1. The Mental aspect.
The first way to become the greatest version of yourself is to face who you are and what’s your strong skills.
You may be strong on your physical side, if your mental game is weak, it will hold you back in your sport and most important in life!
BRADY: “I found that challenges bring out the best in me, today I think back on them as gifts. I fought hard to get to where I am today, which means I know what it means to fight hard. When you’re in a Super Bowl game and your team is three touchdowns down and the clock is running, mental toughness is what makes the difference at the end.”
When facing a bigger challenge, tell yourself “I’m meant to be here, I worked hard for it, I’m ready”.
