055: Slaying your Performance Demons

Slaying your Performance Demons 

We all have those demons that hold us back and stop us performing –⁠ it's what we do with them that makes the difference

Be it as simple as a missed opportunity, a messed up skill or routine, or as complex as an injury or you were completely owned by your competitor in front of 100,000 spectators - we all have those internal demons who haunt us and our performance.

Those demons are often the biggest and most painful inhibitor to our progress and us achieving our true potential as an athlete. Those internal thoughts, feelings and emotions can often grow to overwhelm everything else we do, defining and owning us in the process - IF we allow them to.

In this episode #55 of Brain in the Game we will look at what performance demons are, why we have them, their long term consequences and most importantly what we can do to slay those demons forever. So grab your comforter, your tub of popcorn as we settle into a horror story where the good-guy slays the demon with science!
