Visualisation? can ...
By: MakeshiftEstablished. on 10 Mar 12, 05:13:24
Visualisation? can be important to develop but you must be careful not to get your hopes up too much. Visualizing a nice day, waking up on time, etc isn't going to do anything directly in the moment to help you experience either of those things. It's at odds with what you said at the end about controlling your internal processes. So I would say visualizing is helpful as long as you aren't putting too much weight on it, otherwise it just feeds your discontent with the way things really are.

When I was in high ...
By: Ajones293. on 02 Dec 10, 18:08:25
When I was in high school i tried playing football and that didn't work out right because I was afraid of getting hit? and I couldn't distinguish between adrenaline and fear, so it was eventually my downfall and if I had better knowledge of the things I know now and better skills, I could have possibly performed better.

The ability to ...
By: rayt33. on 02 Dec 10, 14:00:22
The ability to visualize achievement is very powerful. This positive thinking can easily influence someone when training or working. When one can begin to employ the higher order training, actually controlling your dreams and thoughts, to nurture this positive attitude, enjoyment is almost assured. You do not dwell? as much on the stress of competing, but simply the enjoyment, and that less stressful cognitive environment is likely to lead to better performances.

By: kelso3950. on 30 Nov 10, 15:16:03
kelvin: it's quite intriguing that a person can actually control their dreams. i didn't think this was possible, but now that i know it is im guna work on that. Also i'd like to add that its true when you don't think about the end result in a competition and just? enjoy the moment something good or not so good may happen, but with the right mind set, what ever happens probably wouldnt bother you because youre doing it for simple enjoyment.

Wow this hit home. Yesterday I was doing a Crossfit workout with my? friends and through out the workout I was just thinking how much it sucked and just wanted it to end. I was also competing with my friends and that was on my mind throughout the workout. I should have just focused on process and having fun instead of concentrating on competing and the end result.

As a competitive ...
By: postrategicsearch. on 21 Nov 10, 18:25:07
As a competitive swimmer I adhere to many of the principles and techniques that Dr. Elligan spoke of. The main idea of this video is to enjoy the process and competition of sports or of life. Basically, "Its not if you win or lose its how you play the game." ---Enjoy the process. I use positive visualization in many different aspects: work, racing, and project management and have had successful results. The breathing exercises and relaxation training can be used in everyday life by? all.

By: bblb1234. on 27 Jul 10, 13:20:43
As a bodybuilder and powerlifter, I find myself visualizing all the time. In training and in competition at some of the most weird places. I find myself visualizing while I'm cooking, eating, walking, and even in class sometime. I know that this? practice will help me get to a higher level in my competitive endeavors. Another thing that I have been trying to accomplish is turning my thinking around to more positive thoughts while prepping for a meet or a show, especially since I self sabotage.

Sports psychology has always been a specialty w/in the field that I have been interested in but did not know much about. I appreciated the metaphors and lessons that can be learned from sports psychology and applied? to everyday life. I found the part about lucid dreaming to be particularly interesting. I would certainly like to undergo some training to master this skill. Its utility seems endless.

By: giapup. on 22 Jul 10, 14:13:25
I like the idea that it's not about? the finish line, but enjoying the journey there. There is a poem called the dash, that phrases this very well. I use visualization all the time, especially when goal setting.

By: ElephantsKill. on 03 May 10, 20:24:39
Perfect video! You have a step by step guide line to how I could train myself like? a sports professional using psychology. I will put these techniques to use to be much more successful. I first heard of sports psychology when I watched Hoop Dreams the documentary taped here in Chicago. A little while later I heard the New Orleans Saints football team had their own motivational speaker. Thats when I realized how important ones mind could be.

By: rochoa20. on 29 Apr 10, 19:46:40
I'm an athlete and i like this video a lot because i really feel the message of enjoying the process needs to be spreaded though out chicago because a lot of people i know just always care about winning and they try to do anything to win these days and i seen fights break out during all types of? sports. all the other sport psychologys made a lot of sense too and i like the way he converted them to everyday life in different situations.

Especially the visualization and relaxation. Good information on how to stay focused on the things you have control over. I cannot control how hard the other girls are working out or dieting but I have complete control on my final outcome. Thanks Dr. Elligan.
