Self-talk comes in different forms, including IDENTITY (this is who I am) and PERFORMANCE (this is how I play).
Self-motivation challenges us. In The Meditations, Emperor Marcus Aurelius wrote this about a practical reality:
"At dawn, when you have trouble getting out of bed, tell yourself: “I have to go to work — as a human being. What do I have to complain of, if I’m going to do what I was born for — the things I was brought into the world to do? Or is this what I was created for? To huddle under the blankets and stay warm?”"
Success demands that we match our work to our dreams. It demands that we match our system to our goals. No guarantees...
"Control what you can control."
- Make the volleyball your friend in the offseason.
- Build platform skills with a teammate.
- Commit to regular workouts to build quickness and power.
- Resilience benefits from great self-talk.
