The Confidence Reflection
A couple of days after reading, you will do a workout where you intentionally cultivate confidence. This is not about proving anything to yourself—it’s about feeling what confidence is and how to summon it.
Step 1: Pre-Workout Reflection (5 Minutes)
Before starting, sit quietly and close your eyes. Bring to mind your strongest, most confident moment in sport or life.
- Where were you?
- What were you doing?
- What emotions were present?
- What did it feel like in your body?
Breathe deeply and anchor yourself in that feeling before heading into your session.
Step 2: Mid-Workout Check-In
Halfway through your session, ask yourself:
- Am I carrying confidence right now?
- If not, what small shift can I make? (Posture, breathing, mantra)
- If yes, can I amplify it?
Step 3: Post-Workout Reflection (5 Minutes)
After finishing, journal or voice-record your thoughts:
- Did confidence feel different today?
- What moments made you feel strong?
- How can you bring this feeling into more sessions?
Bonus: Before your next race or key session, return to this entry. Confidence is not something you hope to have—it’s something you practice and choose.
