No problem! Players and teams who use mental training quickly discover it gives you a major edge over players and teams who only do physical training, because it works at the very control center of your game.

As the mind controls the body, and not the other way around, mental training techniques have also been proven to work in countless other sports well, all over the world.

The method of training both the mind and the body is one of the main breakthroughs that separates the 21st century 'mindset' in sports from the past century.

Yet interestingly I noticed a lot more interest in mental training from baseball players and coaches than softball.

As a mental trainer, for the past few decades I had worked with a vast number of players and coaches from all over the world, teaching mental toughness and peak performance - to boost their competition performances, and deal with various issues, slumps in form, and challenges they encounter.

As the results in baseball had been outstanding, this created a huge opportunity for softball players wanting the edge over their opponents. And just as expected, the results have been just as good in softball!

No matter what level of softball you play - whether it be in a major or minor league, big league, university or college softball teams - major improvement is possible because they all seem to experience similar problems and challenges.

These include lack of belief, negative thoughts, wilting under big game pressure, not performing to their practice form, etc etc. 

Mental training helps players and teams play to their full potential, to break out of batting slumps, overcome throwing, pitching or fielding problems, thriving under big game pressure, rebounding back quickly and powerfully from setbacks, increasing belief and confidence, and focusing so deeply that you become so immersed in the game that you do not notice anything else.

How Your Mind Works in Softball

Players and coaches would often say they have all the physical batting, fielding and pitching skills, and tons of ability at their disposal, but under big game pressure they were not able to produce the same level of performance as their practice form.

Soon they realized this was because they needed to become mentally tougher, and stronger in the big game situations.

A quick scan of your, or your team's, recent results gives a clear indication as to how your internal 'programming' is currently wired.

This wiring tends to continue delivering the very same level of results, over and over again, much like a computer.

If these results could possibly be better, then change needs to be made at the inner, or software, level of the mind which controls your softball performances on the field.

Mental training also helps players reach their own personal 'Zone' - the mental state which delivers the peak of human performance and potential on the field. 

When a player is 'in the Zone', their game flows perfectly and instinctively on auto-pilot, without any conscious thought required - as their performance runs automatically from their subconscious mind and muscle memory.

Problems arise for players when the conscious mind becomes over-stressed during a big game.

When this happens, instead of the body getting its instructions from the subconscious mind (the body's control center, containing all your softball memory and experience), instead, the conscious mind panics.  Needless to say - when this happens, disaster soon follows!  

You see, the conscious mind simply has no idea how to play softball.

Working with the auto-pilot process of your powerful subconscious mind, where all your movement originates from, is the answer.

The subconscious mind is an awesomely powerful mechanism which works almost exactly the same way as a computer - it runs 'programs'.  

So depending upon how it is programmed, it can deliver white-hot results on the field, or it can just as easily sabotage us with missed opportunities, lost confidence, poor form, unusual technical errors, fear of success or failure..... and I am sure you know the rest probably even better than I do.  

Unfortunately, we do not get what we deserve in life - we get what we expect, down at the very deepest level.  

And so, depending upon whether we are programmed with a positive expectation of success, or with a negative expectation, it heavily contributes towards our final result in the game. 

As well as hypnosis, visualization is one of the powerful methods used to pre-program performance on the field, strengthen results and overcome past barriers.

Visualization is regularly imagining the exact level of performance you wish to play when you are out there playing the league game - where you imagine all the great aspects of your batting, pitching and fielding that you wish to have at your disposal.

When used correctly, this is one of the most powerful techniques used around the world today in modern sport, for sports improvement.

However, for those who do not use mental training, unfortunately the mind can often sabotage our game.

For instance, many players who experience any kind of recurring patterns or self sabotage in their game (which are very common mental issues I work on with athletes) are most often caused because they were unknowingly visualizing themselves to fail.

This process is much like running a constant movie though your mind all day long without realizing, which is programming your future results.

Having said that, many players use it who have no problems at all - they simply want to improve their performances even further.

When it comes down to it, it's the mind that controls the body - but most athletes tend to see this the other way round until they experience a problem in performance and begin to understand how the mind / body connection works.

The most important aspect of mental training is that you are the one who is in charge of it the whole way - because you customize your visualization each time to suit your next competitive game.
