George St-Pierre on How Our Body Language & Self Talk Fuel Our Confidence
George St-Pierre is regarded as one of the best MMA fighters of all time. The following quote is GSP talking about his mindset going into a big fight...
"Your body can dictate your mind, so when I walk to a fight, a lot of times I am scared.
I’m scared to death. I have a lot of doubts about myself. I’m afraid to fail. I’m afraid to be humiliated in front of everybody.
But what happens, I act like it’s impossible for me to fail and that my victory is a certainty.
So as I am walking to the Octagon, and I act with confidence, my body takes over my mind and I become confident for real.
As I am walking, I see the change in my mind, and when I reach the Octagon, I am a different person. I am a very confident person."
