Being mentally tough is about:
Giving your best effort
Pushing through discomfort
Focusing on the task at hand
Blocking out distractions
Facing your fears
And staying poised under pressure
Coach Pat Summitt was as good of a coach (and leader) as we’ve ever seen in any sport. Her standards apply to every area of life and are equally impactful in business!
Six steps to entering the zone:
1. Quiet your mind
2. Relax your body
3. Be positive and confident
4. Focus on the task at hand
5. Give your best effort
6. Trust your instincts
Things you can control in games:
• Effort
• Attitude
• Self-talk
• Body language
• Attention
• Execution
Things you can’t control in games:
• Winning
• Your opponent
• Refs
• Fans
• Weather
• The past/future
To play your best, focus only on what you can control.
If you truly want to succeed and be happy as an athlete, you need to put your team first. Caring only about your own success will ultimately come back to hurt you.
