A proposito di questo titolo

Nearly Failed Out to Top 3 in the US (Team USA High Jump) — Dontavious HillDontavious Hill is the definition of "persistence" as someone who engineered his own ascent. A 5-time All-American and 4-time SEC Silver Medalist at Auburn, and one of the Top 3 high jumpers in the United States. But his path was nearly cut short before it truly began.While breaking freshman records on the field, Dontavious was struggling in the classroom. He found himself crying over his textbooks, worried he wasn’t going to make it. In this episode, we explore the narrow margin between "failing out" and "flying high." We discuss the mental systems he used to study his way back into eligibility and the "Identity Shackle" that prevents most athletes from reaching elite heights.Inside the Episode:
  • The 1-Point Miracle: The story of the engineering exam that stood between Dontavious and his dreams.
  • The Identity Shackle: Why identifying as a "6-foot jumper" or a "failing student" is the most restrictive thing an athlete can do.
  • 4’8” to 7’5”: Deconstructing the physical and mental progression of a kid who rode the bench in every other sport because he "wasn't athletic."
  • The Professional "Void": What happens when the structure of Auburn University disappears and you have to navigate the life of a professional athlete as a one-man show.
  • Systems Over Motivation: How journaling, goal setting, and repetitive systems outperform "feeling good" every single time.
