Quote by Luana Marques

“The opposite of living a life driven by emotions, goals, or other people is a values-driven life. A values-driven life is one in which your values function as the internal compass guiding you toward and helping you define your goals in life. To live a values-driven life is at times much more challenging than being led by our emotions, goals or other people because it means we have to face our avoidance, identify it and often recalibrate our lives toward what matters most to us. To do so, you will have to make decisions that in the moment might lead to more discomfort but will yield more long-term fulfillment.”

These stressors will be compounded by the athlete’s personal life and the stress they carry into these performance situations. Overall, athletes will get gripped by stress, whether in a championship game or a mundane practice.”
