What Do You Need To Know?

There are 9 things that athletes need to know to be mentally prepared to play their best game:

1. Know what you control
2. Know what you want to do
3. Know how to stay in the moment
4. Know what to ask
5. Know what makes you stronger
6. Know how to visualize your performance
7. Know what to tune out
8. Know how to respond to a mistake or difficult moment
9. Know what you're playing for

To be mentally prepared to play their best game, athletes need to know what to think and how to think when they step onto the field or court. It helps to mentally position themselves so that they are able to make the best decisions in any play or game-time situation. They become mentally stronger and smarter players.
