More About Eddie O'Connor

Hello, 

My mission is to help overcome your obstacles to excellence. I imagine you are driven and have some high goals for yourself. But something gets in the way and holds you back. Maybe it is outside of you: people don't cooperate, decisions are unfair, you lack resources. Sometimes it just feels too hard and overwhelming. But if I am being honest with you, those are just circumstances. And all great achievements have tons of adversity along the way. Adversity that we can't avoid or get rid of. It creates these emotional blocks, an unwillingness to move forward through the pain. 

So you get stuck. You are frustrated with yourself. Teammates, coaches, family, bosses and coworkers may be disappointed as they depend on you and you certainly don't want to let them down. So the pressure to perform increases, and you get more distracted. You focus on mistakes, focused on avoiding them resulting in poor performance when it counts the most. Anxiety rises. So does sadness and distress. Your sport and job aren't fun anymore. Self-care (e.g., sleep, nutrition) suffers. And maybe, to protect yourself, you are starting to care less and just start avoiding things to not deal with them. Which makes your performance even worse ... and the downward spiral continues. 

Maybe you are losing games you should win, lost your starting position, got cut from the team. Maybe your performance reviews are poor, your supervisors criticize the quality of your work, or someone else got that promotion. You know you are better than this, but something is in the way of success. You are getting in your own way!

Let me help you solve these problems and free you up to achieve your potential.
