The Freedom Project 039: Perfectionism, Pressure & Perception with Hannah Hardy
How you are thought of by others - or rather, how you perceive how others think about you - is what you’re wired to care about.
The most dangerous thing for humans until very recently, has been being kicked out of the tribe.
That’s why you naturally care so much about what people think of you.
But nowadays, your life isn’t on the line if a few gym members don’t like you - even if it feels like it.
And really, no one even notices your mistakes.
Yet fear of standing out - of being the tallest poppy - is often the very thing which holds you back.
“What if I go full send on this workout and people think I’m a try hard?”
“Will mum still love me if I am really successful?”
“Will my friends still want to hang out with me if I don’t go to this event?”
The pursuit of being an elite athlete is fraught with this perceived pressure.
This is what Hannah Hardy, Team Games Athlete and 23rd place finisher in this years’ quarterfinals, had struggled with for so long.
That is until she began working with Mindset Rx’d to train her mindset.
You’re going to hear today how Hannah transformed her mindset. Think of it like a case study which you can listen to in order to extract your own mindset training process.
In Hannah’s words “mindset is the gateway to unlocking your full potential.”
If you listen to this show and think “I would like to know more about training my mindset,” then apply for a free Mindset Assessment with me.
I open up a maximum of three mindset assessments per week which are completely free of charge.
In this assessment, you and I will not only assess your strengths and weaknesses, but also devise a plan for how to train your mindset.
If you want to chat about working together, we can do that, but the main objective is to give you a thorough insight into your own mindset and how to improve it.
To apply for one of these spaces, head to our Instagram @MindsetRxd and click the link in our bio.
Or check the show notes and click the link at the bottom.
Now, I bring you, Hannah Hardy.
