As a player who experienced the benefits of working with a mental performance coach during his career, on this call he talks about Creating a Competitive Edge Through Mental Performance Training and the following ideas.
Why he took an approach of It’s Me vs. Me
How can you at the end of the day be satisfied with just being you and sticking to your approach
Why he took a deep breath every pitch and why he subscribes to the breathe or die mentality
The connection between the eyes and the brain and the importance of present moment focus
When you should gear it up and when you should slow it down
How to avoid the trap of getting caught up in what everyone else things
The importance of being quiet, taking a breath, slowing down, seeing the ball and being easy
Leaders are readers, Case shares some of his favorite books
The importance of a daily meditation and journaling practice
Asking yourself the right questions vs. always going to “My swing is off”
The story of the buffalo and the cows
Easy has a cost
Three realities for baseball, (1) endless failure, (2) endless work, (3) endless uncertainty
