  • 64. How to Have a Growth vs. Fixed Mindset
    As you probably already know, mindset is key. It can make or break an athlete’s mind, especially when you reflect on your own inherent abilities.
    Today, I’m talking about how to have a growth mindset versus a fixed mindset. These thoughts I’m sharing with you are all derived from Carol Dweck’s book, Mindset, which I highly recommend you check out sometime if this is of interest to you. Dr. Dweck is a researcher at Stanford University.
    Today, lucky for you, I’ll be sharing my thoughts on this book and boiling down a lot of the key concepts in an effort to truly empower you.

  • 63. What are You Willing to Sacrifice for a Goal?
    To meet your goal, you need to reflect on what you are willing to sacrifice to meet it. If you want to add things to your day to accomplish, then you must be willing to sacrifice some things in your day in order to make these things fit. So, what are you willing to sacrifice to make your goals a reality? And no, this is not some "Rah-rah, you must sacrifice everything in your life for your goals!" type of BS mindset. ;)
