Confidence Comes From Preparation: Sam Warburton

The Life Lessons Podcast

12-04-2024 • 5 mins

"One important key to success is self-confidence. An important key to self-confidence is preparation." - Arthur Ashe

So many of the elite performers I have spoken to over the last six years have exuded confidence. But what makes them so confident in their abilities?

The answer — preparation! Once the building blocks are in place, you can let go and surrender to what happens. That's when magic happens.

Hours of meticulous preparation allows top performers like Wales rugby legend Sam Warburton to walk into any situation with confidence. This he applied from a very young age, at school as well as on the pitch, and it has served him well throughout life.


My book Champion Thinking: How To Find Success Without Losing Yourself - is now on general release. Drawing on some of my favourite interviews over the last five years, I want to challenge our ideas about 'success', and where peace, joy and fulfilment are truly to be found.


'This book captures the magic of being in flow . . . Highly recommend' RONNIE O'SULLIVAN

'Entertaining and enlightening' MATTHEW SYED

'This book will challenge your thinking on what success truly is and will give you tools to "succeed" in life in the truest sense of the world. This is definitely not just another book about sport and those who happen to be good at it' -- GOLDIE SAYERS

'The intention behind this book is beautiful, and I highly recommend it' RUPERT SPIRA

'The best guide we have to what it means to be human' AMOL RAJAN
