In episode 206, I add a further step to what I discussed in the previous episode, 204, when I talked about managing expectations. The situation I consider is big matches when football and soccer players can be guilty of focusing too much on opponents. The key message I look to spread includes how you can set process goals to shift your expectations away from your opponent’s actions. To focusing on you and how you can make your opponent’s life very difficult so that they don’t enjoy playing against you. Enjoy tuning in!
