🚀 How did I manage to cover 70 miles with 18,000 feet of climbing in just 29 hours? It wasn’t just physical training—it was a combination of Positive Mental Attitude, Active Posturing, and a technique called Illeism (speaking about yourself in the third person). 🏔️🔍 Positive Mental Attitude kept me focused on what I could do, not on the discomfort. When things got tough, I reminded myself of my strengths and stayed solution-focused. When I focused on solutions, and the things I wanted to happen they got bigger. Same is true for problems, and the things I am trying to avoid.. speak to what you want and don't give power to the things you do not. 💪 Active Posturing—standing tall and maintaining an open, strong body language—boosted my resilience and helped me push through mental and physical fatigue. It’s amazing how much energy your posture can give you. I walked with hands on hips at times and could feel the energy raise in my body. In the picture you can see me in a victory pose, feeling powerful I stand powerfully, but when I don't feel powerful I can still stand with power, and bring about some confidence! 🗣️ Illeism helped me stay objective. By saying, “Chris Norris can handle this,” "Chris Norris is strong" and "Chris Norris is the type of guy that finishes things" I distanced myself from pain and doubt, which made it easier to stay in control. It also works to bring about identity based actions, and habits, as I form in my mind the type of person I am and want to remain, so the difficult actions become less difficult. These strategies don’t just apply to endurance events. They’re life skills for overcoming everyday challenges. What can you take away from this to apply to your life? Let's talk about it!

I just completed Module 1 of the Xpress Course on Peak Mental Performance, and I'm absolutely excited! 💪🧠 Diving into the intricacies of how our brain operates was genuinely enlightening. I discovered powerful techniques such as visualization and meditation, which serve as essential workouts for our minds, much like physical exercises for our bodies. One standout technique that resonated with me is the BAMO method—Breathe and Move On. It's amazing how taking just a few moments for controlled breathing can dramatically reset my whole day. The concept that "thoughts become things" really struck a chord with me. By mastering this practice, we can transform chaos into a sense of calm. The key lies in simply slowing down, being intentional with our actions, practicing the BAMO technique each day, and observing our emotions without the tendency to overanalyze them. This journey is opening new doors for me and helping cultivate a more balanced mindset!

Hi team! Below is an email I received today from a medical student who recently finished MSM training. I’m not sharing this for personal recognition but rather to highlight the importance of the work we are doing. This is yet another doctor who will be happier and healthier who can provide even better care for patients during stressful times. Hey Dr. Raines! Just wanted to send you a quick thank you for all the support you gave during the surgery rotation! I hope you know how much it impacted me and how helpful I found your support and your Resilient Mindset sessions to be! I was dealing with a lot of self-doubt and anxiety during the semester, for numerous reasons, and working with you really helped me believe in myself a little bit more, so I just wanted to say thank you so much for that!
