Can sport teach you how to cultivate self-belief?

Thank you to UK Coaching for publishing my article A Journey Towards Self-Belief in the October Issue of the Applied Coaching Research Journal.

The article explores how players can apply the skills and lessons they learn through tennis to other aspects of life, and how to build self-belief through the following:
  • Cultivating self-awareness
  • Controlling perceptions and beliefs
  • Selecting your memories to build a beneficial narrative
  • Assessing the behaviour and body language of others
  • Thinking clearly on your feet when your emotions want to take charge
  • Negotiating towards a fair outcome when there is a dispute or conflict
  • Delivering a 100% effort and commitment with no guarantee of success

I’m currently working with a CEO on the management of intense pressure throughout his company’s sales negotiation process. The parallels between lessons I have learnt under extreme pressure on the tennis court and how these apply to negotiation principles are striking.
