When it comes to the mental game and your success as an athlete, your inner dialogue is what can make or break you.This means your thoughts during your performance. What are you saying to yourself to encourage your performance? It has been proven that our thoughts have a major influence on our actions. This is why positive thinking usually produces positive results. There is a great movie about this power of positive thinking called The Secret. I would suggest everyone watching it.

I wanted to start this thread in hopes that others would post their successful inner dialogue here. I know in my career the better games I played, I can even today remember my inner dialogue. Here is a sample of it.

"Brent this hitter can't touch your fastball. Let's put this fastball in on his hands and watch him piss his pants."

I learned in my career the more aggressive my inner dialogue the more dominate my pitching. Please share your game time inner dialogue here.
