Practice Mindset VS Performance Mindset. Change your game instantly!

In this video I'm going over an extremely important and much overlooked topic. Practice mindset vs performance mindset.
In practice mindset we are analyzing our game, looking at our technique perhaps. Doing drills, working on systems etc etc.
In performance mindset it's time to let all that analyzing go and put your skills to the test. This is when you trust your skills and let them come out naturally without analyzing things any longer.
This video can be a total game changer for you!
Enjoy!!

My best feeling ever playing pool happened so long ago I’m not positive about the year but sometime around 2001. I was in the Army stationed in Japan and was playing pool at the same place I always play when 4 or 5 guys walked in. I recognized one of them since I had played him before. He was a very good player and he wound up winning. One of the guys he came in with comes on over and asks if I want to play some nine ball and of course I say yes. As soon as we start playing I can tell that this guy is a really good player. I wind up beating him 3 sets of races to 7 in a row. The most games he won in any set was 4. I played the best I had ever played. I would be down on a shot and say to myself I know I’m going to miss because I can’t play this good for so long so I’m bound to miss. But I was drilling everything in the pocket with great position. The next night I went there again and as soon as I walked in a friend of mine who I often played and who wasn’t even there the night before came up to me and asked me if I knew who I had beaten the night before. I told him I had no idea, that he was just a guy who asked me to play. He informed me that the guy was a great player and was a professional pool player. That made me feel kind of proud but I didn’t give it much thought afterwards. About a month or two later I walk into the same pool hall as I always do and on the counter is a copy of a Japanese Billiard Digest. The player on the cover was the guy I had beat. He was on the cover because he had just won the Japan Open.

(one of) My favorite moments happened recently when I beat a semi-pro (then almost beat him again). Another great moment was when I was invited to play at a bar full of upper-intermediate players and I won 5 games in a row. I didn't beat every player, but I held my own. Your videos are very much appreciated, many thanks!

I often use some mental trickery on myself. I used to go and practice, play some drills and then shoot some balls and maybe finish playing somebody and I'd find i would play ok then start to feel good and then after an hour or two i would start going off the boil and playing not as good and i would remember that feeling when i go to the practice next time. Now i practice and when I'm at the point of playing well i would stay a little while with my warned up arm and then i stop playing, pack up and go home. That way when i come back to the table for my next session i think i may play well as last time i was on the table i was playing well and not thinking of my game which was dropping off if id stayed too long. Another thing i do and try to get other people to do is to find something positive when you play a poor shot. If you hit a ball too hard and end up out of position instead of thinking i played a bad shot and being negative i would think, well at least i have a better angle to get to my next ball or maybe that its good that im not stuck on the rail. I find these mind tricks really do help getting into the proper mindset and any positive edge is a good edge. This is one of your best videos Neils and you didn't hit a single ball. Im not brilliant and im getting on a bit but i do stream on fb for my friends and family back in the uk and hoping to get more subs on yt so i can Livestream here aswell, then everyone can pick my game to pieces and advise me on some points or just rag me, i have a thick skin now so i can take it so if anyone can help out with the subs, please do. Thanks for a great and informative video and may you do many many more. Thanks. P

My best feeling was a period of about 2 or 3 years where I never second guessed, never jumped up on my shot, and always planned ahead. I say never, but obviously that's not the case... if I could mirror anyone's game at the time (early 2000's) it would be Johnny Archer. He brought a fresh show of sound mechanics and flow state execution to the pool world. You have to tell yourself never though. That's almost the entire battle. Never. Ever. Ever. When doubt creeps in, you lose.

My favorite memory was a couple weeks ago with a 20-30 player handicap tournament where I went to the 1 loss side in my first match and didn't look back. Was in a groove. Fought back to win a good 7+ matches in a row to get a 1st/2nd place split finish. Was bummed I couldn't play the player that didn't have any losses to try and take the whole tournament instead of having to settle for a 1st/2nd split due to time constraints. Take it each ball, each rack, each set at a time. Forget about what happened in past.

I am a HUGE Fan of your videos. In this video, you have mentioned about using our mistakes competition as feedback for things we need to work on in practice. I saw a saying about Success / Perfection, and I've tweaked it a bit to this. "It is not possible to succeed without Failure" and my backup is "You can never fail, you only succeed / win or you learn."

I read a comment somewhere that you should practice as if it’s a tournament, and play a tournament as if it’s practice. I kind of like that. It speaks to the seriousness and wouldn’t work so well if one already did what you say here because you already have flipped it correctly. It’s all “serious” but also fun. That’s the weird thing. Serious but playful. That said, I like to practice shots and have many many things to work on, but also like to play a game of ten ball for example with myself, and when I really blow a shot or position after a shot I set it up again and again until I get it and then move on.

Hi Niels, also on this subject, you should not let anything bother you. At one time I couldn't have anything in my pockets. Then I stopped letting that or anything else bother me. And the way that I did it was to practice with that thing that was bothering me . And that one thing helped solve that problem, and I started playing better. Your advice and instruction are gospel. Thank you.

Niels makes perfect sense. Even when I'm in tournaments I still have that mind set of, is my stance right or my stroke straight its starts to take a toll on my shot making an position. Still in practice mode when I need to trust my practicing routines an forget about it an just shoot. Best advice!!!!

Had a favorite moment about a week ago. I was winning game after game with some okay guy, dollar coin-ops in a bar, and he was a league player (I'm just Joe Shmoe) Next, a really terrible player decided to try me, and I broke the 8-ball right in . . . so it being a quick game, I said, wanna play 9-ball? He said he didn't know how, so i said I'd teach him in 2 minutes, and I racked them with the 10 in the center, since the 8 was gone. Snapped the 10 right in on the break! "Again?" I asked, sure... this time the 11 in the middle, and Bang! I sunk IT on the break! People watching jaws to the floor. Next I racked another.. 14 in the middle as a few more balls had dropped. Didn't get it in that break, but got down to the last ball with the guy and he's just banking at it... Next a better dude played me about 5 games and I only won one.

Fantastic info as always. You just saved me about two months of playing weekly tournaments to get into the right mindset again. How much time would you put for switching cues? Like if you go from a stiffer maple shaft to a low deflection shaft? Would it be more fine tuning or intensive? I think intensive I used to switch cues a lot which messed my progress up 😂

Hi Niels... wanted to hear your thoughts on something subtle I do which helps me with critical shots. I find that if I exhale and hold a few seconds before I take my shot, it helps me "relax" and helps not feel tightness on the neck... Is this something you do? Or do without thinking? Or do you even notice if you are exhaling/inhaling at the moment you take the shot? Thanks!
