READY, MINDSET, GO!

WE WANT TO WORK WITH PEOPLE THAT BELIEVE AS WE BELIEVE, AND ENABLE YOU TO ENJOY RESULTS BEYOND BELIEF.

WHY TRAIN YOUR BRAIN?

When we are operating in a default mindset we are on the opposite side of high performance, often feeling a sense of overwhelm, frustration, fatigue and ultimately burnout. Our minds are not designed to be in a state of ‘high alert’ for extended periods of time and so it becomes super important to train your mind to switch off and on at will. Learning when it’s appropriate to do both is essential to maintaining a consistent performance.

Operating in a high performance mindset means so much more than how we ‘perform’ in the ‘performance’. It refers to all elements of your world before, during and after the performance.

The gritty performance coaching approach provides a methodology to intervene at all three stages of the performance cycle –
before, during and after.

How we do it

There are no two people the same and my coaching sessions are tailored to you and what you WANT to achieve. 

Through firstly getting to know you and seeing the world through your eyes, understanding how you process information, emotions and respond under perceived pressure. 

I utilize highly pragmatic coaching techniques which echo the human psychological processes relating to performance, we will identify a specific performance context, and improve your performance within that context in an observable, measurable way. Then we will apply the mindset shifts (also described as ‘desired state’) at the most powerful place – your unconscious mind. 

This is the part of your mind that stores all memories, it is responsible for developing habits and behaviours, and most importantly, it works on auto pilot 24 hours a day. So it’s important to make sure this massive database is getting the best possible training as it’s the engine driving all your thoughts, decisions, immune system, digestion, and much more! 

We are all doing the best we can with the internal resources we have available. Imagine those internal resources as jars stocked on a shop shelf. My role is to help you put more jars on the shelves to reach for at the moment you want or need them and refill them when they are running low.
