Baseball Coaching: 2 Powerful Stories
TWO really powerful things to share today…. PLEASE BE SURE TO SEE THE SECOND ONE!
—————————
Too often young players think Big Leaguers have it all together.
They think Major League players are super confident all the time.
Good article today talking about Josh Hamilton’s struggles lately.
“Struggle is a part of baseball,” said Rangers manager Ron Washington.
And Hamilton is struggling.
Lots to comment on in that article, but I’ll let it stand on its own because of the power of my second sharing…..

WHY I TAP
————————–
Check out this video.
WARNING: there are a couple of swear
words and tales of graphic violence (none shown).
You will FEEL the video, not just see and hear it.
The short video gives you 4 case studies of traumatized war vets tapping their way to personal peace.
Given what tapping does for these vets, do you think it could help Josh Hamilton?
Or Bradley from yesterday’s email?
Or YOU with your stress?
If YOU were adept at “tapping” and could produce results like you see here (and yes it works with much much less severe problems), would you spread the word like an evangelist?

Baseball Training: How to Beat Perfectionism
Interesting quotes from Tampa’s own Lou Piniella today on MLB.com.
He hits two big mental game issues…. the deep breath and perfectionism.
Here’s a quote lifted from the article…
—————————–
Bradley will be back in the Cubs’ lineup Wednesday, and the hope is he will be more relaxed. That’s been Piniella’s message to the outfielder the past two days. Is it as simple as taking a deep breath?
“Yeah, get out of the box, take a nice breath and relax,”
Piniella said. “What happens invariably is you create a little tension, and I’m not talking about Bradley in particular, but you start using your bigger muscles and you don’t get through the ball.
“It’s the same thing as when you play golf — the first thing they tell you is to hold the club nice and loose.
When you hit the ball, that’s when you tighten up. It’s the same thing hitting a baseball.”
Bradley’s biggest problem may be his need to be a perfectionist.
“There’s nothing wrong with being a perfectionist,”
Piniella said. “Don’t get disappointed if you’re not perfect all the time. You’ve got to be a realistic perfectionist.”
Baseball players get three hits in 10 at-bats and they’re considered successful. Bradley isn’t alone with his struggles at the plate.
“I’ve got every confidence that some of the guys who have struggled here will get much better as the year goes on,”
Piniella said. “I hope it’s sooner rather than later.”
