When it comes to tournament time, teams need to live in the moment. It’s tempting to dwell on past glories or future possibilities, but the truth is that you can only control what’s happening right now. The USA needs to recognize the moment and stop living in the past, putting the best team out there.

To be successful in the game and in life, it’s all about taking responsibility for our choices and being clear on healthy boundaries. This requires strong focus and discipline to ensure that you’re not getting drawn in a thousand different directions but instead, finding clarity and direction in who or what you are responsible for. By setting firm boundaries and understanding your responsibilities, you will begin to create a clear path that leads to success—in the game and in life.

Unlocking your confidence is all about self-talk and letting the proof of your past accomplishments speak for themselves. When you focus on what matters, and channel that energy into positive reinforcement, anything's possible!

Breathing is not dependent upon an innate skillset that you are either born with or not. It is not a cultural predisposition. It is not confined by racial or gender limitations. It is, in fact, achievable for all. In this episode, I remind you not to forget your superpower, your breathing. Check-in on me on Instagram: @head1stbaseballtraining

Study after study has shown people respond more powerfully to negative emotions and experiences than they do to positive emotions and experiences.

Look sometimes you have to go through a tough situation - and it’s going to be hard, and it’s going to suck. Mike Tyson once said, “Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.” He was talking about being comfortable, being uncomfortable.
