Calm down, we'll get there. To connect this great athletic feat to OPIN , we still need to know what happened AFTER the record was broken.
After an expectation of more than 70 years, of experts stating that the human physical limitation had been reached, Roger brazil mobile database breaks the 4-minute barrier and shows the world that it was possible.
That's it, Bannister had broken the psychological barrier. The mental limitation.
The result of this is that less than two months after his feat, another athlete - Australian John Landy - clocked a mile in 3:58.0 minutes.
The curious thing is that the same Landy at the beginning of that year, after recording times around 4:02 in 4 consecutive races, declared:
“ Honestly, I believe the 4-minute mile is beyond my capabilities. Two seconds may not seem like much, but to me it's like trying to walk through a cement wall ”.
(Frankly, I believe the 4-minute mile is beyond my capabilities. Two seconds may not sound like much, but to me it's like trying to walk through a cement wall.)
And the following year, another 3 athletes recorded times under 4 minutes, making it clear that the mental model was the only thing that separated them from the result.
Student-athlete Bannister did much more than set a new sports record. He proved that changing your mindset is key to success.
And this is where we finally connect this whole story to the current moment of Open Insurance.
OPIN represents more than just a technological shift . It is fundamentally a mindset shift, which puts all the power in the hands of the consumer.
Okay, impressive, but what does all this have to do with Open Insurance?
