What if I mess up, what if I drop the ball, what if I look like a moron, what if we lose, or worse yet, injured! These are questions that run through the minds of athletes at all levels form pee-wee to Pro's. These thoughts can become so powerful and take over a players mind creating self sabotage. Everyone wants to be at their physical and mental best while playing their sport, but this can be difficult to achieve without help.
No one wants to think negative things about themselves. We all want to be in peak condition as athletes. For instance, it is hard for a basketball player to be told they are too short or not fast enough. We begin to focus on those negative things. Being short can't be fixed, not everyone who plays basketball is seven foot. By learning how to play the game can make you invaluable even if you are short. If you are not fast enough, this can be fixed through both physical and mental workouts. First you need to figure out mentally why you can not run fast. It could be anything from a forgotten memory to a learned behavior. Maybe your dad always told you that you were too slow and to move faster. After a while you begin to feel this way and develop a mental block. This is a learned behavior and over coming this belief can be difficult alone.
A baseball player doesn't hit 5 homeruns in a row because he was lucky, he is focused. When you are not focused and in the "zone" it is difficult to perform at your best. Focus can be lost for many reasons. Maybe there is pressure from fans or parents, a loud negative person on the court or in the stands, or maybe you simply psyched yourself out before the game even started by worrying you would have a bad game. Identifying what makes you lose focus, and learning new tricks to keep focus, you can become unstoppable and not lucky, but focused.
Bang, the gun goes off, swimmers away. Swimming has some luck to it, but ultimately it is all about the skill, not who got a lucky call which it true of many other sports. If you can learn to improve your skill level mentally, the physical improvements will follow which will allow you to create your own luck. By learning visual and mental cues, you can teach your body how to be on point and improve your skill level. When your mind has powerful successes they become easier to recreate on the court during the game.
To truly be called and athlete you must love not only the game but yourself and your team. All of these things build a better, stronger, more valuable athlete. If you are constantly worrying about how you did in the game or how bad your team mate is then you are doing yourself and team a disservice. If you were always told how bad you are a something or how if you teammate would have just passed you the ball you could have won, you are allowing these experiences to take over the game. Once you learn how to deal with these feelings and memories, you will be an amazing athlete.
Sure you can work out at the gym for hours on end to improve your skills, or you can try to focus on something else during the game, but you have not really dealt with the issue. Hypnosis is one way of achieving all of these things and more. It will identify what skills you have hidden deep down and how to develop the new and old skills with a new positive energy, which replaces the negative. You will learn how to focus your energy on the game instead of an obnoxious fan or coach. All of these things are distractions and they can hinder your progress as an athlete. While under hypnosis your mind is more relaxed and open to suggestions, you will not longer have the feeling you are sabotaging yourself you will be an unstoppable athlete.
Sports, simply always be a fun, happy experience.You should not have to experience a worthless, anxious, or distracted feeling before you begin a game. Sure you can try other things but there is no reason to try those things when there is one good treatment for it. You know what works for you and your lifestyle, make your choice, just do it.
