“How to Avoid Negative Thinking”
🧠 Because your mindset matters as much as your muscle.
This week on Sideline Sessions, we’re diving into the mental traps student-athletes fall into—and how to break free.
💥 What’s inside:
✔️ Common cognitive distortions (like all-or-nothing thinking & jumping to conclusions)
✔️ Real examples + how to reframe the thought
✔️ Questions you can use to challenge negativity
✔️ The real-life impact of unchecked negative thinking
✔️ How to support a teammate who’s struggling
It’s not about ignoring failure—it’s about training your brain to think like a champion.
