In this episode of the Trends Property Insight Series, we sit down with David Niethe, a mental performance coach and author, to unpack the mindset behind making confident decisions, both at home and in life. Dave’s message is simple and grounded: start with identity, get specific about the future you’re building, and make your daily behaviour match it.
Dave shares how to work with the end in mind without getting trapped by limiting beliefs. He explains practical tools you can use immediately: create a clear “future snapshot,” build a visual anchor (yes, like a Trends Property vision board), and translate that into small, repeatable actions. When stress hits, such as on auction day, with a big offer, or during a renovation, he explains how using a short breathing pattern can help steady your state, so you can respond rather than react.
We talk about “permission”: giving yourself the okay to dream bigger, to set boundaries with partners and pros, and to lead your own project. Dave shows how alignment beats willpower, shared goals, honest conversations, and roles that reduce friction. He also reframes challenge as a gift: time under tension is how confidence is built, and momentum compounds like interest when intentions and attention stay congruent.
Whether you’re selling, buying, or reshaping the home you live in, this episode offers practical mindset shifts to make better choices with less noise: clarify the outcome, minimise the negative self-talk, and behave your way there, one calm, deliberate step at a time.
