Just as the Beijing Winter Olympic competition was getting underway, Anastasia pedaled up alongside Canada's most recent Olympic medallist- track Cyclist Kelsey Mitchell. Her golden ride was the final capping glory on Canada's Tokyo campaign. Olympians, regardless of winter or summer specialization, can always learn from one another. So Anastasia tapped Mitchell for insights and advice on getting into medal contention. Mitchell's trip to the top followed an unusual course. She had barely pedaled a bike two years before Tokyo when the track team brought her into the fold, straight from an RBC training ground tryout. So there certainly wasn't any ten year master plan to look back on. Mitchell, like many athletes, is evidence that Visualisation works. In fact- she couldn't help herself, vivid images of being decorated with the gold medal would occur to her at all hours of the day and night. She almost had to work at NOT visualizing. Mitchell also confides that the oldest advice in the game really worked for her. Trust the process. Trust your training. Do the work and have confidence in your training. That way- when life throws curve balls- a week before her Olympic race, Mitchell came down with a cold- an athlete doesn't need to panic. Coughs will cease, noses will stop running, and a lifetime- or at least a couple of years- of hard work will take over from there.

Feb/08/2021 Boycotting 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic

Why is China so much isolated?We all get to know about what the Chinese “government” is doing, but we are never informed of what really is happening in China.Robin Daverman, World travelerWritten Feb 20 · Upvoted by Xinchun Li, lives in ChinaWhy is China so much isolated?LOL! Maybe because China exists in a parallel universe, and operating on a different wavelength?Seriously, if you open any newspaper in the US or Europe, the front line news must be about Trump. What do you think the Chinese newspapers are talking about? The top news on People Daily, the flagship newspaper in China, on February 19, 2017, is:“Small investigation found that kids' homework is gradually becoming parents' homework, because the homework level is not developmentally appropriate. Education authority should do something about it. “There. No Trump. No War on Terror. No War on Drug. No Refugee Crisis. This is the top news. About homework. You can't even make this sh*t up! It's like the whole world is gathered around the theater, but China is off doing her own thing. And it has always been that way, like forever.You see, the top three domestic agenda that the Chinese are concerned about, right now, are the economic transition, elimination of extreme poverty by 2020, and anti-corruption. International news is like 5% of what people read about, and even that, the Chinese are mostly concerned about the kind of stuff where she has made an international commitment, like the global economy, the climate treaty, clock starting for the Beijing Winter Olympic 2018 - commitment that one must deliver, so they have to stay on top of it. Other things, well, it's not that China is isolated. It's that she's 50 feet off the theater to begin with.
