If only what worked for everyone else worked for you.
The amount of times you hear “oh, I just started meditation, and that fixed all my mindset challenges.” “you know when I began journaling, that solved all my issues.” “it was a psychedelic trip that changed my mentality.”
Well, great for that person. But what about for you?
99.9% of your DNA is genetically identical to mine. That doesn’t mean we should follow the same programming, even if we have identical goals. It doesn’t mean our coaches should speak to us in the same way, even if we go to the same gym. It doesn’t mean my mindset practise and yours should be identical.
Mindset is one-size-fits-one.
Are you driven by numbers and quantifiable data? Or is it the feeling that drives performance?
Do you want to succeed because deep down you want to be loved, or do you want to succeed to prove yourself to the world?
You are you; not only because of your parents' genetic data being passed down to you, but because of their parents’ DNA sequences being passed down to them. And so on and so forth since the first living entity on earth. That’s incredibly unique.
Then, you have to consider the fact that every single experience you’ve ever had - every conversation, every reprimand, every pass you made in your school team, every particle of light entering your retina, has shaped you in one way or another.
You - are unique; beautifully so. So you’ve got to find out what works for you. That means certain failure many times. That means stepping away from conformity and safety. That means being taken out by the unknown.
But if you really want to express the most brilliant version of you, you need an idiosyncratic approach - that is an approach that is shaped to your needs.
In this interview with US Olympic swimmer, artist, and founder of RISE athletes, Caroline Burckle, the main theme is this one of finding what works for you, specifically are you a thinker or a feeler?
Expect to also learn, how to find your one-size-fits-one approach how you can regulate your nervous system better, the warning signs you’re not regulated, when split times hurt performance and much more.
