How to Practice and Apply Your Mental Game

Apply Mental Game

Unfortunately, many athletes view sports psychology as a quick fix for helping them get out of a slump or back on track with their performance. If you look at mental training as a quick fix, you won’t realize your potential with a strong mental game. Your mental game must be cultivated and tweaked every day just like you do with your physical game.

I recently gave a sports psychology webinar to Peaksports Network members about a very important topic in my work: How to practice the mental game and apply to your performance. You can watch the first 10 minutes of the webinar minutes on my YouTube Channel.

Today I’d like to discuss how you can better learn and apply the mental game…

Helping my athletes apply what they learn in our mental coaching sessions is an everyday challenge. Most athletes understand the strategies I teach to stay focused, be proactive with confidence, and stay calm after mistakes, but how can they practice theses strategies so they can apply them easily to competition? I find a huge gap between the conceptual knowledge and an athlete’s ability to use it in practice and competition.

So in this month’s Sports Psychology Insights Magazine, I’ll discuss two areas to help you get the most out of mental training:

  1. How to practice mental game strategies you learn from me
  2. How to apply mental game strategies to competition

The Confident Athlete

The Confident Athlete Audio

“The Confident Athlete” consists of 2 audio programs that include 14 days of confidence fueling exercises and a simple to follow workbook that guides you through the 14 days, helps you apply the strategies, and customizes the exercises to your personal needs.

Let me help you put a stop to the confidence leak. You can learn to have greater levels of confidence in competition than you do in practice by identifying the specific ways you undermine your own confidence and how to convert your practice confidence into COMPETITIVE CONFIDENCE.

“The Confident Athlete” is a ground-breaking system to teach you how to think like a champion and have ultimate self-confidence every time you step on the playing field, court, track, or course. The confident athletes was developed for any athlete – junior to professional –that wants to gain confidence. However, coaches and sports parents can learn how to teach others to perform with ultimate confidence. Use my program if you want to bust a slump or just wanting higher or more consistent levels of self-confidence.
