Rise Higher

Sean O’Brien is one of Ireland’s most decorated rugby players. A four-time European Cup winner with Leinster, a Six Nations winner with Ireland and a British & Irish Lion, he is someone who pushed himself physically to succeed no matter what.

But such success did not just come through physical endurance and skills. It was, as he tells Enda McNulty on the final episode in the Rise Higher podcast series, as much to do with his mental game as anything.

Now coming to the twilight of his career with London-Irish, Sean O’Brien talks about the obstacles he had to overcome throughout the years and the choices we all make when we’re down.

“You can lie down on your back after getting a belt,” he says. “Or you can get back up. It’s definitely a choice. That’s what it comes down to. You can move forwards with your life to get better or you’ve a choice where you sit down and stay still. So make the choice to keep forging ahead and get yourself in a really good place.”
