🔥The Right Perspective

A key aspect of the psychological aspect of performance is your perspective

You have to believe you are in control of the outcome

If you shift blame: “the umpire was squeezing me!” “The mound was trash bro!” “Our fielding is a joke”

You reduce your performance

Because now you’re a victim, unable to succeed against circumstances out of your control

Which results in self pity, and a negative attitude of helplessness

The foundation for success: positive expectations and gratefulness for the opportunity

That’s what unlocks an ownership mentality that takes responsibility for ALL outcomes, allowing the brain 🧠 to focus on solutions and execution, which drastically raises performance!
