Many of us want it all now especially when we feel it’s far away and want nothing more than a full change in our lives but the truth is we do our best when we get away from trying to make it all happen right now and get started working towards our big “thing”.
This is just a simple example from the toastmasters south tampa public speaking group that I have now joined. Last night in my first session speaking in front of the group, I felt like I wasn’t nearly on point like I desired but I was given feedback at the very end from our grammarian who pointed out my comment that we should all get our 1099 before working on becoming Elon Musk. This applies to all of us including myself as I am working on my speaking skills.
Take this simple idea into 2024!

Mid week is for the recovery. Here’s a clip from my heart opener yoga session today performed at my apartment gym on the mirror device. See not always a meat head and still got the PT in me for some self care and mobility! Then followed up with some cardio kickboxing. Maybe I’ll record some rehab sessions on the mirror one day 🤔

Does your perception of your yourself match up to the praise or criticism you are receiving 🤔⁉️

I focus on the mental side of the game and injury now but I will always have roots in shoulder rehab so I am always learning…Picked this one up from @wilk_kevin earlier this year at his advanced knee and shoulder course. Thanks Kevin!

A re-injury can rub salt in a wound that still feels fresh, but many times it’s that 2nd “time zero” that pushes an elite performer over the edge to make a transformation and using it as fuel to get to the top. There are many stories of pro athletes I’ve worked with that have done just this. The key is in one word
BELIEF that it can be done

Instead of focusing on more physical exertion in sports rehab, focus on using more mental effort through guided imagery like this with the elbow which research has proven to be effective. Happy to share the articles for anyone interested…

We have reached a tipping point since 2020. Just like belonging to a gym or exercising changed in the 80s and 90s now too has mental performance…If doesn’t matter what your field is or your background quite frankly…If you are getting left behind then you aren’t an early adopter of this and probably also took a while to get an iPhone…
This realization was made clear when in the span of just a week I heard several conversations around me at lunch and dinner where people were speaking of the mental side to their pain along with meeting the artist @ahrodmusic who is writing music based on his own journey of growth. Not to mention the fact that he will give @kendricklamar a run for his money…Hearing his lyrics on meditation, manifestation, and emotion resonated deeply with me and my work. AHROD and I put together a special Injured to Elite intro for all of you so stay tuned.

When you get a compliment like this from @xavier_scruggs someone that has the unique perspective from both the broadcasting booth and the field in the show, it means the world ⚾️❤️
Mental game is what is needed. Period. 🎤🫳

I’m fascinated with how the David’s in the world beat Goliath. My mentor John Denney with @theharmonyexercise and I discuss how underdogs use the following to win
✅ Being physically underestimated
✅ The collective conscious
✅ Using a force greater than oneself

Psychological flexibility and the ability to adjust just like a navy seal would is key when the punches are being thrown at your body…
The book Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance by Angela Duckworth was a tremendous inspiration behind my mental approach I take with those that are overcoming physical obstacles. During my time in pro sports, it dawned on me that the “underdog stories” where a performer overcame all odds, shared this one thing in common. Grittiness. I began to give the grit scale assessment to those I was rehabbing and by no surprise the higher the score, the better outcomes I would see…
Many think that it can’t be developed but Angela has shown us it can and that is why I lean into this with Injured to Elite.
Thank you Angela and Carol Dweck out of Stanford for taking your work with children and providing it for the greater good. This is a perfect example of how serving one population in need can translate to an entire world.

Here is a specific look into the novel mental approach to rehab (The Injured to Elite Method) that I teach in The Clinician’s Injured to Elite Academy.
