In this week’s episode of Building Championship Mindsets, Dr. Amber Selking discusses the first of ten critical success drivers she will unpack throughout Season 12: the power of mindsets. A mindset is a protein pattern that gets wired into your brain based on what you think about. Dr. Selking talks about thoughts being mental reps for our brains. She shares how mindsets lead to success because over time our mindsets can shift the trajectory of our lives and even affect how organizations operate.

STANDOUT QUOTES

• “We need to be very mindful of the thoughts we are repping because they are building mindsets.” -Dr. Amber Selking [04:12]
• “Before we can get to winning and high-performance excellence, we have to stop losing. We have to stop doing the things that are causing us to be average or lose. It is not a mindset of what can’t we accomplish but what can we accomplish here.” -Dr. Amber Selking [07:33]
• 
  
• “Companies, organizations or individuals that have been stagnant and average for a while, they take it to the next level by breaking apart and smashing any limiting beliefs or mindsets and begin reconstructing new ways of thinking and believing in their own capability.” -Dr. Amber Selking [08:58]
• “When we stop repping those losing ways of thinking and start replacing them with championship ways of thinking, we can actually rewire our brain. This will help us show up as the best versions of ourselves and deliver the goodness and greatness inside of each of us.” -Dr. Amber Selking [10:17]
