what you need to be a champion

1. State of Mind. Your ability to focus on a certain task and perform that task no matter what, under any conditions with a deliberate attention, can make a huge difference not just in your athletic performance, but your daily life as well. Learn to focus and learn to stay focused and your training and racing will step up higher.
2. High Level of Perception. Perception is our ability to accept, absorb, recognize, identify, distinguish and differentiate the information that comes to us from all directions at high speed. Our perception is everything to our successful survival, but unfortunately, this one single aspect of utmost importance is virtually overlooked in today’s athletic world. Developing your perception to the highest levels will not just elevate you to the next level of performance but it will open the doors to new possibilities by default. A champion's perception allows him/her to compete on another level, because their perception of movement and what needs to happen is backed up by a state of mind that allows the possibility of going beyond the perceived limits. And then the acutely developed perception becomes a guide in swiftly choosing and taking the next required step towards breaking world records.
3. Ability to do the action. To produce the triumphant results, the athlete must possess one more quality that luckily for everyone, can be developed just like the first two. The ability to do what needs to be done, when it matters. In running it comes down to the action of falling and the action of pulling. This last, but not least characteristic brings it all together.

With a proper state of mind, a high level of awareness/perception and the ability to pull it off under pressure, you can become unstoppable! Forge ahead!
