🧠✨ Master Your Mindset with Mental Skills Training! ✨🧠

Unlocking peak performance isn’t just about physical training—it’s about mental training too! Here are the 4 essential steps to refine your mental game for each mental skill:

0️⃣ Unaware of Bad: We start by being unaware of the counterproductive mindsets holding us back.

1️⃣ Awareness: Next, we become conscious of the mindsets, thoughts, emotions, and indicators we need to change. This is the first step to transformation!

2️⃣ Ability to Change: With awareness, we develop the ability to shift our approach to a more productive one. It’s about making intentional changes to improve our mental game.

3️⃣ Unaware of Good: Finally, we reach a point where our productive habits become second nature. We perform at our best without overthinking, allowing us to stay in the zone during competitions.

By slowing things down and refining our approach, we speed up our performance and build the right habits!

Do your research when looking for someone to help on the mental aspect of sport. 🧠 Mental skills training is increasing in popularity, but not all credentials are created equal.

The Certified Mental Performance Consultant® (CMPC) credential demonstrates basic knowledge, skill, and competency through rigorous education, supervision, and training.

**Things to keep in mind:**
- High performance vs Clinically trained Psychologists
- If someone doesn’t have the CMPC, it doesn’t mean they are untrained or bad.
- If someone has the CMPC, it doesn’t guarantee they are great.

Always dig deeper and choose wisely for your mental game.
