A Direct Affirmation gives training a clear direction. Pair it with recorded evidence so confidence grows from performance you have actually demonstrated.
Identify problems only long enough to find the cause, then define, practice, and reinforce the action you want to repeat.
Use a repeatable Stage Performance Routine from walkthrough through execution, Mental Reload, and reset. Reserve the Pre Shot Routine for the final actions before the start signal.
Competition is more than a score. Use matches to evaluate which skills transfer, identify solutions for areas that need work, and guide what you train next.
Structure practice so you reinforce what you already do well, deliberately improve the areas that need work, and finish with successful performance you want to carry forward.
Learn how positive imprints can help you recognize successful performance, learn from mistakes without dwelling on them, and reinforce the shooting you want to repeat.
