This One Practice Will Change Your Life

performance purpose success

Today's message is inspired by the book, Pressure: Why We Crumble Under Pressure and How We Can Overcome It by Dane Jensen. The book discusses strategies for performing well under pressure. One key practice emphasized in the book is "reframing pressure as a challenge rather than a threat." This mindset shift allows athletes to see high-stakes situations as opportunities to demonstrate their skills rather than as potential failures. By focusing on the positive aspects of the challenge—like the opportunity to succeed or to showcase one's abilities—athletes can reduce anxiety and improve their performance in critical moments. This practice involves consciously altering one's perception of pressure, thus turning stress into motivation.
