Ep 334 Reset Faster — The Habit of Elite Performers After Mistakes

Mistakes are inevitable. The best athletes in the world miss shots, strike out, throw interceptions, lose matches, and make costly errors. The difference isn't whether mistakes happen—it's how quickly they recover from them. In this episode of Today Matters, Coach Steve Pinkston teaches one of the most important mental performance skills in sports and life: the ability to reset. You'll learn why elite performers don't waste energy dwelling on mistakes, how to build a powerful "Recognize, Release, Refocus" routine, and why your response to adversity often matters more than the adversity itself. Whether you're an athlete trying to bounce back after a bad play, a coach helping players regain focus, or a parent supporting a young competitor through setbacks, this episode will help you develop the habit of recovering faster and performing better.
