How to achieve difficult goals?

When a person plays padel, she often faces her own limitations, as a good player who wants to improve has to achieve pretty high goals.

Here are the 8 tips:

  1. You have to consciously think about whether the goal is possible, but difficult or literally impossible. At first, many players are frustrated and hurt their self-esteem because they have inaccessible goals. Have big goals, but also lots of little ones to subconsciously say that we are progressing.
  1. Think from the current perspective, not the future perspective to evaluate your sport goals. You need to determine what resources you have today, and what is your level of play.
  1. Difference between mind and reality. On many occasions the mind imagines that things are more difficult than they really are. Therefore, start your action plan by repeating the first step on the difficulty or not of the objective.
  1. Find the reason why it is important for you to reach this goal, and stay focused on it.
  1. Don't let fear ruin your goals. Fear is an expert in boycotting the talent, and dreams of any player. Therefore, we have to face them. The most common fears among gamblers padel are fear of not being good enough, fear of failure, inferiority complex, etc. However, a player can overcome their fears through work, training and relaxation, and through positive thinking.
  1. If a goal is more difficult, you need to devote more time, focus and dedication. Therefore, do not have excuses, and work. If a goal is more difficult, you will have to spend more time, but that's not impossible.
  1. Respect your rest time to regain strength and enjoy life in general.
  1. Celebrate the small goals you have achieved to achieve higher goals in the long run.
