The game makes us suck, especially as hitters. Shoot, we only get 60 ft. to see a little white circle and try to hit it with a round bat somewhere no one can catch it. Oh, and the ball&#8217;s coming in as fast as 100 mph. Sounds fun! Definitely. Sounds hard, too! Even more so.<\/p>\n<p>Well it\u2019s no wonder why we get so frustrated on a regular basis. Think about it, <strong>the best hitters at the highest level of baseball have a mere 30% success rate (.300 BA)<\/strong>. I challenge you to find another profession where you wouldn\u2019t get fired after only doing your job successfully 3 out of 10 times&#8230;and no one is happy when they don&#8217;t succeed.<\/p>\n<p>No doubt you&#8217;ve heard all of this before. So what\u2019s that mean for baseball players?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>It means there will be an awful lot of times where you don\u2019t do as well as you expect to. <\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>It\u2019s a constant uphill battle and baseball players have chosen to make camp at the steepest of grades on the trail.<\/p>\n<p>What comes along with failure? Negativity. How do you play well? Positivity&#8230;belief and confidence that you are a great player and can succeed. Herein lies the uphill battle.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s well known positivity makes the engine run. Even in everyday life, positivity is a habit earned and valued by the most successful of people. However, as human beings, we have this unique ability to somehow dwell upon and be affected by negative events more powerfully than positive ones, even if both occurrences are present. <strong>Psychology calls this phenomenon Negativity Bias<\/strong>. So when little Johnny\u2019s goal at the dish is a hard line drive, and he squares one up straight to the center fielder, will he be mad? You bet he will be. When the goal is to win the baseball game and you do but you went 0-4 with 3 K\u2019s, you\u2019re going to be mad about the three K\u2019s? You get the picture.<\/p>\n<p>Why are people so dang negative? <strong>It\u2019s an acquired skill the brain has learned to try to protect us from the dangers of the environment.<\/strong> You\u2019ll remember the horrible feeling of a burn from a fire more specifically than the refreshing feeling of a hot bath. The fire will hurt you again, but the bath probably wont.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo Coach Jordan, on the baseball field my brain is automatically going to be negatively biased about everything that happens but I somehow have to find a way to be positive because that\u2019s going to make me play better?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Right you are, young man. It\u2019s a tall task that most don\u2019t figure out until late in their career, if at all. There\u2019s good news, though: I believe we can practice dealing with the negativity way more effectively than we do now. Imagine that&#8230;practicing thinking. Even so, it\u2019s a necessary part of being a successful baseball player that is vastly undervalued by players and coaches.<\/p>\n<h4>Practicing Positivity&nbsp;<\/h4>\n<p>Here are a few general ideas players that I work with will hear me talk about to help them throughout the course of a game or season.<\/p>\n<h5>Acceptance<\/h5>\n<p>Learn to understand that <em>you will think negatively at some point<\/em>. It&#8217;s an automatic response from your brain. But how we react to a negative thought defines its effect on us. <strong>Can I counter this negative thought with something positive that will allow me to feel more confident?<\/strong> \u201cI can\u2019t find the barrel today, but I\u2019ve got one more at-bat, and I am seeing this pitcher well.\u201d Maybe it\u2019s true that it wasn\u2019t your day at the plate, but the first phrase is still a negative thought. The second phrase ends this entire idea with another true positive statement. It\u2019s certainly a victory if every thought we have is capped off with something positive.<\/p>\n<h5>Perspective<\/h5>\n<p>It\u2019s very easy to wander into the land of seriousness when playing baseball, especially if we aspire to use the game to make something of our lives. The higher level you get, the more serious players tend to be, and sometimes in a negative way. <strong>Remember&#8211;we are playing a game!<\/strong> Act like it, show that smile on your face when you do well, and congratulate your teammates. Absolutely be mad when you don&#8217;t play well, but understand that this game will never be the end-all-be-all of your life because it will eventually end, as it does for everyone. Keeping a fresh look on why you are playing baseball in the first place can help you keep a clear view on life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><strong style=\"font-style: inherit;\" data-mce-style=\"font-style: inherit;\">&#8220;Being positive won&#8217;t guarantee you&#8217;ll succeed, but being negative will guarantee you won&#8217;t.&#8221; &#8211; Jon Gordon<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/p>\n<p><em><em>CoachUp is the safest and easiest way to find a coach for personalized training.
