FLOW PERFORMANCE

Marek is in the pursuit of mastering the mental game. As a mental performance consultant, Michael Gervais says: There are 3 things you can train; your mind, your body, and your craft. But too often we neglect how vital our mind is for our performance. Marek helps people train their minds for peak performance, whatever performance that may be! Growing up as an athlete, Marek thought he was technically decent enough, but his mental game was always lacking. 0:00 Introduction 2:30 - why sports psychology as a profession 5:52 - use fear and failure as a compass 9:35 - maladaptive vs adaptive perfectionism 13:50 - support vs challenge coaching style 16:55 - is proving someone wrong the wrong mentality? 18:51 - developing the why with athletes - mission, purpose and philosophy 23:27 - building on flow state to capitalize on the present moment 36:55 - rule of 3 on process to outcome 41:47 - ideal state of awareness and performance out of 10 46:45 - peak your mindfulness training 57:30 - being comfortable confronting your challenges 1:09:07 - staying neutral in a team setting and independently 1:16:40 - what is 2nd floor all about? He didn't have the resources to tackle the persistent mental barriers. He took it upon himself to get to the bottom of it and study the mind and performance, which led to two masters degrees in sport and exercise psychology.

Currently, Marek is working with a number of different individuals and teams from a variety of sports and other performance domains.

A collection of promo videos that were used to help promote the #TalktoJv episode with Marek Komar from Flow Performance. https://youtu.be/FkAxwpE-JTo The Buckets of Entrepreneurship comes up a lot now. This is where the saying came from. Let us know what you think of these promos below. JV Promo videos are popular right now across social platforms, so we wanted to make a playlist showing off some of the ones we have used in the past. Hopefully, it can spark an idea or help motivate you with your own content. Get out there and provide more value to your audience.

Marek Komar is all about helping people to be in the zone or as he calls it "Flow State". Listen in as him and JV discuss the drawback of only focusing on one sport at a time, and how this translates to business and personal goals. Should your kids focus on one sport? Should they focus on multiple sports? Studies have shown that early specialization is not helpful for motor development or psychological development. For example, if the whole year you are just playing hockey, you tend to burn out physically – which can result in chronic injuries; and even mental and emotional burn out can result, which steals focus. All great athletes played multiple sports growing up. Why does it help to move your focus elsewhere for a time and not just focus on one sport or goal? • Reducing the noise and detaching allows you to recover and then you are better able to come back, be focused and enjoy. • Multiple sports will help develop different motor skills that can overall help your performance. How does one manage to have the high-performance lifestyle without burning out? 1. Setting boundaries for yourself (setting limits for what you spend your time on) 2. Having a mindfulness practice to detach. Each episode of #TalktoJV we take the top clips of our guests and post them to our Guest Nuggets playlist. All about the raw value given by the guests. Tips, the economy, how to navigate university... videos will cover any and all topics. But what is important is the value that is offered.

Marek Komar is all about helping people to be in the zone, or as he calls it "flow state". Listen in as he and JV discuss the importance of mindfulness when choosing self-improvement options to pursue. We put so much on our plate without asking ourselves - do I really want to do this? The result: We are self-improving ourselves to death. Take a moment and just reflect on this question: Am I doing these things because want to do them? If the answer is yes, then keep pushing yourself and those limits. However, if you realize this is not conducive to your time and values – then take a moment to reflect on it. This is where mindfulness comes in - creating a moment and the space to reflect on what you really want to achieve.
