Solving Pandemic Problems - Maintaining your Stamina
“Maintain that motivation to go from A to B and to keep your focus on that target without any weakening. That is called tenacity; stamina in your motivation.”
- Arsene Wenger
I am making an effort to maintain my stamina as we near a year of Covid-19 shutdowns. This led me to some interesting findings about Olympians who compete at the highest level and how they stay motivated.
What separates an Olympic athlete from others is how they use their minds to overcome and compete. Here are five things we can do to maintain our stamina:
Positive Thinking
“If you tell yourself something long enough, you will make it true.” Make sure your inner dialogue is positive.
Use Visualization
See the positive outcome of the future. If you can see you, you can be it.
Make Short Distance Goals
How does Tiffany complete a 4 mile Run/Walk? “Complete short distance goals equal long distance endurance.” I set short, achievable goals to keep myself motivated.
Plan for Setbacks
We have to be able to REGAIN our focus when things go wrong. Olympic athletes have a structured daily routine that they follow religiously. Any setback is in the past and they get back to that routine immediately following a loss or disappointment.
Practice 10 minutes of Daily Peace
What brings your mind peace? For me it is cooking dinner with and for my family, long walks, spending time with my dogs.
