Summary
So many people want to put limits on our potential, but are we really going to just settle for someone else's opinion? Today, we talk about the unexplored potential inside of you and belief systems that will help you tap into it. Anything Is Possible might be overused as a phrase, but it's definitely not over attempted. Let's take a look inside at ways you're wasting your energy and potential. Let's look at how to be engaged in the process and not let a random race goal take up too much space in your brain. Do the work when resistance is highest. Do yourself the favor of turning all of this into a long term goal.
Topics:
- International races
- Losing your phone
- Distractions
- Flying across the world to dominate like Blummenfelt and Knibb
- Where is Jan Frodeno?
- What your your possibilities?
- Having belief that you can get it done
- Are we going to settle for what others say?
- If you really want to get better . . .
- How protective are you of your personal journey?
- How many energy loss situations do you get in each day?
- Finding net positive energy
- Being INTO your workouts
- Really defining your WHY
- Food and energy. Are you eating too much?
- Embracing the mundane
- 10 mins is way better than zero
