Get the best out of you

"The quest to be the best is endless. What is extraordinary today will be ordinary tomorrow. It is the trait of all great athletes to be one step ahead." 

During my tennis career, I learn so much from the field and this helped me to become the person that I am today. During the coming weeks, I would like to share some experience with you about the life of a professional athlete and what we can learn from it. These are the first 3 key learnings:

1.   Measure your development

To be the best, athletes must know what and how to improve: what to eat & drink, how to develop a winning mindset, how to train specifically and recover correctly. What you cannot measure, you cannot improve. Feedback is food for champions.

2.   Plan to win

After you identify your strengths and weaknesses, it’s time to plan to win. Research has shown that setting goals is one of the keys to success of all high achievers. It starts with creating your vision of what you want to achieve. Go for your dreams & stretch yourself. Focus on the process and what you need to do to achieve your goal. Be sure to have compelling reasons why you want to do this and don’t forget the fun times and rewards along the way

3.   Anything is possible IF YOU TRULY BELIEVE IN YOURSELF

Believing is what separates champions from other competitors. Before you succeed, you must believe that you can do it. You are not born believing that you will be a professional athlete.It is confidence and a strong inner belief that is vital to success. Extraordinary athletes do everything they can to be the best. First, become aware of what your limiting beliefs are, then let go of them and transform your thinking. Personally, I strongly believed that one day I will be like Chris Evert: A champion playing at Wimbledon or Roland Garros. And...I DID IT!
