Training: what is your dream?

Setting goals is essential for setting up an accurate work plan. The task of the mental coach is to help the athlete focus them better

Whenever I ask an athlete this question, I get several answers.

There are those who remain silent, those who start crying, those who ask me "in what sense?" and who answers me “once I had one…”

Having a dream to realize means having a reason to work, to commit yourself, to give your best and give meaning to life.

What is a dream

The dream is the first step in creating a goal and consequently a well-structured action plan, to make it come true. They'll tell you that you're grown up now and that you need to open your eyes; they will probably advise you to stop believing in fairy tales and roll up your sleeves while keeping your feet on the ground. But the reality is, there's only one person who can stop you from making it happen, TU

The goal of this article is to make you open the drawer and let your dream breathe, assuming you have one, if you don't have one… well, create it, it's the right time.

After all, dear biker, how many times have we heard the phrase said during award ceremonies and interviews with the winners: "I'm happy, because I have finally fulfilled the dream I had since I was a child of... winning the world championship, the world cup, the Olympics or to wear the national team shirt”?

Do you think that someone at the beginning of his career could have ensured a future of great successes for that winner?

Do you think the one who won didn't have to overcome moments of difficulty?

Do you think that someone hasn't done everything to make him stop believing in his dream, thus thinking of protecting him from possible disappointments?

None of us have all the certainties, we have moments of difficulty and everyone has had, or still has, someone who keeps them grounded. But dear biker, the time has come to break the chain and take care of your dreams, because deep down "no one more than you, can believe it"
