First it’s hard.
Then it’s messy.
Then it’s beautiful.

Consistent, imperfect action beats inconsistent, perfect action every time.

Action builds momentum.
Inaction builds doubt.

Waiting to feel ready keeps you stuck.
Moving forward — even imperfectly — builds confidence you can’t think your way into.

Stick with these principles long enough and you’ll start to notice something powerful:
the compounding effect of consistent, imperfect action.

That’s how real progress is made.

👉 Where are you waiting for perfect instead of taking imperfect action today?

02/11/2026

To keep your motivation strong going into 2026, don’t rely on intensity alone.

Intensity feels powerful…
but it often leads to burnout.

Elite athletes don’t win because they’re intense once in a while.
They win because they’re consistent every day.

The shift you need to make isn’t about doing more —
it’s about doing it over and over again.

Trade intensity for consistency.
That’s how momentum is built.
That’s how confidence compounds.

👉 Are you chasing short bursts of intensity, or building habits you can sustain all year?

02/09/2026

Fear of failure often disguises itself as “playing it safe.”

When athletes are afraid, they tighten up.
They compete conservatively.
They hesitate.

That hesitation is inaction and it’s the opposite of what performance demands.

Playing it safe doesn’t protect confidence.
It slowly destroys it.

Avoiding risk eliminates the possibility of success.
And when you repeat this pattern, you fall behind even if you’re more talented.

Talent doesn’t matter if it doesn’t show up when it matters most.

Great competitors aren’t fearless.
They’re great risk takers.

👉 Are you protecting comfort… or risking growth when the pressure is on?

02/06/2026

Every sport has a pain component.

There’s no way around it.
That doesn’t mean pain will happen —
it means it’s always a possibility.

Even golfers deal with it.
Back pain.
Hip injuries.
Surgeries.

So the shift isn’t avoiding pain —
it’s accepting it.

“I chose a sport where pain is possible, and I’m willing to embrace that reality.”

When you stop fighting the possibility of pain,
fear loses its power over you.

And when fear loses power…
performance takes over.

👉 What changes in your game when you stop fearing pain and start accepting the challenge?

02/04/2026

Starve fear.
Don’t feed it.

We all hate fear.
We all feel it.

But most people aren’t living to their full potential —
not because they’re incapable…
but because they let fear lead.

Fear does one thing really well:
• It stops risk
• It blocks growth
• It keeps you stuck

So why give it power?

Get angry at fear.
Call it a liar.
And when it shows up…

Walk toward it — not away from it.

That’s where growth lives.

👉 What fear have you been feeding that you need to start starving today?

02/02/2026

External locus of control is one of the biggest mistakes athletes make.

It’s the belief that nothing you do can change the outcome.
You become a victim of circumstances.
You wait.
You hope.
You react.

Internal locus of control is the opposite.

It’s knowing the control lies within you.
Your preparation.
Your mindset.
How you warm up your mind.
How you starve fear before it ever shows up.

Elite athletes don’t wait for confidence —
they create it through intention and preparation.

The question is simple:

👉 Are you letting circumstances control you… or are you taking control of yourself?

01/30/2026

🎾 You have two levels: your ceiling and your floor.

Everyone wants to raise their ceiling.
“How good can I play on my best day?”

But almost no one focuses on raising their floor.

Your floor isn’t just a level — it’s a standard.
It’s who you are when you’re not playing your best.

The smaller the gap between your ceiling and your floor, the more consistent—and dangerous—you become.

💡 Great players don’t rely on perfect days. They rely on strong standards.

🤔 Are you spending more time trying to raise your ceiling… or strengthening your floor?

📱 One reason athletes are so addicted to their phones?
Because they’re designed to be.

Smartphones don’t just deliver rewards — they deliver dopamine.
And when a reward doesn’t come?
➡️ Anxiety kicks in.
➡️ Anticipation rises.
➡️ The urge to check gets stronger.

Here’s the key most athletes don’t realize:
🔁 The most addictive systems use variable rewards — not constant ones.

That means you don’t get a reward every time you check.
And that’s on purpose.

Dopamine doesn’t peak at the reward itself —
📈 it rises in the anticipation of the reward.

So the more an athlete checks their phone to see if they got a message, a like, or a notification…
the more dopamine is released.

That’s how phone addiction spirals:
📲 checking
📲 checking
📲 checking

Driving.
At practice.
On vacation with family.

Not because athletes lack discipline —
but because the system is engineered to hijack attention.

🤔 If your phone is training your brain every day… is it training it for performance—or distraction?

01/28/2026

🧠 Never compromise your confidence.

That means never lowering your confidence for anything.

Great players don’t adjust their confidence based on a bad day, a bad rep, or a bad result.
Their confidence has a standard.

When elite athletes have an off day, they don’t tear themselves down.
They keep their confidence high and shift their focus to finding solutions.

Confidence isn’t about pretending everything is perfect.
It’s about believing in yourself even when it’s not.

🔑 Bad days require better problem-solving—not lower belief.

🤔 When you have an off day, do you protect your confidence or let the results decide how you feel about yourself?

📱 Nearly HALF of athletes told us their favorite thing they own is their phone.

This past year, we asked athletes one simple question:
“What’s your favorite thing you own?”

➡️ 48% answered: their phone.

Just a few years ago, the answers were different.
Athletes talked about:
🏀 Their favorite piece of equipment
🎁 A meaningful gift from a loved one
🚗 Their first car

Now?
The phone dominates.

This shift says a lot about how addictive smartphones have become—and how easily they can replace focus, presence, and even identity if we’re not intentional.

The question isn’t whether phones are useful.
It’s whether they’re quietly owning us.

🤔 What do you think this trend means for athletes’ focus, confidence, and performance—both on and off the field?

🧠 When do athletes benefit most from mental training and how young is too young?

First, every athlete is different.

But for most athletes we work with at SPMI, the average starting age is around 10 years old.

Why?

At this stage, athletes can:
• Process information at a higher level
• Think more introspectively
• Apply mental skills intentionally to performance

They’re ready for why, not just what.

For younger athletes, the approach shifts.

Instead of heavy cognitive strategies, we focus on:
• Behavioral skills
• Habits
• Routines

Developmentally, younger athletes grasp behavior first and when those behaviors are trained early, they create a foundation for skill mastery that lasts an entire athletic career.

Mental training isn’t about age.
It’s about meeting the athlete where they are developmentally.

🧠 If mental skills were trained as intentionally as physical skills early on, how different would athletes perform later in their careers?

01/23/2026

🧠 Talent doesn’t separate elite performers. Mindset does.

Athletes with less raw talent often outperform more gifted athletes because they aren’t focused on ego metrics.

They’re not obsessed with:
• Rankings
• Opinions
• Status
• Outcomes

Instead, they operate with a world-class mindset.

A mindset is simply a belief system and elite performers believe in different things.

They care about:
• Getting better
• Learning
• Competing
• Gaining experience

They measure success by growth, not validation.

When you care about the right things, pressure loses its power and performance becomes repeatable.

🧠 What are you currently measuring your success by ego metrics or growth metrics?
