Teaching Athletes to fill their mental filing cabinets

Teaching Athletes to Fill Their Mental Filing Cabinets
 
AAG is back with it’s first interview episode of 2025
 
And what better way to start than going inside the mind of someone who goes inside the athletes mind
 
Colin Booth and I have crossed paths recently in our Ice Hockey World
 
And he love and passion for his Athlete Neuro Performance is clear for everyone to see
 
Colin realised that X’s and O’s weren’t for him in the coaching space
 
And he wanted to figure out how one athlete could perform one task with ease yet another found it incredibly difficult
 
This work has led him to forming his own business MG1 Elite Performance
 
And now he gets to assists athletes improve their in game performance working on the finer details of their brain which returns an increase not only in their in play game but:
 
Resilience
Decision Making
Smarter Actions
Curiosity
 
And arguably the most valuable
 
It keeps them away from society pressures of the online social and gaming world which is having a profound negative affect on young people’s brains
 
I know you’ve missed these

Do you prefer playing on the edge?

Do you prefer Playing on the Edge?
 
This was something that was drilled into us at a young age
 
That to be up there with the best you have to play of edge
 
Playing safe within sport wasn’t an option to stand out and succeed
 
And if you think about it now everyone you likely look up to in life
 
In some way stands out because they dare to be different
 
To do things that the majority won’t do
 
In today’s Shaun Short episode on the Always Another Game Podcast I talk about my experience with playing on the edge
 
And how not only can that help you in sport
 
But within your business and your personal brand too
 
As it allows you to be your true authentic self and stand out from the crowd
 
 
Ready to push the boundaries a little bit
 
Go on I dare you
