Inspirational Movie for Your Success: The Impossible Dream

A former athlete sent me this video clip. I actually had the chance to meet Roger a few years ago.

As the video discusses, it is all about self belief.

Has a bad day ever disrupted your practice?

Hey we all have bad days which can be due to a number of reasons ranging from problems with a significant other, performed poorly on a test in school, or even forgot to

However, when it is time to go to practice or a game you have to leave all of that behind you before you step onto the field or court. If you are struggling with getting pumped up to practice, just remember that you can always act your way into a feeling!

Even better, ask yourself the folllowing question and watch how quickly you can be more consistent at bringing your best game:

What are you saying to yourself when in times of high stress?

Nobody listens to you more than you listen to yourself.

When that moment of truth comes and you have to step up and perform just remember:

You can talk your way out of anything, but you can also talk your way in to anything just as well!
