“Don’t focus on the pressure or the fear of losing. Instead, think about how incredible it feels to be in an intense battle playing the game you love. When you embrace the joy of competing, the pressure doesn’t paralyze you; it dials you in even more” @BallisPsych

Have principles, systems and processes you operate from. Don’t just copy random methods from social media and call it a program. Your athletes and/or clients deserve better

We had a RB come out to spar with us for the 1st time in our learning environment yesterday. I asked a couple of our guys, “If you could go back & take in the unique problem-solving that takes place here again for the 1st time, what advice would you give another player to better maximize the experience?” Both players said to the new RB: “Fight the urge to always be moving your fastest. You’ll see new information & opportunities you’ve been missing for a while if you just slow down a bit & begin to actively search the problems in front of you more.”

“The person you marry is the person you fight with. The house you buy is the house you repair. The dream job you take is the job you stress over. Everything comes with an inherent sacrifice—whatever makes us feel good will also inevitably make us feel bad.” — @markmanson

Put weight on the bar, train harder. Your 5s ecc with 145lbs on the bar on a 190lbs athlete is probably not doing what you think it is. Stress the system so you actually get training benefits. Not just cute exercises for selling courses and social media clout

If you are really going to use isometrics and eccentrics to their fullest you need to actually challenge the system in a way that moves the needle.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The author states, “Saffron had the largest decrease in depressive symptoms.” However, it was saffron PLUS antidepressants (ADT) that had the largest decrease in depressive symptoms. cambridge.org/core/journals/…

If you understand principles, you can create tactics. If you are dependent on perishable tactics, you are always at a disadvantage.

5. Most people chase quick wins. Champions think differently: Magnus revealed he can see patterns and consequences 20-30 moves ahead. The lesson? Think long-term. Always.
