The Power of Imagination: It’s Not Just For Kids
When we were young, imagination wasn’t entertainment. It was training. When no one was around, we invented games, invented opponents, invented teammates, and created moments so vivid we could feel the wind, the pressure, the crowd. The winning free throw wasn’t a fantasy—it was a full-body rehearsal. The impossible catch wasn’t a wish; it was a moment we had already lived a hundred times in our head.
And then we grew up.
But the skill didn’t disappear. The shot we actually hit. The pass we actually completed. The catch we actually made under pressure wasn’t random talent. It was a memory our mind created before our body ever experienced it.
We didn’t call it visualization. We didn’t need a guru or a seminar. We just imagined it. And imagination expanded our courage long before we could spell “confidence.”
Think Like a Champion
I spoke about how to train your mind to overcome the setbacks that come with baseball and life. While speaking to the baseball players, I was looking at the parents because the techniques I teach can be used between the lines and in life.
Think Differently
Today, I see people getting caught up in THOUGHT BOXES. A THOUGHT BOX is where one becomes so stuck in one way of thought that they can’t think differently. Because of their education, they have been taught by people who have never been “in the field” to see if what they are teaching actually stands up to real-life situations.
