Championship Mindset Training | MidWeek Mental Rep

• Ask yourself what areas of your life do you need to strengthen your self-efficacy? What areas do you need to strengthen that self-confidence, that belief in your capacity to produce your desired results by your own actions? What elements from areas where you do have high self-confidence can you apply?
