Soon, Everyone Forgets

from The Inspired Athlete · host Mike Brilla

Welcome to the Inspired Athlete podcast! In this episode, we are tackling one of the heaviest burdens our teenage athletes carry: the crushing weight of trying to please everyone around them . Drawing on a powerful (and surprisingly liberating) quote from Marcus Aurelius—"soon you will have forgotten everything, soon everything will have forgotten you"—we dive into how we can help our kids drop the heavy backpack of other people's expectations . I talk about the danger of "time traveling" in performance , why we need to help them put on mental "blinkers" to block out the noise , and how shifting from an external scoreboard to an internal one builds unstoppable, lasting confidence . Plus, I'll share details on my 6-step Inspired Game Plan, designed to help athletes separate who they are from how they perform so they can compete freely . Head over to inspiredathletemp.com to learn how we can train your athlete's mental game with intention ! Let's dive in !
