SAVE ✍️ ❌ DON’T MAKE THESE 4 MISTAKES WHEN TRYING TO BUILD YOUR CONFIDENCE 👇
Mistake #1 - Comparing Yourself To Others
This will never end well for you. You’ll constantly be focused on the strengths of others, versus the strengths of yourself.
And all this will cause you to do is lack even more confidence.
Solution #1 - Get Clear On Your Strengths
Instead, get clear on your strengths in performance. Use role models, or other athletes who are already successful, as a way to LEARN the skill.
Mistake #2 - Listening To People Who Aren’t True Experts
This is the quickest way to derail yourself. Why would you ever take advice from someone who isn’t a true expert?
A true expert is someone who has REAL results working with athletes at the level you want to get to (results talk...)
Solution #2 - Vet Your Experts
Every expert you work with, you must “vet,” meaning that you must understand WHAT they know, but more importantly the RESULTS they’ve gotten.
Mistake #3 - Focusing On Your Fears
It’s important to attack your fears, but you can’t let them consume you.
Solution #3 - Find Solutions To Your Fears
Once you understand your fears, you must immediately find solutions to them.
Understand the skills you must work on in order to conquer your fears.
Every fear can be conquered by building skills.
Mistake #4 - Going Through The Motion In Practice
Your practices transfer directly to your games; you’ve heard it before, but how you practice is how you play.
Solution #4 - Purpose And Intensity
You must go into every practice with a purpose (skill to work on) and intensity (level of work rate). And every day you must work with this purpose and intensity.
This is the one of the most common patterns that the world’s best athletes follow, so why wouldn’t you?
