Lots of truth spoken here.

[Inky Johnson @inkyjohnson]

Don’t allow your advantage to become your disadvantage.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

When on the field, focus just on being an athlete. When in the classroom, focus just on being a student. When at home, focus just on being a family.

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

Kids have to learn to dig deep, struggle & fight their way out of adversity. You can put them on every kind of competitive team, get them a trainer/the best equipment/extra practice, but if they can’t claw their way past troubles that WILL come, they’ll never develop as athletes!

[Lynette Burchfield @mrs_burchfield]

Well said!!

Today is a great day to find one thing and be grateful for it.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

Becoming a successful athlete doesn’t guarantee happiness. There are many successful athletes who struggle with mental health. This is why it’s important to proactively take care of your mental health and look for happiness in areas besides athletic success.

KELVIN SAMPSON ON BAD SHOOTERS

“A lot of times people lie to a kid: 'You're a good shooter. Keep shooting.'

'No, you're not. Don't.'

'Well, you're hurting his confidence.'

"I don't want to build a bad shooter's confidence up."

Absolutely 1,000% true.

“Are you willing to sprint when the distance is unknown?” @LewisCaralla is always 🔥 but this one hits me in the gut every I see & hear it.

What separates us from our goals is usually looking back at us in the mirror. 💯

[Tim Tebow @TimTebow]

The thoughts we allow into our minds are so important. They can change the way we feel about ourselves, others and our lives. Pay attention to what you’re thinking about!

[Lynette Burchfield @mrs_burchfield]

It is okay to just stand. When you have done all you know to do...just stand.

[Lynette Burchfield @mrs_burchfield]

Life is like a sport. Also, life is hard. I am working on the mindset of "do hard better." This means manage it better and view it better. We cannot escape pressure or hard tasks. We can manage it and view it differently though.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

Every athlete experiences pressure in games. It's how you view and manage pressure that determines how well you perform under it.

[Tim Tebow @TimTebow]

Think about your life. Do you give yourself a chance for your greatest potential to shine through? Or is the battle lost before it's even fought? Instead of letting negative what-ifs paralyze you, choose to allow positive what-ifs to give you hope for the future!

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

The key to relieving stress is to focus on what you can control in the present moment. Once you become more mindful of the present moment and stop worrying about things you can't control, your mental health will start to improve.

[Coach Hines 🇺🇸 @CoachKurtHines]

Workouts are tough

Studying is tough

Getting up early is tough

Being a backup is tough

Starting is tough

Being an assistant is tough

Leading is tough

Winning is tough

Losing is tough

Fact is… Most of LIFE is tough.

CHOOSE your TOUGH, give it your ALL, and OWN IT!

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

As an athlete, you’re remembered most by your biggest achievements, not your failures. Let this give you the courage to take risks and the resilience to bounce back from adversity.

[Lynette Burchfield @mrs_burchfield]

Amen.AMEN.AMEN!!!!!

[Tim Tebow @TimTebow]

Wherever God has put you, there is something for you to do. God wants to use you where you’re at with what you have, not just in the future when you get to where you think you want to go, but now. You don’t have to wait until you feel equipped to live a life that counts!

[Lynette Burchfield @mrs_burchfield]

Worth watching...great reminder!

[Michael Johnson @MJGold]

This is powerful! Stop waiting for it to get easier. Learn to handle hard better!

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

Three simple steps to improving your self-talk:
1. Identify a negative thought.
2. Challenge its validity.
3. Find a more positive and realistic thought to replace it.

Improving your self-talk can greatly help your athletic performance and mental health.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

Being a brave athlete doesn’t mean you have no fear in games. It means you have the courage to face your fears, trust yourself, and take action despite feeling nervous.
