Great performers forget their last play and focus on the next one. Average players get stuck replaying past mistakes and successes. A short memory and present focus keep you moving forward instead of trapped in what already happened.

The past is where you find depression. The future is where you find anxiety, but it's the present where you are the most grounded. The biggest difference between the average players versus the great players is one thing. The average players continue to look at the last play. They dwell on the past. They think about what happened. I missed that shot. I committed a foul over here, and now that's on my mind. And what happens when you think about the past all the time is that it's kind of depressing, right? Now, the great players, they're constantly looking at the next thing, the next play, the next play, the next play, meaning that they have a memory of a goldfish. They forget. Forget about what happened and they move on to the next play. By doing that, you're able to kind of continually look ahead and you're just not gonna let your mind get ruined by all the bad things or all the good things that might have happened.
