Everyone fails. Reset and overcome.
A pitcher allows a home run. That play is over.
A quarterback throws an interception or fumbles. The next drive awaits.
Don't allow a hitting error or a shanked ball to cause a spiral of errors.
Control what we can control. Control our response to adversity. Mental toughness means the ability to respond well to adversity. Feeling sorry for ourselves accomplishes nothing.
In 2021 Melrose trailed 3-10 in the fifth set of the sectional finals. They fought off three match points amidst a 13-4 closing run.
Melrose fell to 3-10 before it’s epic rally to victory. Here’s video from Ralph Labella of the comeback fists of fury starting with Melrose trailing 11-14.
Success starts with the ability to reset and to play harder for longer, regardless of the situation.
