Confident, Calm & Clutch Journal: Your Mental Toughness Training Companion

Includes a FREE Mini-course included with Purchase!!! Are you an athlete trying to improve your game? Do you ever struggle with: being motivated to train having confidence issues, dealing with the fear of failure, perfectionism, or bouncing back from mistakes difficulty concentrating or frequently losing focus getting so nervous before or during performances that you freeze up or underperform If so, you can benefit from sport psychology or mental skills training. This journal is designed to help you with the first and most essential step of any mental skills training program, building self-awareness. If you want to become more successful and start achieving your goals, you have to be willing to ask yourself how it’s going AND be honest in your assessment. Mental skills training helps the performer understand their mind-body connection and how to leverage it to enhance or maintain their motivation, confidence, energy, or focus. These things do not happen by chance and can be deliberately learned, practiced, and developed. By being deliberate and intentional with the mental side of performance, you can enhance the quality of your physical training. If the quality of your training goes up so does the quality of your performance. As we know, practice makes permanent. If you practice the tools associated with being motivated, confident, energized, and focused in training, like any other skills, you should be able to do them in performance moments under pressure. Lying to yourself doesn’t help you grow. It’s okay not to be perfect (no one is!). Think of these performance reviews / daily reflections as opportunities to become even more awesome than you currently are. The only way to do that is to self-reflect and ask for honest feedback from your coaches. Yes, this will be uncomfortable! But no one gets better by staying in their comfort zone. I created this journal as a companion for my mental skills training programs for elite teenage athletes. There wasn’t a journal on the market to meet the needs of my athletes, so I made one. I am a sport psychology professional, former D1 athlete, and current mental toughness trainer and performance expert for the US Army. The first few pages of the journal explain what types of things you should be journaling about as it relates to your performance. The rest of the pages give you an opportunity to rate the quality of your confidence, motivation, focus, and energy each day. This allows you to see trends over time. The notes pages allow you to reflect and free think about your experiences that day and how your specific thoughts, emotions, and physiological states affect you and your performance. The goal of this journal is to help you build on the mental processes that help your performance, and discover what’s getting in your way so you can change it.
