Manage episode 414676616 series 2939456
Many athletes, golfers or people in everyday life take their thoughts too seriously. They then get caught up overthinking and it causes havoc with their decision making. In golfing terms, paralysis by analysis can take over, when the pressure is on and the result is often poor shots and missed putts. And lots of frustration!
In this episode, Trevor Jones a PGA Professional Golf Coach and Mental Performance Coach and I chat about this topic where he shares as a coach how he uses Acceptance Commitment Therapy or Training (ACT) to help golfers and other athletes deal with these challenges.
Key Learning Points:
- Feeling confident on every shot is unrealistic.
- All humans experience self-doubt.
- We all can get ahead of ourselves or get caught out dwelling on past mistakes.
- Nurturing psychological flexibility is very helpful tool to have in your toolkit.
- A challenge for you, seek to integrate mindfulness into your everyday life.
