MAVisualisation is one of the most powerful mental training tools in the world.
And if you’re not using it, you’re at a disadvantage (especially athletes/high performers/leaders)
There are 5 types:
1. Outcome
2. Process
3. Negative
4. Creative
5. Explorative
And it works because the brain activates nearly identical neural activity when you imagine something vs when you’re actually doing it. So basically it struggles to tell the difference.
Most people visualise worst case scenarios. Therefore you become more anxious, fearful and perform worse.
Here Olympic skiers, DJokovic, Michael phelps, the Blue Angels and Carlos Sainz all use it to rewire their brain to think, feel and perform the best they have.
It’s a super power once you know how to properly use it and integrate it into your training.
Mindset gives you the edge.
P.s that’s why I wrote the book ‘VISUALISE’ I have spent the last 10 years researching and practicing everything about this particular skill. Comment ‘BOOK’ for the link.
And I’m curious! Do you use visualisation? For what? Let me know in the comments
