the choices people make because of it) a medical anomaly - one that could be treated with medication, rather than careful examination of one's feelings and choices.

Attack Yourself
You just closed the biggest deal of your career, you blew away your quota, you made the president’s club, you were named sales rep of the year. You just crossed the finish line first . You raised your hands, pumped your fists, and celebrated. You are a winner!
