The Hard 90 With Zach Sorensen

You can either feel sorry for yourself because of the situation or you can learn from the situation.

Don't let one small moment in your day cause you to throw away the rest of the day. Take a deep breath, get back on track, and stay focused on what matters most.

How you fell does not dictate how you will perform.  If you are not feeling your best, get in the habit of acting different than you feel.

They are not called first reactors, but instead, first responders. Before you have an emotional response, assess the situation, gather information, and ask yourself what is the next best move.

Thank you Dr Ken Ravizza for teaches us the analogy of recognizing your signal lights as a way to maintain our emotional control.

Green = Dialed in

Yellow = Distracted

Red = Defeated

Before you react to any situation, pause for a moment and ask - "What is my next best move?" 

If I were playing right now, I Would Be A Wristband Guy.  Changing wristbands help you to flip the switch.

How do you go from a tough event to a new event? Flip the switch. Be so in control of your emotions that you can flip the switch at any time to allow you to be your best.

As we complete our mission, emotional reaction always follows. In between execution and emotions is a gap that needs to be mastered. It is here where you gather information and decide if you should go emotional. Master the gap!

In his book titled “Above the Line,” Urban Meyer uses a formula to discuss this topic. He says that E + R = O. The event that takes place, plus the way you respond to that event, equals the outcome. You can't control the event that is taking place, but you can always control the way you respond to it.
