Success isn’t just about skill. It’s about how you think, respond to pressure, and bounce back from failure. The mindset behind your actions often matters as much, if not more, than the actions themselves. That’s why Bigger Brains created Developing a High-Performance Mindset, a transformative new course designed to help professionals build the mental tools needed to thrive in challenging environments, handle setbacks with resilience, and confidently show up in every aspect of their work. If you’ve ever struggled with self-doubt, procrastination, fear of failure, or the feeling that you’re not good enough despite evidence to the contrary, this course offers the strategies and insights to help you rewrite that inner narrative.
In this course, you’ll start by identifying the five types of imposter thoughts that can hold you back and contrast the winner effect with the loser effect to understand how small victories or defeats can shape your confidence. You’ll learn to recognize and unpack key fears that silently influence your behavior, then reframe your experiences to build clarity and control. You’ll list the steps in the T-minus-3 technique to interrupt negative thought spirals before they take root and distinguish between process and outcome goals to keep your motivation steady. You’ll examine the three types of failure and how each impacts your growth, and apply techniques like the OHIO principle and the Pomodoro method to structure your daily routine for focus and momentum. You’ll discover how to highlight your accomplishments to yourself and others without feeling boastful and explore how to redirect neural pathways to develop healthier, more empowering thought patterns. You’ll also learn practical ways to modify your thinking over time and use power poses to lower fear and create a more substantial, more positive presence in high-stakes moments.
