“The mind is weaker than the body; so just imagine what the body could do with the right mindset. Fears and self-doubt can stop an athlete in his or her tracks long before the body quits. Mental fitness is absolutely key to performance, and without it there can be no true optimal performance of any task or skill.” -Katie Chasey
Check out the rest of this awesome article The Athletic Mind, Part 1: The Role of Perception in Athletics for some ideas on how we can shift our mindset to be more positive as athletes.
