Confidence

  Have you ever just had that feeling of I just can't do it why try, but you want to do it and be successful at it?


  Well in my case this is in my basketball game I am afraid to shot. I'm afraid to miss or disappoint the team. My coaches tell me I have a good shot and I make tons of baskets at home but they have to beg me to shot in a game. I just have no confidence in my shot in a game I get nervous and tense up. My thoughts when I am open to shot are "OH NO why do I have to be open why cant somebody guard me I'm gonna miss".


  If you are like me and this case could be with lots of things thinking your gonna fail is gonna cause you to fail. Even if you do this thing a hundred times practicing and you do it good, not very often will it work to tell yourself that your going to fail right before you do it.


  So the rest of the basketball season I'm changing my "oh no, I'm open" to "yes, I am open I know I can do this". I really think this will help in my game! I also encourage you in whatever it is that you may have that you say "oh no I cant do this" to I can do this I know I can". See how this helps you.
