Breaking Through Mental Barriers: Howard Falco on Identity and Performance

Send us a text Howard Falco joins us to discuss how awareness—both internal and external—can transform your performance on the golf course and beyond. We explore how our subconscious mind often drives our actions, and how becoming aware of these hidden forces can dramatically improve our game and our lives. • Acceptance is the first step to improvement—recognizing your current abilities without judgment • Most amateurs avoid weaknesses while pros actively seek them out to transform them • Our identity and self-perception create invisible boundaries on our performance • True improvement requires changing how you fundamentally see yourself as a player • Curiosity rather than anger is key when facing challenges on the course • Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and other champions win through mindset, not just physical skill • The most successful players compete against history, not just other players • Asking yourself "Why not me?" can reveal hidden limitations to overcome • The "bounce back" statistics of tour players show how quickly they return to their identity • Self-awareness is potentially the next leap in human evolution Check out Howard's new book "Invincible: The Mindset of Infinite Potential and the Secret to Inevitable Success" available now.
