MESSAGE #677 1-2-3-4 PRESSURE…
Anyone can perform well when they feel good, or are “in the zone,” but it’s the great ones that perform well when everything is on the line.
It’s the great ones that love the pressure.
But is it really pressure?
No, it’s perception.
Does the situation make you fearful or excited?
Someone asked Pete Sampras after he retired, what he missed most about playing professional tennis. Sampras said, “I miss feeling so nervous that I would throw up before the finals of Wimbledon.”
So if you can thrive on pressure on the field, at work, in school and in your relationships, you will be one of the greats.
Thanks for reading.
