Overview
In this valuable course we will be discussing the dangers of striving for perfection.
An athletes mindset of trying to be perfect can lead to many mental issues. An athlete can set themselves up for failure in trying to be perfect. This course will teach them how to focus on progress. How to develop a plan that will lead to success.
In the first lesson we shed light on what is perfect. We will discuss why we start to feel like we have to be perfect. Trying to please others in not a good mindset to have. Pleasing yourself should always come first.
In lesson 2 we discuss failure. The only way to find the success we are looking for, as an athlete, is to fail forward. Failure can be our greatest teacher of the things that are critical to achieving success.
Lesson 3 is about progress. It is the progress each and every day that we have that gets us one step close to success. Feeling like you have achieved all that you desire comes through daily progress and having a plan to get there.
