Our world is ever evolving, and with that evolution comes another change to this blog. I have often toyed with the best way to utilize this space, wanting to use it to inspire, motivate, and overall better people’s lives.
Being Calm Under Pressure
Love him or hate him, reigning NFL MVP and Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is the shining example of “calm Under Pressure.” Listen in as I explore exactly why Rodgers gives off the aura of calmness needed to succeed in any situation, along with my own experience receiving feedback in this same competency.
But it’s not enough to identify this skill—how do we cultivate it?
I apply another sports philosophy in its simplest form to show you how to cultivate calmness under pressure:
Practice.
How do you practice this? Putting yourself in challenging and uncomfortable situations, on purpose. Be it mental, emotional, physical or otherwise, this is how you develop this trait.
