Sports Article

Today, I learned that the key to being a good athlete isn't always just talent, but also having the right mindset. A lot of people who competatively participate ina thletics usually only think about the technique in the sport. I read an article about famous tennis player Rafa Nadal, and how he not only has great technique but also a great head game. He talks about he isn't ranked so high in theworld of tennis from being just plain old good, but by having a confident mindset.



Sometimes we forget that we have to believe in,ourselves before we can actually do anything, this is commonly forgotten because we only think about winning and nothing else. This article shows that a sport is so much more than that. You can ultimitely do anything you want to if you think you can, and you work hard towards that goal. It may not even be in sports, it may be in school or anything you are ttrying to accomplish something in. For example, wanting to get an A in a class may be tough, but if you study and keep hard at it, you can do it.


Many people like to blame things on their coaches, or instructors for not "teaching" them well, but really part of the blame is to be put on the student. Because, most likely part of the reason they aren't doing as well as they wish is because they don't have the right mindset.
