Mental Toughness

Have you ever had a game where nothing is going good? 

When the shots aren't going in?

When the passes aren't connecting?

When the referee's calls aren't going your way?

When the parents are yelling at us and not with us?

It is easy to play when everything is going great. But who can play when nothing is going right? Who can we count on to change momentum?

Mental Toughness is being able to play the right way and make the right play no matter what is going on around you.

Mental Toughness is being able to shoot the right shot even though you missed your first 5 because it is the right shot.

Mental Toughness is being able to move on to the next play after each mistake.

Mental Toughness is being able to recognize and learn from your mistakes, but still have a positive energy that you need to do better, immediately.

Mental Toughness is not allowing a mistake to set you back.

Mental Toughness is how quickly you can bounce back.

Be mentally tough. It is a skill that can be developed. Practice it. Especially practice it when things aren't going your way.

I believe in you.
