· Confidence & Drive to excel
· Courage
· Communication skills
· Discipline & Responsibility / ownership of their performances
· Evaluation

· Intensity
· Monitoring (race / self / strategy)
· Positive self-image
· Routines
· Self-belief

This is by no means an inclusive list. Taking time to talk with Dr. Hale 1:1 will help you to target your strengths and which of these skill need further development. Knowing your strengths and weaknesses is an essential first step in consistently performing at your best.
Regularly working on these skills, both separately and within the broader scope of your sport specific training, is an essential part of achieving your potential.
