We have all been afraid of it happening. We have also likely had it happen to us. What causes Choking and how can we not fall victim to it?

Why is it that we choose to add more stress and anxiety to the Present Moment?

In this episode I continue with what I discussed last episode. Our Mental Savings account is the primary limiter of our performance. We can choose to bulk up our savings account to perform at a higher level.

We all have a Mental Savings Account. Each time we train or compete we will need to draw funds from it. How big is your account? If it isn't big enough it really doesn't matter how many goals you set; you will continue to fall short of reaching them.

If you are able to get your focus to the Present Moment and keep it there you will feel empowered. You will be humbled time and time again however as you attempt to do this.

Try again. Fail again. Fail better. -Samuel Beckett In this episode I focus on 2 things:1. the word Again found int he first 2 lines of the quote and what they mean2. What is Failing Better look like and why is it important. 

Your bad days are a better reflection of what you are capable of than your best days.

Have you ever felt like you have 2 dogs within you? One of them is the Positive Dog and the other the Negative Dog? Which one do you think will win when they get into a fight?

The 2021 Texas State Time Trial Championships took place in Hempstead, TX (west of Houston). This year the ITT (Individual Time Trail) and TTT (Team Time Trial) took place on the same day.

Sins of Omisison often times make us feel worse than Sins of Commission. 

What happens when one person is hurling insults and berating another person but the victim is choosing to stay silent and not engage with the abuse? Perhaps the better question is what does this have to do with our performance?

Patience.
