Sport Psychology - Minimising Interference


PERFORMANCE = POTENTIAL - INTERFERENCE

What does this mean? Well, your sporting performance is dependent on two crucial factors. These factors are your potential (ie. ability) and any outside interference.

You can control you Potential but you are less able to control any external interference. However, to achieve Peak Performance the Interference has be minimised.

Interference at sport could be the weather conditions, a poor pitch, opponents trying to psyche you out......you know the things that get to you!

So, focus on how you can minimise any Interference before you perform and your ability will shine through to achieve your optimum performance - every time.
