hello to all of you have tasks and

your belts I hope you are not

been too shaken by his small flights

I do not bring you a solution for

remove the little monkey the

procrastination though hall would calm

well I think I’m here for you

talk about more potential

precisely the management of the potential

and the performance through my

experience i will explain to you

how I managed to reach my

goal to become champion of

world of aerobatics from the moment

I stopped wanting to be

absolutely the idea is not

to make you an ace of mans I you

reassures

on the other hand I think that here you have

all been at least confronted once

important deadlines what

be it a contest a contest

project no matter

and finally what can apply

in the cockpit of an aerobatic plane or

even a fighter

well that can apply to

daily the images that you saw in

introduction it dates from the last

world aerobatic championship that took

held in France in a châteauroux

world championship of aerobatics it’s

goes on how does it last a dozen

days there are about sixty

competitors from different countries and

during these ten days we will perform

between three and four flights

so it’s not a lot knowing that these

flights that’s it lasts a dozen

minutes ten minutes so

finally we spend a lot of time

wait so really has to be managed

latent between the flights and be able

on ten minutes really the state do

ultra concentrated a flight so it’s a

program a program it’s a dozen

of figures that we will have to realize

little bit like figure skating

his ranks figures codified there one has

a little example on the screen and we’re going

have to do it to the degree

you’ve seen it’s pretty accurate the

paths

we will be judged by judges

professional and like to skate

artistic we will have to move in

a volume we our volume it’s a box

it is a cube of 1 km side of which

we must avoid going out otherwise we are

penalized we will evolve in there

with real formulas a desert

these planes that can reach

up to 400 km time for the little one

calculation at 400 km hour the 1 km indeed

in six seconds which means that in

big we are really in the grip of

very fast decision and more

you could see the trajectories are

very

tight which means we’re going

take a lot of factors from

loads a dozen objects at most

that is to say, ten times the weight of

our body is all that in

trying to have the most driving

precious you have understood that in

more physical abilities at the level

cognitive we are really in the

restitution of technical movements

precise fast that need to be done

perfectly

we’re going to vulgarize to imagine a

tennis game a tennis match but

in four games only four games

it’s not very much on the other hand

we add a rule is that you do not

must theoretically lose any ball

to hope to win

the opponent bah that it uses

perfectly how is a

aerobatic competition his list

exactly how much

scores the points differences can

to be tight to be able to hope

to reach the podium

that’s why we say on average

takes between 8 and 10 years of practice to

high level in this sport to hope

take away a title and that’s what puts in

average the drivers to win it

for my part I managed to win

this world champion title at my

first participation in a

championship this championship which

had never been done gold how I

I ‘ll explain it to you

tell a little bit about my story and I

think that eventually it does not hurt

of you who will find yourself

little backtracking we come back to

beginning of the 2015 season is my

second season high level

in aerobatics I come out of a first

season that is promising continues the

results and my experience and so

So you have to know that in aerobatics at

level of preparation it’s except

technical preparation flights

after that it’s a little bit different

I tell myself we are like in a sport

high level so I’m going to prepare myself

as a high level athlete so I

add physical preparation

technical preparation of course the

trainings trainings the flights and a little

initiation is the preparation

mental can not be enough we’ll see

thereafter and so I approach my

first deadline which the championship

of France with these conditions the

championship of France is certainly a

national championship but that’s

surely one of the most raised in the world

both the level in France in this

discipline is high

when I land I’m not

necessarily the driver who has the most

from experience there are already old

briscards in the team

by cons surely the one that was

best prepared for this deadline

and that’s my awareness and in my

head when I arrive I say to myself

what made the connection that

know all it takes that

I make sure I win I do not have the

right to lose

I think we all knew these little

things at times face

deadlines on which we were expected

these little injunction that

usually we are mostly added

a good deal of pressure before

before doing the exam is rarely that

does not help us actually the result

I’ll let you guess it’s not at all

the one I was waiting for I’m doing a

third place it’s a result that

is honorable but personally me

this competition is really a

failure

I miss but fly I am

stressed nervous I finish the week

I am completely exhausted

morally and nervously month for me

it’s really a depression

at that moment the sensation that I

it’s an American sportsman who has

describes very well who’s called nice to

beautiful is a football player

professional who says you have

saved all year for you

buy the car of your dreams you

arrive at the dealership and

time to pay you just do not have the

pin code of your credit card what is it

a little bit about me at that moment and I

two options I see two options I’m

I say bah stop the competition because

that I may not be made for that

I was not a competitor or otherwise

second option bah I’m going until

end of my dreams to the end of my

dream I hang on

on the other hand out of question to revive

a competition in his talents I

will choose the second option and I

think it was the right one

so a few weeks go by and

I approach the preparation of

world championships and this championship

really in another state of mind

much more focused eventually on

what I have to accomplish ie

but flight on the present on the task

to accomplish against really

detached from the stake I forget the

result I finally forget that dream

to become world champion I say to myself

I really focused on my flights and

then we will see the idea

it’s really about keeping this mindset

attack the competition it’s really

my goal is so I approach this

championship under first championships

of the world in which I participate in this

mindset I’m just reminding you of the

contests at this moment there I am

almost unknown to the world of aerobatics

apart from the national level I am

unknown judges

it’s still a sport judged anyway and

yet I will do my first flight

and there is a click

I win first program in a

world championship first flight and well

I win the program so I take

the head of the overall standings ahead

everyone like that is who he

hello except at that moment

I am really detached from the year

I’m really happy with my

performance but detached from the stakes

result I say to myself I keep this state

of mind and then we’ll see well and

rebelote second program and I

repeat the same thing I win this

program which allows me to take

a considerable lead in the ranking

general in parallel with

that moment down I’m starting to be

a little bit caught up by the challenge we have

nice to say it’s good we take it hen

we see what is happening

is actually a third flight that

is going to be a bit more complicated

steals a little more difficult but I

hangs on and keeps me in front

and there we come to wash the fourth

program then by cons there I am

fully caught up in the stakes

I guarantee you that the night before

almost white why because at

that moment I’m trying to

account for the performance that I

am about to realize as

just on the point ie I

extract from the present the task to

accomplish know how to close your most

properly possible and I’m already in

to project myself into the future

hypothetical and the whore the machine to

cogitate to sow on the move

finally it’s the weather that goes into

decide otherwise

the test not take place because of the

bad weather so well it’s the test

ends the world championships get

finish and so balas and the result I

wins this title the dream comes true

here we go

in addition it was at home in France

this is a beautiful event is good

when we are on the podium we are

we are really happy

accomplished job

what made the difference

finally in relation to the

previous competition

that’s what I’m going to explain it’s to

to say that I actually broke away from

the stakes detach from the result

on the other hand I am really focused

on the task at least at

beginning after there is a moment where like

I tell you there is still

caught up a bit by the stake and it’s this

that made the difference

me when I describe it I say to myself

finally I managed to let go

to let go of my competition

let go that what it is and in

what can it affect us all in

our daily

finally when we look at our

society is not so far away as

of an aerobatics world championship or

even a championship anyway we are

rated we are rated we evaluated according to

goals to be achieved

we often compare to each other

and finally since very small since

the youngest age one is modeled for

evaluate in an ultra medium

competitive

I’m not telling you that the

competition it’s not good I think

it can have some virtues

including pulling a group towards the

up and like any system when

it’s excessive it can become harmful

why because it’s anxiety and

incapacitating and finally instead of

dedicate on the task his work to

accomplish and tell yourself that the result

it will ultimately be a consequence

of the work we are going to do on the moment

present and ben becomes omnibulated by the

Note the result and we know the one

wants the rating the rating is

finally and ben have already we are

already being projected into this

that can happen

scenarios is what makes that at the moment

to act at the time of these where we go

decide what will happen

well then we begin to cogitate it is

in these injunctions self-judge

self assess what I’m good at

to do and what I’m going to do wrong as well

right away all you need for

block its potential and its

skills and finally it’s like

that sometimes being the best

prepared to deal with an exam

contest or even no matter and well one

miss next we miss this

review this contest this very project of the

girl we want to seduce finally here

it’s full of examples and so

that’s where this notion of

let go

so actually the pros of the

personal development would say it’s a

vast subject it’s not that what I’m going

you actually explain me I ‘m going

just focus on the part

we will say in action that we can

finally take a step back

taken also when acting finally

let go and I’ll start with

to say that this is not because

Attention must not be mistaken release

taken it’s not passivity it’s

no basicity I’m not trying

to tell you

I arrive at my world championships

I have arms a little ballan good bah

I’m going to let go

not at all we are not we are

not in there already a prerequisite to

it’s all about being

you have to be focus or be invested

must be what we do

to say if we are not in the action already

it’s not good the English will say a

committed committed term I would say

that it’s to be for doing and not doing

to be that it is already the base and

then we will introduce a notion a

notion of acceptance is to accept

we can not control everything

we can not necessarily all

mastered in his field or in

the occurrence when I’m in a

aerobatic championship and the orders of

passage a draw I do not

control not the chance I can not

master the time that will make the

next day I can adapt

eventually I can know a

little weather but after that I’m

can not control my stress either

facing important deadlines

it is normal to have stress is

can not do against against

accept stress a gift this is our

organism that prepare us to act if

we channel well it’s rather something

positive thing that something that

will we sink finally this happens to

the third notion which is the

detachment learn to detach

of the outcome of the judgment of

his own judgment

the idea is really to leave free

course especially and ben to all his

skills and its automatisms

many athletes will talk to you

when they achieved a performance

they will say ah I felt good

I had the good feelings I was

in the zone were in the fluidity

fluidity performance here is full

of terms that’s it finally that having

confidence in his abilities

concretely me when I’m in front

from you there I am already in a

some form of letting go

that is, I prepared I

prepared my presentation

I trained in front of my ice cream

hundreds of times late especially with

my coach didier but here now here

present me i’m just focusing

on the message that I’m trying to you

to get rid of you to pass

at best and I accept that among you

in the room there may be people who

have not joined any of that j

but that I do not control it for you

in general

finally what is it when you

have to face a deadline

important

where to go to see the action of

decisions and well already there is a

precept to all this is to

prepare I’m not trying to get you

say go ahead the flower to the rifle a

world championship I did not go there

without having flown without having prepared

it’s something that one subject that

I do not know if I go there

hands in the pockets it does not work

that we forget about a

times when acting moment of being of

carry out his action and well it’s

to be convinced that finally the

final result is to detach

but it is that what will count is

the quality of the work we are going to provide

on the moment and nothing more and that

falls well because you are

trained on it not on the rest

so you really have to stay focused

on it

management also management

also allows some form of

let go

when working with a team

who is well trained well trained

it’s accepting accepting that you do not

may not have control

on everyone else it’s normal otherwise

you risk curbing the potential

overall group

finally it’s more acting like a leader

of orchestrating a conductor who is going

have his musicians every musician

that’s exactly what he has to play

and you’re doing that way you go

to be able to step back finally

come back the main task that is

to grant the whole to grant your

orchestra of him the idea but also

to have the necessary perspective for

against there make the right decisions

at the right time and not have your head in

the wall

I will not dwell on the subject of

leadership and finally let go of

leadership and management because

it’s a vast subject also I think

that we could dedicate an edition

whole tedx on it but just for

to tell you that eventually we can

introduce these concepts to different

levels

and then as we say charity well

ordered it starts with itself

because these changes they will come

not others who will come from you

it’s you who will want to evolve and

like any evolution there it requires

of training that asks for

training and elsewhere it’s

paradoxical is to train oneself to

detach finally is to do

to learn how to get rid of

thing why because it’s like

everything else is like a skill

low starting physics when done

we have trouble and then more paper that

becomes very natural to us our

brain as I told you and not

model to work like that since

when you’re young, you’re really used to

work rather so

competitive so to evolve

it will take a little bit of training

then at first what seems difficult

will become more and more natural for

that there is a whole lot of practice

of exercises know the maybe the

meditation mental preparation

it’s not for nothing that now the

most top athletes and

have recourse we find even in the

business world in the big

companies have made more and more

appeal to mental trainers for

prepare people even within

the army we use what are called

potential optimization techniques

and it does not necessarily mean that the

pilots the commandos the controllers

finally here it is techniques that

are marked by high level sport

they are applied to different domains

and it works all that to bounce

and conclude on the beginning sentence where

I told you good I became

world champion from the moment

where I stopped wanting to be

absolutely I think you have

understood the message

finally I hope this is the idea this is

not to have no objective well at

opposite

it’s about tackling having all the

good strategies finally for

to be able to reach it

actually this notion of taking

recoil take letting go on

that’s part of it and so he now

it may be time for you too

and good to stop wanting absolutely

to get at all costs what you want

to increase your chances of seeing her

Thank you

[Applause]
