One of the most common issues with developing athletes is understanding the role motivation plays.

Face your doubts. Make them a part of the conversation. Talk about what you don’t want to talk about.

I asked around a bit this week with athletes and colleagues who they looked up to when it came to people with strong mindsets.

"Attitude is free

Desire costs nothing

Passion has no price tag

You pay zero for commitment"

There is a lot of Information out there these days - read it or listen to it or watch it - but don’t copy it !

Everything we do in sport is done with an emotion behind it. If we are feeling flat we will execute flat. If we are fired up we will fire up in our execution.

A simple plan will beat a complicated plan any day of the week. That simple plan needs to be laser focussed. Train hard, develop fitness, be specific in preparation.
