Now What??? How to make the most of your opportunities (in your sport and in life)

The ball is in your hands …

Now what???

Coach has called you in to pinch hit for your teammate …

Now What???

The play is coming your way and it is up to you to make the tackle …

Now What???

Today, we will talk about:

How you can make the most of your opportunities in your sport, and how this prepares you to make the most of your opportunities in life.

In sports, we are presented with many opportunities to make a play.

However, it is how we respond to these opportunities that will dictate the outcome.

All too often …

We get caught up in our heads.

We overthink and overanalyze:

• We lack trust in ourselves, our technique, and our abilities
• We lack trust in our teammates, and whether they will be there for us
• We lack trust in our coaches, and whether they are putting you in the best position to win

When we get caught up in our heads …

We inhibit our abilities and don’t perform to our potential.

However, experienced athletes …

Get out of their head and into the moment.

They sink into the flow of the game:

• They trust in themselves, and their countless hours of training and preparation
• They trust in their teammates, and their countless hours of training and preparation
• They trust in their coaches, and their countless hours of training and preparation

And when they get out of their heads and into the moment …

They free themselves up to perform at their potential.

The same is true in life.

Opportunities will present themself to you:

• An opportunity for a new job
• An opportunity to lead a group
• An opportunity to chase down your dream

How will you respond when these opportunities present themselves to you???

Will you get caught up in your head?

• Lacking trust in yourself, and whether you can handle it
• Lacking trust in those around you, and whether they can support you
• Lacking trust in your teachers and mentors, and whether they can help you succeed

Or, will you get out of your head and into the moment?

• Trusting yourself, and in your training and preparation
• Trusting in your teammates, your family, teachers, and peers around you
• Trusting in your coaches, your mentors, those you look up to, and a Metaphysical Power that always has your back

And when these opportunities come to you …

What will you do to allow your full potential to come to the table and make the most of them???

The ball is in your hands …

The opportunity is here for the taking …

How will you respond???

I wish you well on your journey of making the most of your opportunities, and I look forward to seeing you next week.

Inspiring YOU every step of your way,

Kyle
