To be successful in sports, work or school, the power of the mind is essential. These tips on how to perform well will help you focus your energies and thoughts on achieving outstanding success and results. Then, you can go further and improve the performance of an entire team.
Steps
Method 1 of 2: Good Performance Under Pressure
Step 1. Learn to manage stress
Although some types of stress cause adrenaline to be produced and therefore help to perform well, it is essential to know how to control the physical effects of tension, or your body will not hold up. Make sure you find a relief valve. Try exercising, volunteering, meditating, or watching YouTube videos.
Step 2. Try to understand what are the things you cannot control in every situation
Then, try to fix the ones you can control instead. Refusing to waste time on aspects that elude you improves mental stability, and therefore performance.
Step 3. Replace negative thoughts with positive ones
Even if changing your thinking is difficult, try repeating yourself a mantra, such as: “Take risks, avoid fear”, “Be positive, patient and persistent”, “Focus on what really matters”.
Step 4. View success
Think about what you will go through to overcome an obstacle, and overcome it. If you can see the benefits, it will be easier to perform well under stress.
Step 5. Focus on your strengths
If you are a sprinter but need to travel a longer distance, your aim will be to be in the front all the way until you can sprint and overtake them. Improve these skills whenever you can.
Step 6. Stay motivated
Create personal goals if your coach or company doesn't give you incentives. Try small goals and, if successful, more important and long-term ones.
Step 7. Adopt a ritual
If you feel particularly good in a specific suit, or shoes, wear them when you have to do an important performance. An excess of "magic" can lead to superstition, but a little superstition helps you feel more secure.
Step 8. Deal with failures immediately
This is the best way to avoid losing trust. Become emotionally strong, learning your lesson after each fall.
Step 9. Commit again after failure
Repeat the above steps to have the right mindset for future performance.
Method 2 of 2: Create a Success Team
Step 1. Choose the perfect team for you
He must be able to collaborate smoothly and appreciate healthy competition. However, members must always respect each other.
Step 2. Create collective goals, but also individual goals
Team projects allow for team incentives, but make sure all members are interested in them.
Step 3. Let the team know how success will be measured
The pre-established purposes must in fact be monitored and reported.
Step 4. Be honest about the strengths and weaknesses
A team can work by following them in a homogeneous and united way.
Step 5. Encourage the team to create a strong bond
An occasional aperitif or dinner can encourage members to support each other and achieve more important goals.
Step 6. When necessary, exclude someone from the team
If a member isn't working well, give him a chance to correct himself. However, if the situation doesn't change, tactically rule it out.
Step 7. Select a leader or let others choose him
This person must be able to take risks and reward members for their extra work.
Step 8. Let the team members work independently, without controlling them too much
Having created an excellent team, individuals are able to work alone, which makes them more confident. Think again if the performance isn't good.
