Aaron Judge's Mental Toughness

Feb 11, 2025
 

Lessons:

• You can do everything right & still go 0-4 with 4 lineouts. The game is inherently set up to make you fail and test your patience/resolve. 


• This game is also relentless. It does not go easier on you if you are having a bad day. It is consistently hard. 


• The only thing you ever have direct control over is your response to adversity. How do you act when the games beats you up? 

  • Do you make excuses? 
  • Do you complain? 
  • Do you hide from the spotlight? 

The next time you are faced with frustration, doubt, fear or anger on the field, remind yourself that it's all part of the game. The adversity gives you an advantage over everyone else who is weaker than you.

BRING IT ON. "I want the challenge. I want to show everyone I am unstoppable."
