It’s amazing watching a sporting match with a really close finish, particularly when the stakes are high (like a final).
Both teams give it their absolute all and by the end of the match everyone on the field looks spent. Each player is barely hanging on from exhaustion.
But then when the final siren goes, the losing side usually collapses, and the winning side seems to find another energy reserve to celebrate.
How can this be, when everyone on the field was pushed to their max?
It makes you wonder how much of our energy management is influenced by our mindset and our circumstances.
