A Coaching Reference
To have a Fight ON! Mentality, you need to focus on the NOW. This means being mindful, a mental state which is achieved by focusing one's awareness of the present moment and being engaged with one’s surroundings, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations. You will learn how to meditate and relax and recognize challenges before they happen. You can use meditation and mindfulness to help bring clarity, calmness and concentration to your mind. When faced with challenges, you must stay in the present moment so you can block out distractions, navigate adversity, and perform at peak levels. Staying in the NOW is always staying in the moment, while not worrying about the past or future.
