A <strong>poor mental game<\/strong> has you locked up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But a more specific definition is necessary when discussing getting out of your own way&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the time, athletes who can&#8217;t &#8220;get out of your own way&#8221; try way too hard, force their game, think too much, or over analyze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"These_athletes_cant_let_go_and_perform_freely%E2%80%A6_Their_performance_looks\"><\/span>These athletes can&#8217;t let go and perform freely&#8230; Their performance looks:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Tight or controlled<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scared or tentative<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cautions or safe<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Afraid to make mistakes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Too mechanical<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve conducted a lot research with athletes on performing <strong>in the zone<\/strong>. These athletes say that performing freely and intuitively is one of the keys to <strong>peak performance<\/strong>. This is when you simply rely on their practice&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These athletes also say that they feel like observers (of their own performance) allowing their performance to just happen. As if they were performing on autopilot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, if you over think or over analyze your game, try to force it, or try to be too perfect with your performance, you are guilty of getting in your own way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the time, athletes get in their own way because of fear of failure or perfectionism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you get out of your own way, you allow yourself to play freely without expectations or pressure. You allow yourself to just do it and trust in your skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Two_mental_keys_can_help_you_get_out_of_your_own_way\"><\/span>Two mental keys can help you get out of your own way:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Understand the core issue that blocks your performance and cope better with this, such as fear of failure, fear of embarrassment, or perfectionism.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Learn how to let go and trust what you have trained yourself to do in practice.
