TIM ASKS: “My son is an MMA fighter. He panics when things don’t go as planned. This leads to a loss of focus and eventually a loss of confidence. Things happen fast in this sport and can’t afford to lose focus and confidence for any reason. How can he improve his mental toughness for when things don’t go as planned?”
