The phrase “It all depends on your mind” applies to achieving goals in sports, business, and school as well. This guide to performance can help you focus your energies and thoughts so that you can put on an outstanding performance and achieve success. After that, you can continue to hone high performance in a team.
Step
Method 1 of 2: Showing Performance Under Pressure
Step 1. Learn how to deal with stress
Even though there is stress that can trigger adrenaline and boost high performance, you must be able to deal with the physical effects of stress, otherwise your body will be in trouble. Find a way to release stress that works best for you, for example by exercising, seeking support from those closest to you, meditating, or watching videos on YouTube.
Step 2. Identify the things you have no control over in your daily life
After that, respond only to what you can control. Your mental stability will improve which can improve your performance if you don't waste time dealing with things that you have no control over.
Step 3. Replace negative thoughts with positive thoughts
While changing your thinking isn't easy, try repeating mantras over and over, for example, "Take risks, don't be afraid," "Always positive, patient, and persistent" or "Focus on what's important."
Step 4. Visualize success
Imagine what it would be like to rise to a challenge and make it through it. If you can clearly see the benefits to be gained, it will be easier for you to perform under high stress conditions.
Step 5. Show your strengths
If you know you are a sprinter, but you have to run long distances, your strategy in this race is to run a little ahead until there is a chance to sprint. Continue to hone this skill every chance you get.
Step 6. Maintain your motivation
Set your own personal goals if your coach or company is not setting up a good incentive program. Make a short-term plan, and also prepare a long-term plan if your short-term target has been achieved.
Step 7. Perform the ritual
If you feel more confident wearing a certain shirt or shoe, wear it whenever you want to show off your performance. While excessive "magical thinking" can lead to superstition, it can add to your beliefs if you don't overdo it.
Step 8. Deal with failure immediately
Building emotional resilience is the best way to prevent loss of confidence by trying to learn the lessons behind every failure.
Step 9. Recommit yourself after a failure
Repeat the steps you've taken to get your mindset back in the right frame of mind so that it can support your next performance.
Method 2 of 2: Forming a High-Performing Team
Step 1. Choose a team member with an “A
“They have to be able to work well together and like healthy competition, but they have to be able to respect each other.
Step 2. Define common goals and individual goals
With team goals, there will be incentives for the team, so make sure that everyone is interested in these incentives.
Step 3. Communicate how to measure success to all team members
The objectives are determined by the accuracy of the comparative studies and reports submitted.
Step 4. Honestly acknowledge each other's strengths and weaknesses
A team can complement each other and build strength through unity.
Step 5. Encourage your team to be more cohesive
Get-togethers or dinner together can sometimes encourage team members to support each other and be willing to fight for a big goal.
Step 6. Ask someone to leave the team, if necessary
If there are team members who are not able to show their performance at work, give them a chance so they can improve it. But if they don't want to work hard or can't work well together, find another assignment that's more suitable for them.
Step 7. Choose a leader or let members choose their own leader
Ideally, this person should be willing to take risks and be willing to reward team members for their hard work.
Step 8. Let the team work independently without too much direction
The team you have formed of high-performing members will be more empowered if allowed to work independently. Reconsider this policy if the team's performance fails.
