Parents overcoaching is one of the biggest contributors to fear of failure. @landondonovan is right.
Kobe Bryant said the same, "Don't say anything. There's a conversation happening inside her head. An outside voice interrupts her process. Let her figure it out herself."
@DavidDack same goes for the half ironman. most folks' basic training week supports having a good go at this duration of a race, being able to race it rather than merely survive the distance. think integrating training rather than layering it in an unsustainble way.
Happy 4th, everyone! your best IS ahead of you, tune out the noise (it's not honest), and aim high, find your why (it didn't stray far), and help others (sometimes w/o even knowing).
@ashleyschendel play hard, not dirty. respect the game and those who play it. i watch for the talent. i am more likely to watch a'ja wilson and the aces than a game with no box office (yet) players.
