So you have about a week remaining in your regular season. If you don't have a chance for post-season play, enjoy your last few days with your teammates and take pride in your team and the relationships you have built this season. After all, isn't it more than just the love of the game, but the people we share it with that brings us back each season?
If you foresee a playoff opportunity your mind is going to be your biggest challenge. You might start to feel drained of your sport, or stressed about your current or upcoming performance. Use this week to work on your mental game with these suggestions:
1. Have fun EVERY DAY. Enjoy your teammates and practice/competition. It's important to take the end of your season seriously, but it's essential to relax and enjoy the game too. So try to balance between competition and making a few goofy memories at the same time.
2. Realize you're "Too Blessed to be Stressed!" This translates to your game by realizing you are not perfect; whether you are striving for a PR or perfect game--recognize that passion is great but perfection is not the measure of your worth. Too much focus on perfection is only going to stress you out and lower your performance.
3. And lastly, keep up the hard work... though you shouldn't demand perfection, demanding a solid effort each day is your responsibility. And it feels good at the end of the day that you put forth your best.
****now is the time your nutrition regimine should be propelling you through the end-of-season fatigue!!
Good Luck as you finish out the rest of your "regularly scheduled season"
