There’s no sports without emotions. The athletes who deal with their emotions are the athletes who are more composed make less mistakes and have better results. So, i want to share with you 5 emotions every young athlete goes through in sports.
Understanding and mastering your emotions sets you apart from other athletes. While they feel pressure, you are composed, while they stutter you remain calm. It all starts with understanding your emotions and what you’re going through.
In this episode I break down 5 emotions every young athlete goes through in sports with the aim of helping you better understand them.
You may be wondering what emotions have to do with sport? But this is about the mental game. Your ability to understand your emotion is key when you run into difficulties in your athletic career.
Remember, knowing is not enough you must apply, willing is not enough you must do.
