How Do You Beat The Best?

                How do you beat the best when everyone is telling you that you can’t? You beat the best by being the best.

                What would you do if you were one week away from playing the best football team in the league? Would you get scared and back down? That’s not the way anyone should handle anything. You need to tell yourself that you are the best and after telling yourself that multiple times, you will eventually believe it. If you go in with a positive attitude, you will leave with a positive attitude, if you believe in yourself the entire way.

                Imagine, you are playing the best team in the league and right off the bat, they score twice and are up 16-0. Everyone would imagine you to just give up because they would lose all hope in winning. No one would ever expect the losing team to score 7 times in a row all before the first half is over. It takes courage and a lot of will power to bring yourself up after being put down real quick.

                Now, how did the junior cougars pull this off in their football game today? They used a little psychology and a lot of will power. The coaches had added another practice and whenever they got the chance, they would tell them they were going to win and how badly they were going to beat the other team. By telling the kids this more times than I can count, they boys got it in their head that they were going to win. That’s psychology, my dear.  

                This works for any situation you are feeling unsure of. Whether it be a test, or another sporting event. If you tell yourself enough times that you are going to come out successful, you will be surprised with the outcome every time. Fake it, until you believe it. That is a quote everyone should live by because you by doing this, you will believe in yourself a lot more and help yourself build more and more confidence.
