Episode 33: Dave Niethe {Creating A Tenacious Resolve}

In this episode I have Big Dave Niethe on the show. Dave is a mental performance coach from New Zealand who has been a large part of pioneering the Mental Performance industry. We all deal with adversity in different areas of our careers. Whether it be peers not believing in our goals, facing defeat in high level competition, being put down, or any other difficulty you face, Dave does a great job in breaking down how to deal with it best. This is not a "10 steps to better mental performance" BS talk, this is fundamental. Dave breaks down the importance of your own self dialogue and what you can do to make it serve you instead of letting it get you down. Once you can build your own self confidence then you can use that to stop letting external feedback get you down.Beyond simply self dialogue, Dave does a great job of breaking down the process of how he builds his world champion athletes and what it is that creates the difference between those who are champions and those who come second.  It is not some massive difference in skill or genetics, it is the little things. It may be a cliche, but it still rings true.1. Create a clear vision2. Remember your why3. Stay accountable to your vision4. Allow your self dialogue to serve you5. Give yourself permission to succeedI think the biggest take away for me through this hour and change was the continuing realization that everyone has all the tools they need to succeed already. It will really come down to how badly you want it and how much extra you are willing to do. Instead of simply thinking about practicing your skill, how much further can you take it? Are you working on your mental performance?Are you allowing external feedback to get you down?How do you speak to yourself? Start thinking about what the next step is in your process to become a better athlete. If you don't know yourself, start asking others. There is ALWAYS a next step.Thank you for tuning into another episode of The Elite Development Podcast!
