Sorry if all I am writing about at the moment is the Olympics, but I am really hooked. Team GB are doing an amazing job! These athletes have all worked hard to develop, what must be, a level of raw talent. Makes me wonder what makes the difference between a 'recreational' athlete and a 'world class' athlete. Is it about getting the best coaches, or is there more to it than that? I find the British cycling team a fantastic example of the difference that preparation can make. They look at every aspect of performance and focus on marginal gains. The theory is, if you can achieve small improvements in different aspects, then these can make the difference between winning and losing. In a sport where less than a second matters these marginal gains make the difference. So they look at what the athletes eat, how and when they train, how long they sleep. They look at the bikes and the technical equipment, always looking for that 1% improvement in performance. And they also focus on mental preparation. that really is critical.
How do you keep going when your body is screaming at you to stop?
How do you keep going when your brain is telling you it is hopeless you are not good enough?
How do you keep going when you really just want to stay at home and watch telly, or go down to the pub with your mates?
For me that's the critical aspect of achieving your goals - keeping going. I may never get an Olympic Gold, but I will keep going and following my dreams.
Fortunately there are a few things you can do to help tame your unruly subconscious mind when it starts throwing limiting beliefs at you. Perhaps the most powerful are available by using nlp techniques. These tools and techniques really can help you to bypass the critical conscious mind, remove the limiting beliefs that are holding you back and help you achieve your true potential.
Good luck
