Motivation
Finding what is actually inside the individual, and what to do when the drive that got them there runs out.
Many athletes are motivated by the mere fact that they have reached their destination and accomplished their goals — whether as an elite athlete, a collegiate athlete or a high school athlete. I work on motivation by finding out what is inside the individual and listening to what they want to accomplish. I observe performance, learn the athlete’s performance history, and identify the key characteristics of why they are in sport.
Athletic scenario: motivation
A body builder had concerns about training and was feeling burnt out from diet, the stage and the gym scene. She had been competing for three years and was no longer motivated by her sport. I had her reaffirm her goals, but also asked whether she needed to step away from the sport for a while — still training, but in different areas and different sports, from biking to swimming and triathlon. She gave it about six months and is now getting back into her primary sport of body building. This gave her back the drive and motivation to compete, and to discover new goals.
