DG Warriors Character Traits of a High Level Athlete
"MENTAL TOUGHNESS"
Being mentally tough as a person and as an athlete means you can remain under control and focused under the pressure of everyday challenges. Setting short-term and long-term goals gives you a direction to mentally focus on achievement and success. Remaining resilient, poised and in control is necessary as you work to meet your goals. As an athlete, not breaking under pressure and not getting frustrated when your team needs you the most is an important characteristic to possess. In everyday life, do you remain focused on your school work and long-term goals and stay tough mentally when the going gets tough? Can your family, friends and teammates count on you to be there mentally in crunch time?
Boston Celtics Hall of Famer Bill Russell said, “Concentration and mental toughness are the margins of victory.”
