“Deal Hope!”

• When you go negative, it gets better 0% of the time.

When a player messes up = they look around

• “the most important 3 seconds.”

  • Build them up
• 3 Steps to get your teammate back to positive:
  • Acknowledge your teammate who is struggling
  • Interrupt your teammates negative thought process
  • Replace your teammates thought with a good & useful thought

*Comes down to you getting to know what works for your teammates & delivering that message to them.
