Science Soul Success
Today we break down why doubt, fear, and uncertainty quietly sabotage performance when the pressure is on. We show how to stop giving those thoughts a voice and flip them into resolve, courage, and calm execution.
• eliminating doubt, fear, and uncertainty from performance talk
• allowing thoughts to come without letting them “rent space” in our head
• using doubt to strengthen resolve around a clear goal
• reframing fear as false evidence and choosing courage anyway
• treating uncertainty as normal life and a competitive advantage
• turning each obstacle into its opposite through deliberate language

Welcome And The Sweet Spot Promise
SPEAKER_00Welcome back to the sweet spot with Dr. Derek Sweet, a board certified psychiatrist specializing in sports and performance. In the sweet spot, we explore what it takes to stay steady and perform when the pressure is on and the moment matters. Stay tuned for Dr. Sweet's Take Action Tuesday.
Stop Giving Doubt A Voice
SPEAKER_01The one thing you don't want to do is let doubt, fear, and uncertainty stop you. These three things must be eliminated from your vocabulary. I'm not saying you can't think about them. The thoughts will come, but they don't get articulated, they don't get to rent space in your head, and they certainly don't come up in any conversations with anyone about anything concerning your performance.
Doubt Builds Resolve
SPEAKER_01So here's the deal. One, doubt. Doubt is a natural thing. We all doubt something, but the fact is, doubt is there to strengthen your resolve. Doubt should push you to be more firm and fixed around your goal.
Fear Is False Evidence
SPEAKER_01Fear. You know the saying, fear is nothing but false evidence appearing real. Fear doesn't really exist. In fact, the only thing that you really fear is the fear itself. How many times have you been afraid of something only to find out that you did awesome when you confronted it? That you were always stronger than the fear. Fear eats the soul.
Uncertainty As An Advantage
SPEAKER_01Uncertainty. That's life. Nothing's promised. That should give you assurance. When most people get all bogged down because oh, it's uncertain, I don't know. Look at you. You're calm. Because you know life is made up of the unknown. And that's where you excel. Because everybody got an equal chance. Because no one knows what's coming.
Flip The Script And Take Action
SPEAKER_01So be powerful, get rid of your doubt, get rid of your fear, get rid of your uncertainty. And certainly, if you have to do, if you've got to live with it, make up your friends, make up work for you, and turn them into the opposite. Be more resolved. Be more courageous. And be more certain about what you're going to do.
