S2E16: Confident Athlete Blueprint
Today, I’m going to show you the anatomy of a confident athlete.
After reading this, you’ll know how to build your confidence and start performing like you believe in yourself.
Because right now, I’m guessing there’s a little too much self-doubt in your performances…
…not enough belief…
…and a whole bunch of unhelpful self-talk.
Which means that progress is slow and training has stopped being enjoyable.
Most athletes never discover their confidence for two main reasons:
- They see confidence as a character trait which is set in stone, and not a trainable skill
- They never put the reps into changing it
Today, I’ll give you the first steps in changing that.

I’m going to explain to you the four things confident athletes do, that you don’t do:
- Detaching from the problem
- Having something worth fighting for
- Creating the vital distance
- Creating effortless effort
