What You See And What You Say Inside Is What You Get Outside
‘I felt like I was like floating. It felt like it was effortless and I never felt like that before but it was like the best feeling in the world. I learned a valuable lesson that day. In the all around final I was nervous. I doubted myself and I made a mistake. In the floor final I knew I was going to hit the best routine of my life and I did.’
The Mind Is As Strong As Its Weakest Think – Focus – Certainty
Certainty, knowing you are going to do it, comes from right conditioning and right mindset. It comes from daily practice in creating what you want. Hoping, wishes, wanting doesn’t cut it. Fear, doubting and worry don’t help. BUT Certainty does. Knowing does.
When you become certain, when you know you will succeed, you will succeed! She returned to the Olympics and won Silver in the all around in Rio. She says, ‘I finally competed in an all around without any major error. I finally competed for myself and I finally believed in myself. That was such a good feeling it was really empowering for me.” Isn’t this cool You bet it is. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes
