Mental management after success

[Boudreaux78]

After a successful stage or three, how do you maintain the drive, humility and focus to finish the match strong?

By not thinking about those items in the past. Keeping my awareness current. Avoiding conversations w squad members who want to talk about it.

 

Remind myself in neutral terms it is ok to succeed. Above all else focus on my actions and not outcomes.

Folks - don't hold your breath !!!

I find holding my breath has negative side effects!

 

I have heard many people say build upon successes. Guess that’s the hard part, build but don’t let them go to your head.

+1!!!  Excellent...  Never allow others to interfere with your progress sometimes talking to squad members can't and will get in your way.  Stay away from negativity, focus on present and not the past and above all else, maintain a positive mind~
