4 important steps for mental prep 1️⃣ ???? expectations 2️⃣ U. R. U. 3️⃣✔️ mental workouts 4️⃣ go to move
This is important not just for athletes but for anyone. When you have expectations about an upcoming task it takes you out of that moment you are currently in. And missing. Don’t miss out on lunch, don’t miss out on that phone call with a friend. Don’t miss out because you are already on the court. Yes take the time to meditate and visualize, but after that. BE IN THE MOMENT ALL DAY. That’s your goal. And if you aren’t. You need to plan your day so that you care more about each moment. That tells me you aren’t challenging yourself enough throughout the day if you’ve spent 8 hours worrying about an upcoming event. Then damn, those last 8 hours were pretty boring... add some spice to your life. Second, you are YOU!!!! Just because a veteran that you look up to can walk in and take 4 shots and be ready to go, doesn’t mean you can. On the flip side just because Steve shits his pants before games and takes a yoga class and puts up 500 shots doesn’t mean you have to do that. You are you. Don’t be hard if you aren’t hard, be nerdy if you’re nerdy, listen to classical music if that’s what you like. Be you. And then text me and say JEREMY, I WAS MYSELF TODAY. As I said last episode have more and more reps be MENTAL REPS. Where something is on the line. And have a GO TO MOVE. Something that will make you comfortable. Trust me it will. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
