Daily Driver

Have you ever lost to "that guy"? That guy you know you're better than and probably should have beat? Of course you have; we all have. That's the reality of our game. Anyone is capable of making a great lap at anytime. The point is: you can only control what happens in your lane. In today's arena, you can't afford to take any round off.

Are you spending time on the "right" things? Or are you just doing the same old tasks over and over again to make yourself feel good? It's easy to fill our plate with "busy work" when things get tough. It's a trick our brains use to help make us feel better when we're stressed, or we have a lot on our plate. But is this serving us? This episode is a "check" to ask yourself, "Am I spending my time on the right things?".

With momentum comes confidence. That's why it's easier to "keep rolling" than it is to "get rolling". But what if you could create your own, sustainable, confidence and transcend beyond the mercy of "random" momentum?

The right strategy for a given round of competition is situational; it depends on a variety of factors. In this moment, you can either "trust your gut" and go with the first strategy that comes to mind, or you can rethink yourself and make the race too complicated. Which option will you execute with precision more often than not? 

The "hardest" round to win is the one after we just lost. Positive momentum can turn into assaulting doubt in a heartbeat. However, our last performance impacts our next performance only to the extent that we allow it. "Race forward" and focus on the most important round: this one.
