David is a Mental Toughness Practitioner, as well as a Health Care and Professions Council (HCPC) Registered Sport and Exercise Psychologist. He has successfully supported athletes, teams and organisations for over 10 years in order to ensure that they perform at their maximum more often.
He has a comprehensive knowledge around the development of Mental Toughness, a plastic personality trait, which determines or limits people to deal effectively with change, challenges and stressors. In today’s climate, during the Coronavirus pandemic this quality is becoming more and more valuable to individuals, teams and organisations.
Many footballers are driven to improve. They strive day in, day out, to get better. They sleep, eat and breathe football. Football is on their brain 24 hours per day. However, noticeably many footballers spend a lot of time thinking about the technical and tactical side of the game. They’ll spend countless hours refining their touch. Improving the passing, shooting or positioning. The gym might also be a place they enjoy going to, pushing and strengthening their body.
Yet, their mental game often gets left to chance. My advice in today’s episode is to be curious about your mental game and mindset. By doing so, it can often, surprisingly, make a huge difference and elevate your performances and enjoyment to a new level.
