A New Way of Being

How To Adopt The Habits Of A Record Breaking Team GB Olympic Athlete: Duncan Scott MBE


Listen Later

Duncan Scott became Britain’s most decorated Olympic swimmer ever in Tokyo three years ago when he grabbed a gold and three silvers to add to the two silvers he bagged at Rio 2016. He is in Paris currently, and by the time this is out may have bagged a hatful more medals.

Ahead of Duncan taking to the pool in Paris, we caught up to speak about the habits that have taken him to the top of his sport. From accountability to boundaries and avoiding too much digital distraction, as well as switching off through connection and comedy, Duncan shares so many valuable life lessons.

Duncan is also incredibly humble, a trait I hugely admire, and shares his experience of being in flow and the transcendent performances it helped him produce. There is loads of good stuff in here that anyone will be able to learn from.
