What Professional Sport can teach us about Performing at Our Best
Heden Rossio, Largo do Duque de Cadaval 17 Fracção I, 1200-160 Lisboa,, Lisbon, PTšŖ An interactive evening with a professional tennis player on confidence, resilience, and the psychology of peak performance.
Life often feels like one long performance.
A presentation at work. A job interview. A difficult conversation. Starting something new. Trying again after a setback.
Many of us experience the same struggles: performance anxiety, losing motivation, impostor syndrome, perfectionism, fear of failure, overthinking, fear of judgement, self-doubt, or the pressure of expectations.
We know we're capable of more - but in the moments that matter most, we don't always show up as our best selves.
āSo how do people learn to stay calm under pressure, bounce back after failure, and keep moving forward despite uncertainty?
Surprisingly, some of the most powerful answers may come from sport. š
Athletes train their minds as intentionally as they train their bodies - from building resilience and emotional flexibility to developing discipline, presence, confidence, and the courage to step outside their comfort zones.
This is not a lecture about sports. š
It's a fun, thought-provoking, and highly interactive evening where we'll exchange ideas, reflect on real-life situations, and discover practical tools we can all apply in our personal and professional lives.
Together we'll explore questions like:
šŖ Can confidence be trained like a muscle?
š How do athletes recover after mistakes, setbacks, or failure?
š„ What's the difference between motivation and disciplineāand which one keeps us moving?
ā” Why do some people thrive under pressure while others freeze?
š± Why do we avoid discomfort, and what happens when we lean into it instead?
š§ How can we overcome impostor syndrome?
