When we talk about competing, we tend to focus on physical aspects and technical skills, but there is one key factor that often goes unnoticed: psychology. In this article, we will explain the importance of psychology in competition and how Boosted Crew uses this knowledge to enhance competitors’ performance.
Psychology plays a key role in creating a winning mentality. Self-confidence, focus, resilience and the ability to handle pressure are key aspects that make the difference between success and failure in competition. Competitiveness in the game can generate high levels of stress and anxiety, which can negatively affect performance. This is often accompanied by a high level of pressure and expectations, both internal to the player and external, be it financial reward, the team or the gamer’s own family environment.
Psychology provides tools and techniques to effectively manage stress, anxiety, pressure and expectations. Techniques such as conscious breathing, positive visualization or cognitive restructuring. It also helps to achieve motivation and to set realistic goals: a motivated player is more likely to succeed.
From Boosted Crew we are clear about the tools that a gamer needs for the full development of their capabilities, both inside and outside the game. That is why we work in collaboration with professionals who help each booster to create strategies and mental techniques to maintain an optimal mental state during the competition. The combination of technique, physique and mind is what makes the difference on the road to success.
