At some point we realize that we are identified not by our performance but our character. That the way that we treat people matters far more then the frequency in which we beat people.
This episode was one that I couldn't wait to record and it's all about gratitude. Take a ride with me as we start back at my first Spring Fling Million win and end with the second win focusing on gratitude.
The phrase 'let it be' can have dual meanings in racing. Both cultivate a similar physiology. In both, we are choosing to rest in confidence. We are prepared. We are experienced. We are ready,
In this episode, we're going to do something a little different. I'm going to read my latest column on Confidence from The Science of Winning. If you like this format, let us know!
Being nervous doesn't mean you are unprepared or uncertain. It is possible to be both confident and nervous. Embrace the nerves.
When we struggle on the starting line, we inherently look for reasons why. We don’t want to admit that the weak link is us. Whether that is mental or physical mechanics. How do fix it? Train it. Trust It.
We all have our days. Days when we feel not so great or feeling perhaps even sorry for our selves. That trap we fall into seeing this life as a burden. Flip the script and see it as a gift.
Last episode we talked about memory and focused on the things we want/need to remember. On this episode, let's explore the things that we might be better served to forget!
I've raced for a long time, so I tend to take for granted some of the simple stuff. This quote can be adapted to our racing “If there’s a request that you keep forgetting, that’s a sign that it isn’t very important. The really important stuff doesn’t go away.” - Jason Fried.
As we prepare for the upcoming season, it's natural to focus in on goal setting. But what we think about our goals for the upcoming season, we are usually thinking of the ultimate outcome. It's important to note that our outcomes in this sport are interdependent.
We have so many things in our racing and in our lives that we connect the dots seemingly automatically. Probably way more often then we even realize. Connecting the dots on what we actually hear versus what we know or assume is happening.
"To each, there comes in their lifetime a special moment when they are figuratively tapped on the shoulder and offered the chance to do a very special thing, unique to them and fitted to their talents. What a tragedy if that moment finds them unprepared or unqualified for that which could have been their finest hour." - Winston Churchill
Fear of Other People's Opinions. FOPO. In racing it's easy to caught up in wanting others to see us in a positive way, to recognize our talents. How do we stop caring what others think? Or at the very least how do we care less?
In Dr. Bob Rotella's book "How Champions Think" he introduces 'Train it. Trust it'. He talks about how having that mindset can change your game. In this episode, Luke talks about how we can apply that same mindset in our racecars.
We have all been there, your on a run and you get dropped on your head. Of course it always seems to be on the run when your car picks up too, right? Is there anything that you can do to prevent it? Can you really 'catch the drop'?

Racing is hard. The margins are thinner then ever and you will lay down a run that isn't good enough. In this episode, Luke talks about the importance of not becoming the victim, the only one it happens to.
