Getting Real About Your Game: The Power of Self-Evaluation for Athletes
Manage episode 523448740 series 3402398
In this episode of The Pressing Forward Podcast, we dive into one of the most overlooked skills in athlete development: honest self-assessment. Whether you’re a youth athlete, college athlete, or competing professionally, your growth depends on your ability to evaluate your game with truth—not ego, not excuses.
Host, Nowoola, reflects on his own college experience of being benched, receiving tough feedback, and realizing that talent alone wasn’t enough at the next level. We talk about film study, identifying weaknesses, leveraging your strengths, embracing hard coaching, and pushing past “cruise mode” to reach your full potential.
This episode will challenge you to look in the mirror, confront your gaps, and commit to getting better—not bitter—when adversity hits.
