I'm the world's worse about negative self-talk and self-doubt. After reading the book "Your 15th Club" by Bob Rotella last year, I realized this is a lot of my problem. He has good advice for how to fix it but I obviously didn't stick with it and it is a recurring problem.
Here's a quote from his book:
"Self-talk can be a great tool for improving confidence, but it can erode confidence just as easily. Self-criticism can create a losing syndrome. You want to be your own cheerleader."
Do you have negative self-talk going on in your head? He recommends paying attention to the thoughts that go on while you play and writing them down so you will become more aware of all the negativity. Our focus should be on the good stuff and building our confidence instead of focusing on what we didn't do so good.
Do you struggle with this too?
