The 3 Different Mindsets of Athletes!

The 3 Different Mindsets of Athletes!
I noticed through the years while working with countless athletes the discrepancy in the process. Despite having the same coaching, mentorship, or even program that can hold an athlete back, while one athlete could be accelerating, getting to the next level, always improving, having that mindset, and improving their game, the other athlete could be stuck in one spot, always second guessing themselves. And in this process, I know that it's all about the mindset and the behaviors, which is the driving force for success for an athlete, both on and off the court in the field. And it's about that process.
The three Ws that make a difference in an athlete's journey. The first one is obviously the what-if mindset. The second one is the What is mindset? And the third one is Whatever it takes mindset.
The first W is the what if mindset It's those negative scenarios you put in your mind, those negative thoughts. It's what if the college coach doesn't like me? What if I'm not playing well? What if I'm not good enough? It's always asking us, what if? When you're constantly asking yourself what if questions, you're hurting your progression, it's holding you back and you are not going to be able to get to the next level or perform at the highest level you can play for your growth. What I want our athletes, if they are at that, what if mindset, I would want them to shift it from obviously the what if, and to go to what is to get to that next level.
What is mindset is what's actually happening right now in their journey. What is the problem that you're struggling with? What is holding you back? All those are what is right now so that we can attack those and get you to the highest level possible, both playing at the higher level or improving your game. And that is a game changer for an athlete to get to that. What is, it's not really making it worse or better, it's really about living in the moment and facing it, it head-on.
Whatever it takes for this athlete, and we've seen numerous of them obviously it's an unwavering determination to succeed. No matter obviously what obstacle, what setback, what other people are saying, what it doesn't matter. They're going to do whatever it takes to get to the next level, wherever. What I see in these athletes is they attack their training,
They're tracking their mindset work, their development, their social, and their highlight videos. They're a student of the game. They're always wanting to improve and they're not going to let anyone get in the way of their goals because they're going to do whatever it takes.
So today, athletes, I'm asking you what w are you? And if you're wanting to always improve, maybe you're at that minds ,you're really second-guessing yourself. Get to that next level. Keep on pushing, keep on improving,a understand that there will be setbacks, there will be adversities. Just push through it and you will be able, if you're putting the work in and you're developing your mindset, your skillset, you will be able to play at the highest level you possibly could play at.
