THE MIND is an immensely powerful tool. We all have the same human capabilities but each person must decide to tap into the potential that lies within them. It’s said that most people only use 10% of their brain’s capacity. Why is this? it is because they have not been shown how to tap into the other 90%. Sport and business run on the same parallels. However, if you want to be successful it is down to how you think. How does an athlete go from being just in the starting line-up in a team to becoming one of the best in the world? Apart from their sporting attributes, a disciplined and focused mind had to be developed before they could showcase their full potential to the world. In this section we will delve deeply into the mindset of a champion.
