A lot of you guys think too much. Does anyone here watch the new ESPN series "Playmakers?" Well, the quarterback of the Cougars is having problems with his game. He's not making passes accurately, causing interceptions, fumbling and generally losing more confidence with each play. So what does he do? He tries to adjust. He gets back on the field and thinks about not throwing an interception, only to throw one again.
This is many of you. Hell, some of you won't even get off the bench to play the game.
So our quarterback here loses the game and then takes all week to think about it. He comes to the conclusion that he's setting himself up for failure by constantly thinking of what not to do wrong instead of just playing the damn game.
Does this ring a bell? You guys know the plabook (the DJ bible, mASF, etc). So go out there and play. If you throw an interception, learn from it and keep gunning.
After winning the next game a reporter asks the quarterback what was he thinking when he threw the game winning touchdown. He replies, "nothing." What he meant was that all the years and weeks of practicing, playing, going over game tape, etc got him ready for that one moment. Instinct took over, his mind was clear, and he performed.
So stop youself for a minute when you find that you're second guessing yourself in the middle of the game with women. Quit wondering if she likes you or not and score! If you're reading this then you're practicing. Now go out and play.
