Shiffrin's secret

Yesterday's second slalom victory by Mikaela Shiffrin made me think, “what in the world makes her so good on skis?” and I came up with a few answers of my own:
  • She likes what she does and wants to excel in it. 
  • She masters exceptionally well all the technical elements she needs to succeed 
  • She trains and stays in shape to fuel her perfect technique 
  • All of her mind is into winning and leaves no room for distractions 
  • The sum of all the above is not just what she needs, it's largely in excess, so she has plenty of margin left
Now, that you know everything, go on the slopes and replicate it!
