Before we start getting into what we need to implement you should be clear by now that,
The way we think controls our actions.
So if you wake up and you feel tired and start to tell yourself you feel tired, you are going to continue to feel tired.
Taking this deeper, this has been shown before that you can literally say to someone randomly (even if they look fine) “you look tired” and they will find a reason to justify what you said, be it:
“I suppose I haven’t really been sleeping so well’ or “I’m a bit stressed at work” etc…
Their brain will justify it, and they may not even look or feel tired before you said. (Try it)
So, with that in mind,
“your mindset, and what you believe about yourself, will dictate your actions and ultimately your results”
If you’re setting targets,
to be more powerful,
to be stronger,
to be more flexible,
to be a better golfer then you’re actually becoming someone else.
Think about that. You want to lose weight, add muscle be super flexible, add 15 yards to your iron shots, and be much more confident, that person is someone else compared to who you are today.
You can’t become someone else if you don’t have the beliefs that it’s possible.
So your focus determines who you are.
With your targets, it becomes “I’m doing this, this is who I am, this is who I’ve become”.
Otherwise, it’s just false confidence.
So when you start telling yourself that this is impossible for you, you’ve got to change it, you’ve got to take action to change those stories and those beliefs, and even the habits that don’t support you on a day to day basis.
Because the stories in your head are carved in like a groove on an old record.
It’s completely and permanently grooved into your brain it’s no different to a movement and your golf swing.
Let’s say you are someone who sways in the backswing.
Your hips move away from the target, your head moves further away from the ball and we find that it’s a tight trail hip and a lack of range of motion in the upper back.
And, you take the actions to correct those physical limitations and you now have control, we’ve increased the range of motion in your upper back, you’ve now got a good range of motion in your hips and how you can turn, but…
You’ve still got the old movement pattern, carved, grooved and absolutely cemented into your head.
So you might still swing the same.
You need the range of motion first then you train the movement.
It’s no different with the stories that you believe about yourself.
You could change what you say to yourself, but that groove is still in the brain.
So we have to break down the parts of the brain and the stories that believe the negative parts are true, we replace them with evidence to prove that they’re not true and back it up with the evidence of ACTION and RESULTS
We use the belief transformer and base it around your 90-day plan but at the deepest level, you are seeing what you believe as true, as false.
What is the story that is holding back your results, and what action could you take to change your stories and get those results?
