Overcome Fear Like an Olympian

August 15, 2022

We’ve been wowed by dreams coming true for Olympian glory. Just ask David Boudia from Abilene, Texas, who won the gold for diving in 2012.

He interviewed with an Indianapolis Star reporter and shared insights about what “separates your cream of the crop Olympians to the ones who don’t make it as far.”

The difference, he said, is understanding and respecting fear.

Initially, anyone would be terrified of diving head first into the water, and Boudia was no exception as a kid.

“I worked hard mentally to approach it so I was able to control my thoughts a little better. To be able to understand how to visualize it and see it in my head.”

David Boudia, Olympian Gold Medalist

He drew stick figures to be able to see his success and overcome his fears.

Let’s consider one way that fear affects the brain.

The striatum is a part of the brain that works like muscle memory. It operates on autopilot – an emotional and mental default program that reacts the same way over and over again.

For example:

  • Do you have a tendency to respond repeatedly to situations with anger and frustration or by seeing the silver lining?
  • Is the glass half empty or half full?
  • Do you think what if things don’t work out or what if they do?
  • Is fear something to be avoided at all cost or befriended?

Your responses comprise some of your automatic programs.

According to Dr. Sanjay Gupta, athletes train their amygdala, the memory center of the brain, to make the connection of stress with success, and they don’t even consider failure.

The amygdala is the integrative center for emotions, emotional behavior, and motivation.

To be richly compensated doing what you love involves creating a vortex of energy where you are a magnet of success.

Connecting the dots, when you’ve trained your brain and emotions for success, you can overcome fear and attract your ideal outcomes like an Olympian.

TIP: Overcome Fear Like an Olympian

August 16, 2016
 key - fearless3
We’ve been wowed by dreams coming true for Olympian glory. Just ask David Boudia from Abilene, Texas, who won the gold for diving in 2012.

Last week, he interviewed with an Indianapolis Star reporter and shared insights about what “separates your cream of the crop Olympians to the ones who don’t make it as far.”

The difference, he said, is understanding and respecting fear.

Initially, anyone would be terrified of diving head first into the water, and Boudia was no exception as a kid.

“I worked hard mentally to approach it so I was able to control my thoughts a little better. To be able to understand how to visualize it and see it in my head.”

The amygdala is the integrative center for emotions, emotional behavior, and motivation.

To be richly compensated doing what you love involves creating a vortex of energy where you are a magnet of success.

Connecting the dots, when you’ve trained your brain and emotions for success, you attract it.

Masterminders meet to focus attention on their goals as they align with a field of mastermind energy that can and does manifest goals they choose or something better.

This fun and consistent practice creates a perspective of success which becomes muscle memory for the brain.

The mastermind experience of seeing and feeling success rewires the brain to attract miracles and successes.

Mastermind energy aligns you in a zone where everything works out for you, regardless of how it appears.

It’s like someone falling in a mud puddle and finding a $100 bill.

Masterminding is brain training that puts the kibosh on limiting beliefs butting in about why you can’t do what you love and make your dreams come true.

Napoleon Hill, author of the classic Think and Grow Rich, describes the mastermind.

When two or more people coordinate in a spirit of HARMONY, and work toward a definite objective, they place themselves in position, through that alliance, to absorb power directly from the great universal storehouse of Infinite Intelligence. This is the greatest of all sources of POWER. It is the source to which the genius turns. It is the source to which every great leader turns, (whether he may be conscious of the fact or not).

It’s with our great enthusiasm and caring for others to be free, have fun and live fruitful lives that our masterminders will meet on Sunday afternoon, August 28, to share tips and stories for you to see and feel how your dreams can come true.

More details about Free, Fun & Fruitful are included after the TIP.

Your TIP is to know that you deserve a life of inner and outer freedom where you look forward with happy anticipation of another wonderful day.

You deserve not to worry and be free of fear, which is simply a learned response.

How do I know this? Everyone deserves it, and that includes YOU!

As you wake up, begin by looking for the goodness in your life.

Choose to break any habit you may have of looking for yesterday’s problems to start your day and regurgitating them into the present.

Recognize any challenges you have, but put fear in perspective.

In doing this, you’ll attract Olympic gold in YOUR life.

To fortify your best intentions, join us on Sunday, August 28th for Free, Fun and Fruitful.
