Emotions Run the Show
Emotional state is a primary indicator of your potential to perform at
your best at any given moment. The goal is to feel the emotions of the
Ideal Performance State (IPS) as outlined in the black circle.
Performer Self
The way you need to feel to achieve IPS and perform at peak levels on
demand is the Performer Self (top row of model). Performer skill
development allows you to reach IPS on demand no matter what is going
on around you.
Performer Self Skills
- Act as if IPS is happening through control of your eyes,
breathing and posture
- Train mentally through imaging, scripting and utilizing power
phrases and questions
- Create rituals by combining thinking and acting skills to trigger
IPS
Real Self
The way you actually feel is called your Real Self (bottom of model).
Notice that Life Skills form the foundation of the entire training.
Health, happiness and balance in life are vital to being a consistent
rider. Through this training, you develop a natural ability of
achieving the emotions of IPS.
Life Skills
