Moral preparation is one of the most important components of performance in sports. Players who have all the necessary skills, but are not mentally prepared, will not be able to demonstrate them throughout the game. Visualization is one of the best ways to mentally prepare.

Steps

1. 1 Start early. Preparation begins the night before the game.
2. 2 Imagine a game and then replay it in your head. Imagine doing a home run or playing a game without hits. Imagine playing volleyball or doing a great jump-turn.Imagine dribbling a ball and whistling a three-point shot; that you are the first in the passes, earn a touchdown or deliver a powerful shot.
3. 3 Don't worry and don't let anyone upset you.
   
   
4. 4 Always remain calm and focused.
5. 5 Connect with inspiring, positive people, not negative ones.
6. 6 Try not to think too much about the game, as it can make mistakes, get frustrated and, as a result, deteriorate the level of the game.
7. 7 Think about success, not failure. Think about the best times in your career and the good things you do. Focus on positive things that you can share with others. Your mind and body are one. How the body behaves depends on what the mind sends to the body.
8. 8 Relax and have fun. It is impossible to show your best side if you are too worried about how to do it. It is also undesirable to follow the principle of “crushing the enemy at any cost”. Remember how long you have been training and list all the things that you do great. However, don't relax or be overconfident enough to forget about hard training.

Tips

• Listen to music that soothes and relaxes you, followed by music to cheer you up before playing.
• Warming up is a key part of getting ready to play, so make sure you do a variety of exercises to avoid injury.
• Find relaxation techniques that work for you in stressful situations.
• Start preparing before playing.
• Make sure you get enough sleep the night before the game, but don't oversleep. Otherwise you will be tired. But don't wake up too early either.
• Determine what motivates you and makes you focus.
• While in the dressing room before the game, set aside 30-40 minutes to simply prepare yourself mentally by thinking about the game. Don't talk, just be in complete silence in the room. In this way, you will set yourself up for the game.

Warnings

• Don't do anything that you are not used to, such as some people walking and running before a game or doing races. But that will only wear you out. You must save all your energy for the game.
• When you wake up in the morning, don't do anything that might affect your level of play.
