I found thes quotes really spoke to me today. I've been thinking about exactly what he is talking about. How much am I limiting myself by my own assumptions and I am slow and won't get faster? Am I living up to my physical potential and if not, it is my own head that is getting in the way?

From an interview with Anton Krupicka :

"I came to realize that—whether we can control it or not—our ability to perform up to our physiological potential in a race is determined by whether or not we truly psychologically believe that what we are attempting is realistic."

"If you can instead approach your running with true confidence you’ll have a much better chance of performing up to your physiological ability."

Rest of the interview here.
