Get Motivated, Get Better

The Quote

“I’ve always felt the pressure to win, but most of that pressure is from within”- John Elway (NFL Quarter Back)

The Lesson

Sometimes we set impossibly high standards for ourselves. We tend to put more pressure and expectation on ourselves than anyone else. While it is not a bad thing to be hard on ourselves and set high standards we must not let this have the opposite. Our goals need to be realistic, the pressure we put on ourselves proportionate. If we allow ourselves to take on to much pressure it will be debilitating and have a detrimental effect on both our performance and confidence.

The Action

I will be careful not to put too much pressure on myself.
