"The fear is always there but it depends how much you tune into it and how much you listen to it.”

Swedish mountain biker Emil Johansson might be the most successful slopestyle rider in the history of his sport but, as he reveals in this episode of Mind Set Win, fear is still an emotion he experiences every time he puts his helmet on.

To launch his bike off staggering jumps and perform innovative tricks, the three-time Triple Crown of Slopestyle winner explains how trusting in his ability and not second guessing his decisions are the foundation of his winning mindset and the key to his dominance on the track.

Hosts Cédric and York explore how Emil is able to think rationally in key moments and provide a step-by-step plan to help us all train to become more courageous in daily life. The exercise involves frequently putting yourself in uncomfortable situations and challenging yourself to be rational in trying to understand where your fear is coming from and why you’re feeling it.

Regardless, when being your own coach, don’t be disheartened by failure because, as Emil says, you build your courage and self-belief through trial and error.
