He believes that experiencing adversity and dealing with negative outcomes is a necessary part of the athlete's journey before achieving success.

“i do think it's beneficial to to think on that to to have that to have that come in because you got to deal with the negatives you know you got to deal with the negatives before the pods become so you have to have that but at the same time you got to push that away”

He recommends that athletes visualize their own past successes to regain confidence and mental strength.

“i'm visualizing the [ __ ] that i've done i'm a big visualizer you know what i'm saying right before the game imagine them juices that get going you see yourself spin move stiff running guys over go in the distance what's wrong with it yeah it's a constant reminder and that's where we need to be”

Mental struggle is a real challenge for athletes, and overcoming it requires the support of positive people and a willingness to fix one's habits.

“I blocked out my family. I I didn't I was very short with my with my good friends that genuinely cared about my well-being, and I tried to take it alone head-on, and it was just worse.”
