If you regularly complete the daily journal prompts that we recommend at FREE2COMPETE then you you probably have this statement memorized:
Anything that happens to me is in my best interest, it’s an opportunity to learn and grow.
The reason we ask athletes to copy this statement down on a regular basis is because we are trying to rewire their brain with a better response to setbacks. We rarely have control over the events that happen to us throughout our day, but we do control our response. If you want to grow your mental game, you’ve got to grow your RESPONSE to setbacks, adversity, and failure. Watch this video about a powerful RESPONSE based on one word…GOOD!
“In the middle of a difficulty lies opportunity.”
