How often in sport do you see an athlete make the wrong decision under pressure? Often I’d say! Even at the highest level in elite professional sport. Indecision, overthinking, paralysis by analysis, having too much time to think of the consequences, a lack of trust in skills or fear are often the reasons for poor decision making.

In this short bite-sized episode, Paul Phillips an author and culture developer and I discuss overthinking in sport where we share some helpful tips so that you can deal better with pressure in the moment.

Key Learning Points:

  • Helping athletes generate behaviours before thoughts and emotions is a helpful skill.
  • James Clear’s two-minute rule in the book Atomic Habits is a useful approach to take when you are feeling indecisive.
  • In rugby the size of an opponent can trigger fear responses, overthinking and poor decision making.
  • Visual, kinaesthetic and auditory cues and triggers are helpful in overcoming fear,
  • Using metaphors such as images of animals or superhero’s is a helpful trigger for adults and children.
  • Spending time with process training, practicing and rehearsing pre-shot and pre-performance routines are hugely beneficial.
