PRO TIPS 
The mindset of a champion: From mantras to daily rituals, it’s important to get your mindset in gear when training.  Here are my top four mindset qualities that will be explained.

  • Being Persistent: When the odds are stacked against you having a positive mind frame is so key!

  • Positivity: It’s hard to be positive all the time but it’s important to make the best of a bad situation. There is always a lesson that can be learned.  

  • Having No Regrets: No regrets ever! Regret can lead to self destruction preventing you from achieving your goals.

  • Vulnerability: This means being able to admit failure! Failing is part of the process to the ability to admit this and share this with others is powerful.

Gratitude leads to results: Simple daily practices can help improve your performance and help you reach your highest potential. By writing down what you are thankful for and/or demonstrating a kind deed can really transform you as a person and as an athlete.
