A proposito di questo titolo

 Winning the Mental WarGabriel Thai put in the blood, sweat, and tears for a grueling gap year, only to be told by his dream school that he wasn’t good enough to walk onto the team. Most athletes would have hung up the spikes right then. Instead, Gabriel doubled down on a belief in himself, sent a Hail Mary to the Ivy League, and took control of his career.In this conversation, Gabriel deconstructs the specific challenges he faced—from training in Vietnam to the "mental war" of proving he belongs in the Ivy League. We explore the relentless grind that took him from a "last-place" fear to becoming a two-time National Champion and a Division I standout at Brown University. This is a masterclass in letting passion drive you forward when the world tells you to quit.Inside the Episode:
  • The Duke Rejection: Gabriel opens up about the "devastating" moment he was cut and how he navigated the feeling that his hard work had been for nothing.

  • The Vietnam Gap Year: Why Gabriel credits his hardest, most "un-glamorous" training volume in Vietnam for building the mental floor he stands on today.
  • The "Delusional" Reset: How to "clear the mechanism" after a mistake by adopting a quiet, internal arrogance that you are the best person in the stadium.
  • Input vs. Outcome: A masterclass in shifting your focus from the scoreboard to the "boring" daily habits that guarantee long-term success.
  • The Side Quest: How Gabriel balances being a D1 athlete at Brown University with a passion for filmmaking and storytelling.
The "Simple Win" Philosophy:"You can’t guarantee the outcome of anything, but you can 100% guarantee what you put into your work. Be input-driven, not outcome-obsessed." — Gabriel ThaiConnect with Gabriel:
