With Winning in Mind

What is Mental management

Introduction
  1. When you lose it matters a lot.. It Hurts..
  2. Silver is the closest thing you can get to the Glold Medal and still lose.
  3. It does not matter if you WIN or lose.. Until you LOSE

Why Winners Win?

  1. Ninty-five percent of winning is done by only five percentage of participants.
  2. Winners are convinced, they will finish first.... Others hope to do so.
  3. If you dont expect to win, you have no chance of winning.


Mental Management: The process of Maximizing the probability of having a consistent mental performance, under pressure, on demand.

  1. An outstanding performance is powerful. Also an outstanding performance is easy. Only poor performance is pleagued by frustration and extra effert.
  2. Three mental components a) Conscious Mind b) SubConscious Mind c) Self-Image
  3. SubConscious Mind :- the source of skills and power to perform. All great performances are performed at this stage
  4. Self Image:- Total of habbit and attitude

Principles of Mental Management

  1. "Your Mind can concentrate on one thing at a time. If you are picturing some thing positive in your mind, it is ipmpssible, at the same time to picture soem thing negetive. And, if you have a negetive thought, you can not, at the smae time, think positively. "
  2. Action statement :- I take control of what I picture, choosing to think about what i want to create in my life.

  3. What you say is not important. What you cause yourself or others to picture is crucial.

    Action statement:- I always give myself command in a positive way. I remind myself that what others are picturing, as a result of hearing me speak, is crutial to proper understanding.

  4. [Sub- Conscious mind] The Sub-conscious mind is the source of all mental power.

    Action Statement:- I am so well-trained that all my performanceis Subconsciously done. I trust my Subconscious to guide my performance in competition.

  5. [Sub- Conscious mind] The subconscious moves you to do what ever the Conscious mind is picturing.

    Action Statement:- I realize that my Scubconscious power is moving me to perform I ma consciously picturing. I control what i picture and picture only what i want to see happen.

  6. [Self Image] Self Image and performance are always equal. To change your performance, you must first change your self-image.

    Action statement:- I am aware that my performance and self image are equal. I am eager to change my habits and attitude to increase my performance.

  7. [Self Image] You can replace the self image you have with the self image you want, there by permanently changing performance.

    Action statement:-I am responsible for changing myslef image. I choose the habit and attitude i want and cause my self image to change accordingly.

  8. [Self Image] The Principle of Balance. When conscious, subconscious and self image are all balanced and working together, good performance is easy.
    Action statement: I cause my Conscious, subconscious and self image to move toward being in balance, there by increasing my performance without frustration.

  9. [Self Image] Nothing is going to change if you dont change yourself first.

Some other points..

During shooting I should think of performing good enough to score a 10 till the end of the match. Time to think about the score when the match is finished.

[Balance of power] It is essential always to keep the Conscious Mind in activity at hand or errors will occur.

[Balance of power] There is nothing wrong having a big self image as long as you are willing to balance it with an equally large level of conscious and subconscious skills.

Building the Conscious Circle
