Sports Confidence Buster #3
Despite having great practices and high levels of confidence from practice, why do athletes question their practice or training?
Athletes question their training for many reasons some are rational and other are not rational:
- Did I train enough this week?
- Was the quality of my practice good enough?
- Did I do everything I could to prepare for this competition?
In this week’s video, I discuss how athletes undermine their confidence prior to competition by questioning their preparation.
Learn how to overcome worry about preparation in this week’s video.

The Confident Athlete
“The Confident Athlete” consists of 2 audio programs that include 14 days of confidence fueling exercises and a simple to follow workbook that guides you through the 14 days, helps you apply the strategies, and customizes the exercises to your personal needs.
Let me help you put a stop to the confidence leak. You can learn to have greater levels of confidence in competition than you do in practice by identifying the specific ways you undermine your own confidence and how to convert your practice confidence into COMPETITIVE CONFIDENCE.
“The Confident Athlete” is a ground-breaking system to teach you how to think like a champion and have ultimate self-confidence every time you step on the playing field, court, track, or course. The confident athletes was developed for any athlete – junior to professional –that wants to gain confidence. However, coaches and sports parents can learn how to teach others to perform with ultimate confidence. Use my program if you want to bust a slump or just wanting higher or more consistent levels of self-confidence.
