In this brief motivational video, Elijah Bryant addresses basketball players who feel nervous before games. He normalizes pre‑game anxiety, explaining that a little nervousness signals caring and that anxiety stems from fearing a mismatch between expectations and reality—a survival mechanism from ancient times. Bryant advises athletes to trust the work they have put in, have faith in themselves, and view any failure as a learning opportunity rather than a catastrophe. He concludes with a call to action, inviting viewers to sign up for a free newsletter (link in bio) to learn more about limiting anxiety before games.

Are you nervous before your basketball games? Don't worry, it's normal. A little anxiety is okay because that means you care. Anxiety arises when you fear that your reality will be different from your expectations. We were built to prepare for the worst. In the olden days, danger could mean negative outcomes, and the primary concern was staying alive. Trust your work and have faith, because if you fail, you won't die, you'll only learn.
