“The more shameless you are, the more authentic you can become, the more you can pursue that mastery and that gold performance and maintain it”.
What is the magical ingredient to achieve the energetic balance for extreme performance? What gets an Olympic athlete from a silver to gold medal? Is there a way to get re-motivated once you hit the rock bottom? Can shame deep down block your energy?
Search no more! In part one of this Shameless series, Sofia Beloka guides us through the back door of peak performance, sharing insights of her 20+ years long career of researching and coaching top athletes and business executives. You will hear how they think of failure, juggling priorities, resisting distraction and getting back in the flow. Sofia unravels secret tricks for energy mastery and achieving top performance mindset:
- How to keep on pushing, be persistent and self disciplined when the world seems to be closing on you.
- What can we learn from Olympic athletes and their approach to failure and performance.
- What is the role of shame as a performance saboteur and whether we should become shameless.
- Sneak-peak into the training strategies of paralympians – how accidents, and our response to what life brings, materialise in the world of elite performers.
