Rienzo Colpo
I know what it's like living feeling like you are capable of so much, and that you just know! That you have the wisdom and potential, you just need to find out how to ignite your success. My name is Rienzo and this podcast is the place for those out there who are clear that your personal performance starts with your mindset, and the quality of your mental game determines the level of your success. With it, I challenge you to start believing in yourself and holding yourself accountable for your greatest potential.
“To know yourself, you must sacrifice the illusion that you already do.” — Vironika Tugaleva.
Everything we think, decide and do is linked. Who we are being is directly responsible for what we are able (or not) to achieve and so the greatest tool that any Athlete or Leader may have, is the ability to self-reflect. Honestly and in full Vulnerability. And this is really uncomfortable. It's just as uncomfortable to park what you know and pretend you don't know - to access new information, experiences and insights. But how much more formidable can you be if you add this to your tool kit?
In the seriousness of training and performance have you lost sight of what is most important? Do you remember why you LOVED doing your sport? Why you chose THIS?
So often it is easy to be sucked into goals and race performance and this can be the source of great disappointment and frustration. It is critical to long term success and fulfilment, to have your priorities right. So what should your priorities be? Have a listen as Rienzo unpacked a perspective on this.
It's great while the going is good. But what are your levers and how do you pull them when things get tough? Do you have sufficient connection to your PURPOSE to draw inspiration and motivation? Do you hold yourself sufficiently accountable for doing the work?
Rienzo discusses how to move from the year past into the new year. And how to set yourself up for success this year. Oh, and how to finally male peace with this whole new year's resolution business.
All of us are looking for the secret, the silver bullet to success. To achieving that goal, that GOLD! In this episode we unpack what that secret silver bullet is. But it's going to require absolute commitment ;)
The quality of the language we use internally, determines how successful we are with our commitments. Today's episode is all about The Language of Commitment. How do we support our ability to be successful by using language that drives this. Fun fact: did you know that humans are the only species that uses language to determine our experience of life. Let that sink in for a bit while you enjoy our latest episode.... and let us know what your thoughts are.
Today's episode is a challenge to look at your substance. It's wonderful to have a Why, and to have goals. But do you have real COMMITMENT? Would you be prepared to set your ego aside and do what's most uncomfortable, to achieve your success?
