What Do Olympians Do
It
starts with a dream. They don’t think
about the gold at first. They just want
to stand on the podium at the end and hear their anthem and celebrate the
cheers of their country.
They
expect pain, and overcoming injury. They
listen for the 3:30 AM alarm,
even on Sunday’s, so they can gain a better
edge.
They
play mental games with themselves. They
imagine their skill at its peak. They
feel the wind, they sense the turns and the twists, the jumps and the landings. They visualize every second of their
performance, and they haven’t even gotten out of bed yet.
They
leave parties early, they avoid foods that don’t benefit their bodies, they eat
and drink as part of their strategy.
They practice mindfulness in the smallest of details.
They
choose!
What
is your sport? Growing a business,
writing, singing, playing drums? Maybe
it’s time to do what Olympians do.
Maybe!
