Brad says it all... and it applies to all sports and all aspects of life!

Bradley Wiggins highlights the importance of mindset, psychology in other words! He seems to be selling psychology pretty well.

I don't really understand why this is new to people because psychology is by definition all about people, the understanding of people. Therefore, if we want to know about ourselves or how to improve then it will always be about psychology. Anyway, that's by-the-by! It's good that this is now becoming more mainstream, however, it's surprising how few people actually work on themselves in this way.

Brad talks about different cycling events, transferring from different disciplines etc., and that it all comes down to mindset. Your training, your preparation, your performance (the execution of all your training and preparation) in competition. I would also add the analysis of performance, emotional management, the ability to learn and adapt... the list goes on and on. If there is an area of your performance that you would like to improve then it starts with your mindset, psychology!
