Composure at 5* Level, What It Really Takes with Mohamed Ashraf Abdallah- #225
You can be experienced.
You can be ambitious.
You can be performing at a high level.
And still feel like you don’t belong there.
In this episode with Mohamed, we dive deep into something many driven riders quietly struggle with: The gap between external performance and internal belief.
We explore:
- Why high achievers often feel like imposters
- Why results don’t automatically create confidence
- The hidden pressure of being “serious” about your sport
- How fear of judgement impacts performance
- Why comparison keeps you stuck
- The difference between ambition and self-criticism
- How to build confidence that isn’t dependent on outcomes
If you’ve ever:
- Felt like everyone else is more talented
- Questioned whether you’re good enough for the level you’re riding
- Feared stepping up because “what if I mess it up?”
- Worked incredibly hard but still doubted yourself
This conversation will hit home. Because confidence isn’t something you earn from results. It’s something you build internally, deliberately.
