The further we make it in our athletic careers, the faster the games become. We need to be able to calm our emotions and <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coachup.com\/nation\/articles\/silencing-noise-finding-the-zone\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">remain in the moment<\/a><\/em>. A commonly overlooked characteristic of an athlete is how much they believe in themselves. When the moments are flying by and pressure is mounting on the field, believing in yourself and having faith that you can accomplish your goals is often all that it takes to succeed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is all too easy to succumb to adversity. When calls don&#8217;t go your way or an opponent is giving you their A-game, it is always easier to give up and let the moment get away. Whether you&#8217;re on a team and pass the pressure off to your teammate, or you play an individual sport and back down from a personal fight, it is always easier to give up. It is easier said than done, but truly believing in yourself is the only key you need to take adversity head on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pressure of competition when you <em>don&#8217;t believe in yourself<\/em> is a lonely, scary thing. It can become hard to control your breath, and you may start sweating or even shaking. The truth is that once you&#8217;ve hit that point\u2014and anyone who has felt it knows\u2014you are too far gone in that particular moment. That moment or opportunity eluded you once you stopped believing in yourself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>But how can you grow this belief in yourself?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Start believing in yourself and stop caring about everything else<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A google search will lead you to psychology lectures and studies of the subconscious, but digging deeper into your mind is not always the answer. Many athletes find the &#8220;who cares&#8221; philosophy to help a great deal in developing their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coachup.com\/nation\/articles\/the-forgotten-side-of-sports-the-mental-side\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">mental game<\/a>. <br><br><em>Your confidence has wavered and you&#8217;ve begun questioning whether you are good enough\u2014who cares?<\/em><br><em>You get nervous in performance and are scared to make mistakes\u2014who cares?<br>Your opponent is bigger, faster, and stronger than you\u2014who cares?<\/em><br><br>Convincing your brain to believe when you are already struggling to do so is nearly impossible. It&#8217;s not a switch that can be flipped on and off, and if you&#8217;re in that lonely space of not believing in yourself, you&#8217;ve got to start trying something new. Saying &#8220;who cares&#8221; may seem negative, because every coach wants players who care, but we&#8217;re not talking about giving up your care for the game. We&#8217;re talking about giving up your care about failure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bad stuff happens to every athlete at one point or another. Maybe you can&#8217;t get your fastball over the plate, or you get nervous at the freethrow line. There are a million different reasons to stop believing in yourself in sports, and a million more to suggest that you should. Who cares if you messed up once or even ten times in a row. <em>Who cares<\/em>. Give up your fear of failure by giving up the expectation to succeed in every moment. Loosen up your mentality and you can start believing in yourself again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.coachup.com\/nation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/cropped-636159477362064169Runningwithconfidence.png\" alt=\"instilling confidence in your athlete.
