Do you feel like there is something holding you back from your big, bold goals, but you can’t quite put your finger on it? This week Vanessa explains that this could be because we are micro quitting. Micro quits are the tiny, subtle, almost invisible ways that we quit on our goals, that slowly chip away at our progress over time. Vanessa challenges to find our own micro quits, and explains how we can shift towards micro commitments instead.

We are conditioned to believe that we have to earn what we have and who we are. This belief influences our actions and the choices we make. As endurance athletes this means many of us believe that we have to earn the right to call ourselves “athletes”, “runners”, “triathletes” or whichever title we might be striving for; that our target pace or watts will validate the identities we’re seeking. Why do we delegate this belief in ourselves to our data numbers or other external factors? This week Vanessa takes a deep dive into how our big, beautiful human brains can sabotage our belief in ourselves, and gives us two simple steps to help build our self-belief (before the data!)

Race season is about to (hopefully!) ramp up in the US, which for many of us triathletes is so exciting after a year of no official start lines. However, racing can also come with a lot of doubt or pressure in the form of the expectations that we put on ourselves as athletes. Vanessa offers us two types of expectations that she believes athletes succumb to, and tells us how we can shift our mental energy from feelings of doubt to confidence and capability.

Last week Vanessa taught us that it is on each of us to take responsibility for our own belief, but where is the best place to start? This week she gives us one belief that we can start to work on right now; our result capacity. A greater result capacity leads to a greater capacity to achieve. Vanessa gives us three questions to ask ourselves that will allow us to get curious about our current result capacity, and teaches us how we can shift our definition of capacity to be centered on what can be produced without limits.
