A Confident Self Image
-
Confidence is faith in a particular skill, optimism is a general faith in your abilities
Pro golfer kept notebook of all the good shots he kept, I'll make a note of every strong combo or highlight I make in Smash and write positive affirmations daily
There's no benefit in engraining negative experiences into your subconscious, focus on the successes instead to get the champion's mind
-
Be very confident in yourself, golf example of not missing shots from being overconfident but from being underconfident
-

-
Respecting Your Talent
-
-
Respect yourself, don't put limits on yourself, you can go farther than you think you can currently
-
Evaluting Yourself
Don't evaluate yourself midgame, it'll trigger the conscious mind to take over
-
Going Through Fire
-
Refuse to replay failures in your mind, visualize success instead
-
-
Perfectionism is harmful
People won't remember the times you fail, but the times you succeed
It's not about if you get hit, because you problably will, it's about how many times you can get hit and keep moving forward
Working Hard, Working Smart

Religious values by coaches are common, faith is a common element among them
The most important thing is that you give your best effort and meet your standards, not necessarily winning
