Episode 408: Developing Mental Fortitude
About this episode
This episode explores whether mental strength is innate or built, discussing how to align perceived limits with actual limits through preparation and teamwork.
There are two big questions underpinning this episode... Is mental strength innate or do you build it? What's the distance between your true limits and the perceived limits posed by your mind? We discuss these questions to open the episode. We truly do believe that mental fortitude is built. AND, there is plenty of room to better match your perceived limits with your actual limits. To do that, you have to work at it, and we break down how to do so. Know your plan. Bring your mental tools to race day. Build the mentality needed to give your all. Execute, apply, learn. And finally, do it with a team to best hone your mental skills.
