Use Your Imagination In Sports 

Today we are sharing with you a mental toughness pressure tip using your imagination from Craig Sigl, the Mental Toughness Trainer for Youth Sports.   

When you are playing your sport you need to practice being in pressure in your imagination, so you are ready when you experience it in real life.  

Before going to sleep at night or while daydreaming during the day, imagine yourself being in a high pressure situation and coming through with flying colors.  Pre-live it in as much detail as possible how  you want to be thinking at the critical moment of truth.  Practice using positive self talk like: "I can do this"  "I am a clutch player" "I want the ball."  Imagine being intense, but not tense!  Calm, yet passionate.
