Circle of Performance for Athletes
/How do you gain a mental edge over your competition?
Changing states from non-performance enhancing to performance-enhancing using a powerful form of visualization is one key strategy that not only will help you push your limits to the max, but will also give you a decisive advantage over your competition.
'The Circle of Performance' is a powerful mental skill that uses images and video combined with other senses to re-wire your brain around a situation that used to cause you trouble or limited your performance and now, coming from a very resourceful place, it unfolds in a whole new brilliant way.
You can use this skill to experience situations both in and outside of your sport very successfully.
You have images/videos that pop up in your head all the time. Many of those are limiting and worst case scenarios or situations you fear might happen, or happen again.
Images/videos are powerful and when repeated over time, the likelihood of them becoming reality increases (as remember, it's strengthening those unhelpful neuropathways).
The Circle of Performance allows you to re-wire your brain very quickly and easily, and step into powerful resourceful and performance-enhancing states.
You re-create the movies in your head, so you can achieve successful athletic outcomes (and successful situations outside of your sport too).
Using this mental technique and similar ones, the night before her world record breaking lift, Aneela Rose, went from doing a lot of nerve to calm, confident and powerful:
"Adelaide is incredible. The day before my World Championships, when I needed help to control my escalating nerves, she came to the rescue.
Using specialist mindset techniques, she refocused my thinking, in her wonderfully calm and relaxed manner.
She also showed me a slightly different kind of visualization process.
Adelaide worked her magic as I walked away with a world title"
If you listened to this power up, how did it completely change and positively transform how you experienced that situation?
