South African Rugby World Cup-winning captain Siya Kolisi – finding your 'why'
Podcast: Mind Set WinPublished On: Tue Oct 10 2023
Description: “You have to know why you’re doing something, and the ‘why’ has to be bigger than the doubt you have about yourself.” In this powerful episode of Mind Set Win, Springboks captain Siya Kolisi shares the mentality that's helped him achieve and establish his status as a sporting icon. The 2019 Rugby World Cup winner explains his ‘why’ in life, and how he’s continuously used it to push himself not just on the field, but also to create a positive impact in his community. In line with this theme, the exercise from hosts Cédric Dumont and York-Peter Klöppel focuses on how to find your own ‘why’ in life and utilise it as a source of energy for when you need it most. To help you establish your ‘why’, York suggests this technique: 1. When watching the news, or thinking about your job at the end of the day, ask yourself what resonated with you the most? What excited you the most? What carried the most meaning?2. Keep a note of it! It doesn’t matter how or where, whether it's in a folder on your phone, on your fridge, or in your notebook, all that matters is that you collect them somewhere. 3. When you’re having a down day or a difficult time, look at the note to remind yourself what your ‘why’ is, the bigger picture behind your actions and tasks.Chapters:1. Siya Kolisi interview2.
