mindset training
what is mindset training?
Mindset training is a developmental process that involves an athlete exploring and addressing the mental factors that affect performance. This includes developing various skills related to the “mental game” such as effective goal setting, building self-awareness, regulating stress and emotions, cultivating confidence, resetting after on the field errors, building resilience, imagery (visualization), managing self-talk, distraction control (focus), utilizing pre-performance routines.
In addition to building these mental skills, mindset training also includes the process of self-exploration and self-discovery. This is an internal, individual effort that encourages an athlete to begin thinking about thinking. To gain an understanding and an awareness of how their thoughts impact performance. It is a reflection on personal goals, sources of motivation and meaning and purpose as an athlete.
