Intrapersonal Effectiveness
Kuvakäsikirjoitus Teksti
- One day after football practice...
- Hey Harrison, how have you been?
- Not so good
- What's wrong, is it football?
- Yes, I just can't seem to do anything right for Coach Malone. He has it in for me
- Do you think it is all the coach or could it be something you're doing? Maybe more how you are feeling about yourself.
- What do you mean? Do you think I'm imagining things?
- Not necessarily. Why don't you go get changed and we can talk about it
- While in the locker room...
- Sometimes you need to be aware of your own strengths and weaknesses. Do you ever set goals for yourself?
- I'm sure there probably are things I could do to try and get better. I have been having a pretty bad attitude lately.
- Why don't I hit the gym with you and we can talk some more about some ways you can improve your attitude and self-perception. This could help in how coach views you.
- Meanwhile at the gym...
- You just need to remind yourself what a good player you are. There is a reason you were recruited for the team. Using self-talk can increase your confidence and help you remain positive. It's called intrapersonal effectiveness, I'm learning about it in class.
- I do seem to get in my own head a lot. I tend to let the coaches negative perception of me make me feel bad about myself when I know I am one of the better players on the team.
- Next time you're getting to feeling down on yourself, just remember to trust your inner voice and remind yourself of your football goals. Don't let anyone else's perception change that.
- Thanks Ryan, that is some good advice. I need to trust myself and be more aware of when I start getting negative.
- A week later on campus...
- Hey Harrison, so how's the intrapersonal effectivess going?
- FLETCHER HALL
- It's really working! The coach told me it looked like I was enjoying myself more and that I seemed more relaxed. Most importantly, I feel better about myself. Thanks again Ryan, see you around.
