Sports Motivation Podcast By I'm Not You | Mindset | Strategies | Habits | Psychology | Athlete Development | Host Niyi Sobo

Although you cannot always relate to the problems of these big name celebrities and superstars, a lot of times it's really easy to see how mentally weak some of them are and how much help they need in terms of developing a more dominate mindset and bulletproof confidence and certainty. I've done something very different in this episode, and I am sure it will rub some of you the wrong way. What I've done is taken Kendall Jenner, and broken down my strategy of how I would work with her if given a chance. I got the chance to see some of her mental weaknesses, and I know how these weaknesses will affect her if not addressed. How many "celebrities" have we seen meltdown and flame out after controversies or adversity? In the episode, I talk directly to Kendall, and give her a few doses of reality along with my prescribed course of action to help her take the game over and be mentally unstoppable. I'll be doing these celebrity reality checks on more athletes and celebrities as they expose their weaknesses to the gen

As you move more aggressively towards becoming the best, you'll have people who you trust and love start to take you for a joke...maybe they question you, maybe they laugh or mock your goals and visions...Maybe you're even trying to take a friend along with you towards greatness but they don't seem to be responding the way you want. How do you handle that? How do you stay focused even when they aren't taking you serious? How do you ignore that? In today's episode, I break down a simple formula and mindset that will help you to overcome that challenge.   208 Time Stamps: (1:30) Where are you at with your goals? (2:24) Story about my high school days (3:39) My college walk-on days (5:30) Reality: your family and friends do not know sh*t (6:52) Get clear on your outcome  (7:24) Get clear on your why as they align with who you are (8:50) Educate yourself on your decision (10:16) Create a plan to get you there (11:10) Work your ass off daily towards your goals (13:11) Keep your mouth shut in the beginning (13:55)

Being a leader is one of those cliches, that everyone says they want to be, but no one really knows how to do. It's an art and it's simple and complex at the same time. I break down the legendary Peter Drucker in this classic book and give you my take on it.

What are the REAL reasons that you want to accomplish your goals? What are the deepest dark motivators that you don't tell anyone? It's about time you come to terms with them so you can finally become the version of yourself you are destined to be. The only way to do that is by owning who you are unapologetically. This is what Floyd does brilliantly. Listen to this episode to find out his mindset towards women, vegas and strip clubs, and why I believe that is what makes him undefeated and TBE.

Are you playing chess or checkers? Do you just take action, or is your action calculated and strategic? It's part 2, and in this episode I show you how Mayweather is 50-0 because he planned it that way and he planned it like a war general plans to win war. It's complex. I show you in this episode how to apply Floyd's mindset to be a better planner, more calculated and reach results faster without half the frustration.  Episode 205 Time Stamps: (2:30) - Welcome back to the Film Room Series!

When studying and analyzing the legendary Floyd Mayweather, one of his core principles and traits is what I call CERTAINTY. It's like confidence on steroids... It's about KNOWING from your core that you're the best. But how did he create this characteristic? And is this a quality that anyone can adopt, or is he just a cocky guy who was born that way? I show you how and why he's so certain, and how you can be the same way. Episode 204 Time Stamps: (2:30) Welcome back to the Film Room Series!
