These are the ways you can maximise control over what happens

What are you attracting into your racing life and is it helping you get what you want?
=================================================================

Hi there

How much control have you had over what’s gone on in your racing life this past season? In fact, how much control have you had over your life as a whole? (Although I’m not intending to directly help you with that one!)

There is a ‘pop’ psychology concept known as the The Law of Attraction and like many such concepts, there’s considerable flannel surrounding it. However, with this, there’s strong evidence to suggest there’s something in parts of it too.

Have a think through what’s gone on in your racing season this year. What sponsors, what opportunities, what deals have come your way? Equally, what problems, what ineffective solutions have come your way? You have attracted some of these situations into your world, both the good ones and the bad ones.

The aspect of control all starts with your own beliefs, then with your own attitude, then your thoughts and then finally your actions.

What beliefs do you have that give you certain attitudes, where these attitudes don’t help you get more budget / more fitness / faster laptimes / etc. You know that with targeted work you can change some of these beliefs for the better too?

* The Mindset for Racing Finish Line *

Your outer world is a reflection of your inner world. What you get / have / become reflects where you were at mentally a short while ago.

There is no voodoo in this. What you focus on and think about determines how you act and how you act determines what happens.

You’re in the driving seat. You are in control. When you puncture / get fired off / get excluded when you never jumped the start / get injured / blow an engine / etc. the one thing that’s totally up to you and only you is your attitude and your response to all this hassle that the racing we love throws at us! (Some of these setbacks mentioned here will, of course, always happen to you, no matter how you think, because they happen to everybody from time-to-time. Where you can edge out your rivals is by turning the negatives into positives and attracting helpful things on the big scale.)

You know what the top guys do and what you should be doing, don’t you?
