One of the key aspects to use 100% of your potential in matches is self-confidence
Unaware of the importance of this aspect, many players waste their careers.
If you want to improve this aspect, you have to start working on it today because the process of building it is sometimes just as time-consuming and requires as much work as developing typical football skills.
To support you in the process of building unwavering confidence, we have 5 ways for you today to help you with this.
1) ALWAYS THINK ABOUT YOURSELF WITH RESPECT!
Many people tend not to respect themselves.
When something does not go your way or you make a mistake, very often out loud in the company of others or only in your own
mind speaking badly of yourself to defuse your emotions, thus creating an image of yourself as a failure in your mind and the minds of others.
To build self-confidence, notice your mistakes, draw conclusions and train on their basis to develop, but never speak or think badly about yourself because you are unknowingly destroying your career!
2) DO NOT COMPARE YOURSELF WITH OTHERS ALL THE TIME.
It is good to compare yourself with others once in a while to gauge your progress or where you are at the moment.
Otherwise, comparing yourself with others is pointless or even harmful.
There will always be someone who has higher skills than you, develops faster, has better conditions for development, etc., therefore, constant comparison can only lead to loss of self-confidence.
Concentrate on yourself and if you want to compare yourself with someone, compare yourself to yesterday.
3) FORGIVE YOURSELF MISTAKES AND GO FORWARD.
Every footballer, even at the highest level, makes mistakes.
The key is, above all, that you would be able to learn new things, develop and react to them properly without losing your confidence.
A good example is Nicolas Jackson, the Senegalese striker.
Yesterday, in Chelsea's match against Tottenham, he kept wasting opportunities to score a goal.
However, in the key moment in the 75th minute he scored a goal that gave the lead.
Then he scored two more goals.
However, he would not have done it if he had not reacted correctly to previous failures.
4) BE GRATEFUL FOR YOUR TALENT INSTEAD OF COMPLAINING YOUR WEAKNESSES
Regardless of the level at which each player plays, he has both weaknesses and great advantages.
Develop and work hard on both your strengths and weaknesses, but always focus on being thankful and enjoying your strengths and never complaining about your weaknesses!
This simple trick will help you take your confidence to an amazing level!
5) ALWAYS THINK POSITIVE!
Cristiano Ronaldo once said: "IN MY MIND, I AM ALWAYS THE BEST"
You should do the same. Fill your mind with faith with positive information, not no matter how hard it is to think positively.
Watch motivating movies, read inspirational books, smile and build enthusiasm!
Look for reasons why you should believe in yourself.
Follow all 5 tips and I guarantee you that if you work hard and train both individually and in the club every day, if you build your confidence your game will definitely improve.
