Join the 5 week online course that will give you the skills to access your ultimate performance state by discovering the inner self-belief and self-confidence whilst eliminating self-doubt.
the importance of a positive mindset?
No matter if you are an established professional footballer or an emerging talent, inner confidence and sustained motivation in a results orientated environment is of the most challenging to achieve in sport.
It's not enough to be passionate and talented in a highly competitive industry. Professional and emerging players need to be able to deliver consistently, deal with set-backs and have an unrelenting commitment to achieve their personal ambition.
It is in these moments that we need to focus on ourselves and work towards establishing a balance where our mindset and energy are aligned to perform with passion, desire and commitment.
my football journey
My journey in football has been an interesting one! And like many industries and careers we experience some amazing highs in football, along with some heavy lows that tend to sting a little bit for a while.
I meet young players daily that express the desire to become an elite footballer and play at the top level. I agree, it sounds great, and the fairytale that is painted on instagram and on the news about the lifestyle of the elite player is something all young players want to experience.
However are the emerging talent focusing on the right outcome? Are they committed to becoming an elite player or do they just like the sound of it?
Let's start with the amazing experiences! I was part of a team at Fulham Football Club that overachieved. Over a nine year period with the club we achieved top 10 finishes, reached the latter stages of the FA Cup on numerous occasions and the pinnacle of my time there was the 2010 Europa League Final. The funny thing is, we lost that game in extra time to Athletico Madrid, however I still classify it as a highlight based upon how much I developed as a coach during that period of time and the demands of an extra competition placed on the squad and staff.
My aim was to always be a Head Coach from the minute I saw Roy Hodgson do what he did with that Fulham squad during his time at the club. The role of a Head Coach is where I wanted to be!
CREATING THE WINNING MENTALITY COURSE
The dream became my reality in 2015 when I was announced as the youngest A-League Head Coach in history at just 33. I was proud, I was ready, I accepted the challenge. What was to follow however, wasn't planned and something that took it's toll on me and really challenged my beliefs and love for the game. I was sacked.
It was at this stage that my mentality was really challenged and I had to work hard to recover.
I started to work on creating the Winning Mentality course. I wanted to create a framework for players to utilise that would support their individual development within a team environment. The key was it had to ensure they had the necessary mindset and skills to excel and withstand the pressures of elite football.
I have now delivered The Identity Pro Winning Mentality course to players from four different countries all of whom have greatly benefited from the exposure to the course.
