Whenever you feel discomfort, Barbara Fonti, a pioneer with mental fitness, directs you to ask yourself,  what is the lie I am telling myself?  Once you label a fear as a lie, it loses its power and your negative thoughts can take a back seat to positivity. As part of a global collective focused on living life in peak performance, Barbara’s practice focuses on positive emotions versus negative, with a combination of psychology and neuroscience as well as the habits of successful people who are high level performers. 

 

If you don’t believe you are ready to do this work, Barbara would disagree.  You are simply using up too much energy in the negative spaces of fear.  If you simply want to achieve more (which is everyone), you are a candidate for mental fitness.  

 

Here are a few  amazing tips of successful people to help you with your mental fitness entering 2021:

  1. If something doesn’t go the way you hope it goes, ask yourself what are three possible positive outcomes. 
  2. Put together your goals. When you look back at what you have achieved one year later, you will be impressed with yourself. 
  3. Most successful people are seeking to learn more and grow more.
  4. Self care and self-reflection is non-negotiable.
