Hitters: do less. Not less work. Keep working hard.
Do less thinking in the box. Think outside the box, then get back in, breathe and attack.
Swing with less effort. When you maximize separation, you lift your butt off, and you have early rhythm in your swing, you don't have to swing with so much effort. Try 90% effort in your swing.
Watch less TV. Watch less Netflix. Drink less soda. Curse less.
Don't be the guy who cries at the end of the season. You either busted your tail and earned what you got, or you didn't. We all have to work hard just for the opportunity to succeed.
Now do more.
Read more. Invest in your hitting approach! Read books on the mental game, hitting approaches and self-improvement. Change your attitude about books and you can become a life-long LEARNER !
Here are 3 can't miss books:
9 Innings of Hitting by Troy Silva
The Mental Conditioning Manual by Brian Cain
The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy
Hit more. I mean hit. Not swing. Get someone to throw to you. Have them throw hard. Have them throw breaking balls. Go to the batting cages and get in the "FAST" cage. Take your own bat. Be that guy.
Don't be average. Average sucks.
Watch more YouTube. Did you know you can learn how to fix a flat tire or tie a bow tie on YouTube? Did you know you can watch endless videos on hitting approaches, hitting mechanics, hitting drills, interviews with big league players and managers with priceless soundbites on their experiences? FREE.
I know you know this. So do it!
It's the START that STOPS most people!
