On this episode, our guest John Richardson talks about mindset and his training leading up to running a sub-4-minute mile at the collegiate level for the University of Kentucky. The Dudeologists also talk with John about breaking through barriers, being resilient and focusing on the important things in life. John gets into coaching and helping others embrace a growth mindset. For John it was running, for others listening to the show it could be any goal you want to achieve! As one of John's coaches said, "A positive mindset is the best performance enhancing drug you can take!" Your most basic abilities CAN be developed through dedication and hard workâchallenge yourself; failure is not evidence of unintelligence but a springboard for growth and for stretching your existing abilities. Leaving behind that fixed mindset and implementing a growth mindset including a love for learning and being resilient are the essential keys to unlocking great accomplishments, achieving your goals and being successful in any endeavor. Changing our beliefs can have a powerful impact.
