It can take a long time to understand how to perform in sport using the term ''Playing like it means nothing when it means everything'' attitude. For the decade that Roger Federer dominated the men's tennis world he had this mind skill and when Fernando Torres was playing football at Anfield he too had this gift but recently Fernando Torres has begun to look like a shadow of his former self. How can somebody with his talent and price tag of €50,000,000 just start to play badly.
Well it all comes down to that famous line ''Playing football like it means nothing when it means everything''. In other words Torres is not relaxed when he is playing football for Chelsea and even in the latter part of his Liverpool career he began to show signs of his form dipping. I bet that in practice Fernando probably wipes the floor in 6 aside training at Stamford Bridge and probably nets a few times in training but he cannot replicate his training form into a match in the Premier league or Champions League. The reason I believe is because he is nervous and has lost his confidence. It didnt happen overnight but started to happen at Liverpool. Only he can change this pattern and he will have to start doing it rather soon otherwise his career will come to an end quickly. He needs to relax and train his mind into thinking he is playing a training game and that it is not important. Otherwise the pressure will build and Mourinho will start getting nervous himself and then the relationship will break down.
So if you play Golf, GAA, Soccer, Table Tennis or any sport you can adopt this approach. I can honestly say that it worked for me. Try it and good luck!
