from SAX IN THE MORNING · host Steve Sax
I would love to hear from you, just send me text and let me know what you think of the podcast.We all experience pressure in our lives. I experienced it everyday on the field as a Major League Baseball player and I experience it as a public speaker. The key to overcoming pressure is not simply ignoring it or pretending it isn’t there. The key is to not make it worse by creating undo pressure. Pressure becomes paralyzing when we start worrying about how terrible failing will be when in reality the worst case scenario usually isn’t that bad. So work hard, trust your preparation and have perspective about the potential outcomes of your situation.Remember, Sax in the Morning swag is now available on my Instagram site.
