In those moments when you feel like quitting or when it feels insurmountable, press pause and write down those three Cs and activate a sense of control, a perspective of challenge and a desire of commitment towards who you are, what you're doing and why you're doing what you're doing.     STANDOUT QUOTES “I feel like that's a recurring theme. All these studies that we're talking about often leads to better mental and physical health.” -Dr. Amber Selking  [05:06] “Let's not pretend like nobody ever gets hurt and make people feel bad when they do get hurt and tell them to suck it up. That's not what we do in sport. We send them to the training room. They have surgery. They go to the doctor. They do rehab and then guess what, they're back at it. That's what clinical counseling and psychology can do when we get beat up, because we need that. But how do we continue to train and wire our brains like being in the weight room as an athlete? To cultivate the elements that we know drive high performance? And hardiness is one of them.” -Dr. Amber Selking  [07:42] “When these three Cs in some combination come together of control, of challenge, of commitment, we're able to be hardy even when it's most difficult in our lives. ” -Dr. Amber Selking  [13:18] “Success means having the courage, the determination and the will to become the person you believe you were meant to be. That person doesn't become when things are always good and easy. Most often, that person becomes in the light of challenge, in the midst of difficulty, in a season of pain and despair.” -Dr. Amber Selking  [15:51]   Please get on iTunes to rate us and write a review for us!

I really didn’t. I didn’t start my business to make a ton of money. I started my business so I can live the life and the lifestyle that I want to live, and that involves resting.” -Michael Yoder [21:54] “But one of the things that I think that we forget as high performers, particularly in our society, is that recovery is part of the performance process.” -Dr. Amber Selking [22:29] Please get on iTunes to rate us and write a review for us!
