Successful individuals are Intrinsically motivated.

Your most satisfying performances will be the ones where you take the most risk. Note: satisfying performances are not always necessarily the ones we like the most.

Most of your journey towards reaching your goal will be spent on a Plateau. If you can't spend the required time on the Plateau then you will not see your goals become reality. Unfortunately our society does not encourage us to hang in there when we are in the difficult season of being on a Plateau.

We put the work in and remain consistent so we can be successful right? What can happen when that success comes about?

You cannot feed your Ego and Progress towards your Full Potential at the same time. One eats while the other starves.

Resisting the Urge to Quit is a skill that successful endurance athletes possess. It is NOT however a toughness or grit thing, it is very simply focusing on the right thing when you are faced with these urges during your training and competitions.

Many of us claim to Believe in certain things about ourselves and/or the world around us. How do we know if we truly Believe in these things?

When we don't achieve a goal or perform at an expected standard we often go to the body and see what went wrong. This is a cycle many athletes repeat over and over until they finally think to themselves that perhaps the mind has something to do with falling short of their goals and expectations. A lack of mental fitness cannot overcome being physically fit to achieve your goals.

Let's dispel a false belief...it doesn't take Extraordinary people to do Extraordonary things.

Studies that have larger samples sizes by and large give us better information and data. This is NOT true however when we are looking to see what things we should be doing in order to become the best version of ourselves.

We have the ability to choose one thought over another. Now that's freedom!

Are you leveling up your Habits? What does the leveling up of our Habits prove is going on within us?

In the words of Carl Jung, what we resist persists.

Success is achieved by being Consistent Over Time. We all need to ingrain this truth deeply into our Minds as we enter the New Year and look to execute on instilling new and better Habits.

2022 will be your best year yet in terms of your performance. How can I make such a bold statement for some of you?
