Interview with Dieter Oberbichler on Mindset and Goal Setting of an Ironman Finisher

In today’s episode Lisa talks with her husband, Dieter Oberbichler, about what kind of mindset is necessary to soar to new heights and what it really takes to be an Ironman finisher.  Dieter provides examples from his career as a veterinarian as well as his many hobbies: flying, competing in endurance races such as Ironman competitions, diving, etc. Dieter dropped so many valuable nuggets in today's interview that can be applied to any goals we are going after.  Enjoy our chat!

Notable Quotes from today:

"One foot in front of the other is my mantra when my goals seem quite overwhelming to me." ~Dieter Oberbichler

"The best way to stay motivated for huge goals like training and competing in an Ironman competition is to focus on and enjoy the journey rather than receiving the medal at the finish line."

"Slow and steady wins the race, or in my case, finishes the race. This applies to all goals you want to go after and achieve."

"A race such as an Ironman is much more about competing against yourself.  It makes you humble to recognize your limits and it makes you strong to see what you can achieve with peristence and the right mindset."~ 

Top 3 Golden Nuggets:

1. Mindset is the overall attitude one has towards goals - the underlying motivation to pursue a certain dream and the tone that sets the stage for the goal.

2. A proper mindset is a pre-requisite for everyday success; it's also the focus on how I approach things to reduce stress, anxiety and/or risk.

3. A dream is merely an idea, wish or fantasy in my head; a goal is the actionable part of that dream.  And sometimes, it's a matter of opportunity, sometimes a matter of luck and sometimes a matter of persistence that makes your dream come true.
