Some people excel at finding problems. Leaders find solutions. As players, consistency, effort, and performance under pressure make you part of the solution.
Grow from the struggle. Tough teams believe in each other.
Never let a loss define your worth. On the road to a state championship, the 2012 State Title team lost their final regular season match. They didn't lose again.
Fill your mental toolbox:
- Your IDENTITY STATEMENT says, "This is who we are."
- Your PERFORMANCE STATEMENT adds, "this is how we play."
Jason Selk advises a personal mental highlight reel of plays to "call up" before practice and games. Include half a dozen plays to visualize success. Don't imagine it; reimagine it because you've done it.
Examples:
- You served into a desired zone or at a targeted player.
- See a perfect dig, set, spike.
- Recall a diving dig, pancake dig, or chicken wing save.
- See the perfect block into a kill.
- Visualize a great set to set up the perfect attack.
- Envision a great pass off a serve receive.
"Confidence comes from proven success." Believe.
