    Basically my mental block is so weird, I don't know if you could tell me, how to visualise right way on this mental block, so, i practice martial arts, you can put any fighter in front of me, I'm not scared of him, but my brother is scarier than anyone else, so here's how it works, i never set up negative myself against others because others don't fight like my brother, and i can easily beat them, but i have this mental blokc with my brother, it's not that his scary, but his style is different and i take it too serious and think, why i can be so good against others but bad agains my brotherz and this makes it worse because you are what you think, and when he throws punches i blinl, move back i lean back, doesn't happen with others, i can block and strike, but i have mental block with brother, how do i set up in a best way to be like: wait he's just as same as others but i somehow think he's gonna win this sparing, how do i overcome this block and visualize

    Hello Elli, thank you very much for this video. It's good to see you presenting the topic publicly as a mental coach. I struggled a lot with dartitis (basically yips in darts) and am still not where I would like to be, but once I accepted that it is purely a mental problem I started to make progress and I believe I will end up being a better player than I was before because I have now started to open up to mental training. I agree with all of your points and I find myself in many of them. Many coaches (at least in Germany) don't talk about it, and many athletes deny the existence of this problem or don't take it seriously, so I'm grateful that there are coaches like you who talk about it publicly. Getting out of the cycle is harder than any ‘normal’ training and incredibly hard work and I know athletes who rather stopped playing than committing to this hard work. I wish someone had pointed it out to me when I was sliding into it, but if coaches take the issue seriously it can save many athletes from going through the cycle in the first place. Thanks! Best, Simon

    I'm a parent of a talented 11yr old soccer player, His mother and I have been very perplexed and left reaching for reasons he has not been himself on the pitch lately, playing passive. Last evening while talking with him, he revealed that he's struggling with performing and a fear of injury (past injuries have kept him from playing). He recently put in a lot of work to make a new team. His new teammates right from the beginning of the season started to place him as the "go to" player after the first 3-4 scrimmages/games, and I believe this added pressure and a failure of his mother and I not understanding/recognizing what is going on, is contributing to the anxiety. I have been suggesting a breathing meditation exercise, getting a nap before practice and games, vitamin supplements to help focus and anxiety, telling him to have fun and play loose, but it seems to be difficult to properly know "when" and "how" to do this correctly. I just had come across your videos, and would like to introduce them to him, where and how would you recommend starting? or any advice?

    It’s not even when u make a mistake, it’s when you repeatedly make mistakes in matches that you don’t make in training, it drives me nuts, it makes me lose my temper and by consequence I end up making more mistakes and not winning the match that im supposed to win which makes me furious at the end. And im saying that im supposed to win bc many times my game is better than my opponent’s but I just haven’t been able to stay calmed when I make mistakes so it ruins my game

    Hello Sir, I'm a professional graphic designer, and I really want to work with you as a thumbnail designer. I reviewed your RUclips channel and found that your current thumbnails good but look very simple and not that clicky, eye-catching, or attractive, which is really not suitable for your channel. If I work with you, it will save your time, and your videos will perform much better. I will make very attractive, eye-catching, and high-quality professional thumbnails for you that will grab the viewers' attention and increase the CTR of your videos for sure. I re-designed one of your video thumbnail, would you like to see?

      One thing you can try is while you are visualizing, narrate what you are trying to visualize in your mind. So instead of just trying to imagine it, imagine the scene, but talk to yourself as though you are narrating the scene as well.

    I’m loving these videos you put out, it’s helping a lot in my disc golf game. Tremendously honestly. But what what does “remember *why* you can succeed” mean? I am not sure why but it racks my brain when I hear that, like I can even fathom what it means or what it’s even asking me to do. Please explain to me as if I’m five years old..?

    • @elistraw
      @elistraw 23 дня назад

      Thank you! Yeah, remembering why you can succeed involves reminding yourself of the strengths you have and the preparation you've put in. It's easy to think about weaknesses before a game and worry about things going wrong. You want to remind yourself why they can go right. And specifically what you have done to prepare and the skills you have that you can use during the competition. Does that make sense?

    Love all the references to video games here. Tbh the fact that I suck at most games REALLY fucks w my mental health. I can do badly in a stupid game like Mario party and the shame & anger I feel will follow me for like the next week. I’m thinking about just putting down all games altogether bc of how damaging they’ve been to me. And the worst part is that they’re *supposed* to be fun. But damn I can’t help but think about how objectively dumber and slower I am than all my friends, when the final score comes up and I’m in dead last. That shit is depressing as hell; I just want to have some fun, not feel like a failure for the millionth time.

I kept dreaming about making it back to the national team again. but i am far away from it cause im injured and so on. the constant comparison of where i am and where i want to go led unconsciously to me having no love for the game anymore. My Goal was to big. I still have it but after this video i split the big goal into small ones: first being healthy again, then become fit, than become a starter and so on,.... small goals but that are within reach and BOOM in just 13 minutes my passion came back because im not under constant pressure anymore

    • @elistraw
      @elistraw Месяц назад

      When you don't know who your opponent will be, your plan will involve what you know you can control and you know you want to do well the next day. These controllables won't be dependent upon who your opponent is. For visualization, visualize yourself performing your skills but don't worry about imagining a specific opponent. For example, a basketball player would visualize himself shooting free throws and taking different shots. It wouldn't matter who his opponent was going to be.
