Swimmers in the ready room need to consciously choose to focus on positive thoughts rather than negative ones to perform at their best.

“and so in the ready room all of these things are lightly in the back of your mind and it's up to you to like where are you shining that flashlight are you shining your flashlight on the negative thoughts or the positive thoughts”

Coaches should focus on the individual athlete rather than drawing all the attention to themselves during the competition.

“I feel like I like at that point it's about the swimmer and I just feel like I would want it to be about the swimmer and I think the cameras always go to him so that's my only thought on that”
