520 _aDo you know what separates champions, winners, and losers? Losers quit at the first taste of defeat--they don't have the capacity to strive for success and simply accept losing as their identity. Winners, on the other hand, are the ones you remember for the accomplishments they made and the trophies they won. But champions--champions are on a different level--they are hardwired to constantly improve themselves, focused solely on competing with themselves instead of everyone else. They even see losing as a learning opportunity. This is why you need the mentality of a champion for you to survive and ace any sport--and all champions share one trait: they have high levels of mental strength. A lack of mental toughness is the biggest enemy of athletes. It can hinder your performance, fuel self-doubt, and lead you to give up at the slightest difficulty. Fortunately, mental toughness isn't something you have to be born with. You can develop it through practice and dedication--so you can become more resilient and flexible and be able to challenge setbacks and turn them into breakthroughs. In this guide are practical strategies to build up your mental strength, as recommended by a renowned certified mental performance coach.
