How to train yourself to care less what others think

E

The human brain is wired to overvalue the opinions of our peers....it served us back when were roaming the African savanna, but it doesn't serve us as much now. That feeling you get when your friends talk mess about you, when your parents disapprove, or when you miss a shot in a game...That feeling paralyzes many and prevents them from taking risks or doing what is necessary. You cannot be a victim to this disease, you have to learn how to overcome the fear of others opinions...but how? How can you practically and systematically build immunity to what stops so many others? In this episode, I show you how I approach this problem. 210 Time Stamps: (1:21) Welcome to the Sports Motivation Podcast (1:31) Training on how to care less what others think (2:58) Name one high performer who wasn't motivated (4:00) Michael Moss: Salt Sugar Fat: How the Food Giants Hooked Us (4:12) Ray Dalio: Principles (4:33) Higher versus lower self (7:36) We all have the same needs and fears (8:23) Step 1- Learn how to breathe (10:18) Mark Divine: Unbeatable Mind and Way of the SEAL (11:26) Step 2- Analyze your goals and your vision (14:25) I answer to King Zeus (15:02) Make yourself a disciple of your vision (16:20) Step 3- Put yourself in more situations where you can be judged (18:16) Remind yourself about how much people really don't care about you (22:03) Opinions that we are afraid of are literally nothing

Although you cannot always relate to the problems of these big name celebrities and superstars, a lot of times it's really easy to see how mentally weak some of them are and how much help they need in terms of developing a more dominate mindset and bulletproof confidence and certainty.

As we wrap up Kobe's Film Room series, today we examine the importance of curiosity. The Black Mamba was a true student to the game of basketball, with an unbeatable desire to learn EVERYTHING he could. Even if it took a few cold calls here and there, Kobe followed through… What does this mean for you? How will you interpret this past week's deep dive into Mr. Bryant's mind? Will you soak it in and do nothing, or will you adopt this mentality? The choice is yours. Time Stamps: (2:21) Part 3 of the FILM ROOM! (4:37) A brief review of parts 1 of 2 (5:48) CURIOSITY.
