Kelly Holmes: Power of Belief
Simon sits down with double Olympic Champion Colonel Dame Kelly Holmes to explore whether self-belief is the key to success and what you can do to harness it in your own life.
The placebo effect and Roger Bannister鈥檚 4 minute mile are just two examples of the amazing power of belief.
In this episode of DTMTS, Simon Mundie talks to Colonel Dame Kelly Holmes about self-belief, and asks whether it is the single most important factor in success. Kelly was 14 when she decided she was going to be an Olympic champion, and that belief never wavered. She eventually won double gold in Athens 20 years later. So what did she learn about the power of belief during that epic journey to Olympic success?
She now helps disadvantaged young people get more belief in themselves too- and shares with Simon how she helps boost their belief- to achieve big things in their own lives. And the Colonel also has some useful thoughts on harnessing the power of belief you could put into practice in your life too.
