I havent been here for a while. I dont just mean myspace, I mean in myself. For the last year, Ive been here in body but not really in spirit and certainly not in mind. What is it that makes us all lose focus?

Thats played its part in my racing. I havent been riding all that long and Ive adopted a retiring attitude. I've managed to spend the last season in 'off' mode: kind of learning the tracks and getting very comfortable, but not much more than that. I've wondered if I have lost the drive I once had, that self belief. So many things I've read have perked me up. I've read about other racers who have believed in themselves despite what they have seen, who have had others believe in them, who have come across great difficulty and still managed to overcome it and perform. 

Performance has been something I am very capable of achieving. Exactly what do I want or need that will change that? How selfish can my subconcious be!? In fact, I don't even think that's the question. The question is, what am I going to do to perform. I spend so much time worrying about things that people have told me to do or not to do. I think I should be more selfish. I think I should actually feed my subconscious. That's what I have neglected.

So, to get to the bottom of it. Focus. Preparation. Confidence. I will achieve what I want to. I have already achieved a great deal. I need to do a lot more.

But mainly Focus.
