The 4 Cornerstones Of Championship Culture – Part 4 Of 8- Creating Mentally Tough Athletes
The best aren’t born that way. They work harder and practice more to master their craft.’ – Jon Gordon
The 4 Cornerstones of Championship Culture – WYC is excited to partner with Upward Sports to kick off 2017 with an exciting new way for your to raise your coaching game for you and your coaches!
–
3rd Cornerstone – Creating Mentally Tough Athletes
–
This week we learn from Pete Jacobson, founder of Win Smarter and long time wrestling coach in New York
–
Pete has his teams focus on 3 things to create a culture of mentally tough athletes:
1 – Focus on the process not the outcome
2 – Embrace failure as a necessary step towards success
3 – For the kids to embrace #’s 1 and 2 – you need to embrace and live these as their coach
–
Do these 3 steps and you will create fearless athletes who are not afraid of failure. Their mental approach will be to embrace and get excited for challenges instead of fearing them.
