What Are Mental Skills?

coachtraublogoTalent won't get you there by itself. Neither will sweat and blood. You'll need to work smart while working hard to approach your potential. You'll need to train both your physical and mental skills.

What are mental skills? Anything that impacts your performance other than talent and physical skills.

  • Courage
  • Confidence

Michael's Mom and Harvey's Dad

The Mental Game of Baseball Book Cover Dorfman"THAT is powerful and did I need to hear it. Thank you."

-Wanda, in receipt of the story below via Coach Traub's Mental Skills Tips e-newsletter

 

Harvey Dorfman's Dad said, "Sufferin makes you stronger, kid, as long as you survive." He may have borrowed that from Friedrich Nietzsche who said, "That which does not kill us makes us stronger."

Harvey was the best mental skills coach I've known and I was lucky to have him as a mentor. In addition to World Series Rings as a coach, he won a national championship as a goalie in college and survived serious asthma as a child.

Individual & Team Consulting Services

puzzle1There are three levels of mental toughness:

1) Want it

2) Know what to do

3) Do what you know!

Mental skills develop with practice, just like physical skills. Coach Traub's training helps individuals and teams by adding distinctions and details to the things they already are figuring out about how to give their best effort one play at a time. You must bring some courage and motivation to the table, but the simple truths (simple to understand - not easy to do) Coach Traub teaches clarify how to get from where you are to where you want to be... faster.

Motivational Quotes

WORDS TO LIVE BY

 
LESSONS

Excellence is to do a common thing in an uncommon way.

-Booker T. Washington

I don’t think much of a man who is not wiser today than he was yesterday.

-Abraham Lincoln

Don’t measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability.

Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.

Be more concerned with your character than with your reputation. Your character is what you really are while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

Failure to prepare is preparing to fail.

-John Wooden

Poems

The Man In the Glass

by Harry Holland Upchurch

When you get what you want in your struggle for self
And the world makes you king for a day
Just go to the mirror and look at yourself
And see what that man has to say.

For it isn’t your Father or Mother or wife
Whose judgment upon you must pass
The fellow whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the one staring back from the glass.

THE 12 QUALITIES OF HAPPINESS

from The Dallas Morning News 5-24-05 Page 6E

In What Happy People Know, author Dan Baker outlines what he calls “The 12 Qualities of Happiness.” Not all have to be present, he writes, “and they don’t all have to be there in equal amounts.” Still, most must be abundant for someone “to experience the kind of lasting, rock-solid happiness that endures even when life gets tough to take – as it always does.”

Love
• Even better than being loved is loving somebody.
