We’ve all seen it: Two equally talented athletes. Same training. Same coaching. Same opportunities. Yet one consistently performs under pressure while the other crumbles when it matters most.
What’s the difference? Self-esteem.

In sports, we obsess over the physical: strength, speed, technique. But here’s what champions know that others don’t – 90% of peak performance is mental. Your mind and spirit don’t just support your physical abilities; they amplify or sabotage them.
Self-esteem isn’t just about “feeling good.” It’s about developing the resilience to bounce back from a tough loss, the courage to take on a new challenge, and the confidence to perform at your best when it matters most.
