🧠 Mental Training: How Top Players Handle Adversity (And Why Most Don’t)
Every player hits adversity — bad game, getting subbed, losing confidence, injury, coach not rating you. The difference isn’t who has adversity… It’s how players respond to it. Elite players use a simple framework: 1️⃣ They separate the event from the identity Bad game ≠ bad player. One mistake ≠ losing your spot. Most players blend the two together and fall apart mentally. 2️⃣ They zoom in, not out Average players try to fix EVERYTHING at once. Top players pick one controllable action they can win today: - Win your 1v1 duels - Talk more - Sprint back on transition - Demand the ballSmall wins rebuild confidence faster than “motivation.” 3️⃣ They don’t hide Adversity makes most players disappear — fewer touches, less involvement, safer choices. High-level players do the opposite: 👉 They increase involvement. Getting on the ball more is how you break out of a slump. 4️⃣ They shorten the slump Everyone struggles. Elite players just struggle for shorter periods of time because they have a process. Your question today: 👉 When you hit adversity, what’s the FIRST thing that usually changes in your game? Comment below — we’ll break down how to fix it.

New week = new standard. A lot of players talk about wanting to improve fitness… so here’s your challenge: 👉 What’s your current mile time? 👉 And what’s the time you want to hit by the end of the month? Drop both below. If you don’t know your time yet, that’s your mission this week: run it once and post it. Accountability = improvement. Let’s set the tone today. 🔥

I don't know my mile time, but my 2 mile time is 13:03.27, and my goal is to drop it by at least 20 seconds

I am currently a high school senior (class of 2026) who has been recruited by Trevecca, but am looking for resources to still improve my soccer skills
