"You can think your way into a new way of acting, or act your way into a new way of thinking."

  • Sometimes we can’t wait for the right mindset to show up. Sometimes we have to step into the behavior first, and trust that the mindset will follow.

  • Credit is due James Loehr the author of "Mental Toughness Training for Athletes."

  • He says we tend to reside in three energy states:
    1. Relaxed-Ready,
    2. Positive-Energized,
    3. Negative-Energized
    4. and the dreaded Negative-Fatigued

  • To move out of the more negative states into the positive ones we need to use our emotions as data. What are they telling us?

  • Instead of resisting how we feel, we can respond with tools like:
    1. deep breathing,
    2. focusing on the next small step,
    3. reframing self-talk
    4. and leaning on others.

MUSIC: "Poema del Pastor Coya" by Angel Lasala as played by Alison Young, flute and Vicki Seldon, piano.
