Listen "Your Scoreboard or Theirs? Lessons from Apolo Ohno"
Episode Synopsis
I’ll be honest — this episode got real.I break down a powerful quote from Olympic legend Apolo Ohno that shook me:“Every time we play someone else’s scoreboard, we trade a flicker of our life candle for applause that doesn’t last.”That hit deep.Because I’ve found myself chasing validation that didn’t even matter.In school.In sports.Even online.So in this episode, I dive into what really defines success... not for your friends, your followers, or your parents… but for you. Things I've learned from following the legend Apolo Ohno!What's on this episode:🔑 How to learn the “reward games” (like grades, likes, and status) — without letting them own you🔑 Why anchoring to your authentic self is the only path to long-term fulfillment🔑 How comparison is literally stealing your joy (been there)🔑 And how stepping away from the noise — even just for a day — can help you reconnect with what really mattersThis is the episode I wish I heard when I first started archery.So if you’ve ever felt behind, lost, or like you’re living someone else’s dream — this one’s for you.🎙️ Listen to Episode 37 of My Future Podcast: “Your Scoreboard or Theirs?”Let’s stop burning out for claps… and start building lives that mean something.Thank you for tuning in and your support, truly grateful! :) 🫶🕸️ CharityArrows.org🤝 Instagram @MeetCarsonNational Ranking: https://www.betweenends.com/nrs/RCMMedia Mentions:https://www.modernmom.com/earth-day-spotlight-meet-carson-with-charity-arrows/https://www.usarchery.org/article/rush-of-medals-for-u18-and-u21-on-the-final-day-of-the-usat-qualifier-series-openerhttps://www.usarchery.org/article/the-journey-continues-for-top-athletes-named-to-usa-archery-s-high-performance-programs Hosted on Acast.
