Why am I on the bench, and is that player still playing?

The beginning of the real mental breakdown of a soccer player

① sympathy

When I'm sitting on the bench

Eyes naturally go to the stadium.

The place I know well,

Where I used to run,

The space where I feel like I need to stand.

But now

There is another player in that position.

It's fine at first.

I just watch the game.

Look at the flow of the team,

Look at the tactics,

Look at the movement.

But at some point

The way you see it changes.

It's not the whole game

Only one person starts to see it.

Right now

It's the player in my seat.

② the flow of emotion

Since then, in my heart

A very short thought goes by.

"I can do that scene, too."

"Why does that player keep running?"

"Why am I sitting here?"

At first, it seems like a passing thought.

But when you start following that idea

Emotions connect quickly.

The comparison begins.

"I think I'm better...”

I'm getting jealous.

"Why does that player have a chance?"

I get resentful.

"Why isn't the director looking at me?"

At the end, it goes down to blaming yourself.

"After all, am I not good enough...”

Even if I sit still on the outside

in one's heart

A bigger fight is starting than the game.

③ Defining a Problem

The problem is not that these feelings come up.

It's not a weird thing,

It's not because it's weak.

If there's a competition

It's a natural reaction that a lot of players actually go through.

The real problem is

It's where the thought never stops.

The thought that started once

Continuing on,

Keep making interpretations,

If you start to develop your emotions

A player's mind moves away from the game.

My body is on the bench

The idea is captured by the competitor,

Your eyes are tied to the comparison, not the team,

The mind leans toward the shaking, not the preparation.

From that moment on

It's not just that the player hasn't been able to participate,

It becomes a state where the inside is being dragged.

④ Resolution

So some players

Do not allow this flow to be long.

before one's thoughts grow bigger

It's very short.

Jesus is Christ

This means

It's not a spell to force you to change your mood.

I'm not pretending to be jealous,

It's not even a word that ignores hurt.

The point is one.

It started inside me

The flow of comparison, jealousy, resentment, and blame

It's a choice that I won't follow anymore.

Before the thought drags me away,

Stop the flow

It's about reorienting my mind.

It's short

This word is

I'll break the connection between the thoughts of collapsing

It is the standard to bring the player back to the center.

⑤ Image Guidance

This is not a theory

It's a very realistic inner flow that many players go through in real games.

When I was on the bench

Why is my heart shaking,

Where does the comparison begin,

And exactly where to cut it off

I solved it like it was a real situation in the video.

👉 If you're shaking right now, check out the flow of my mind through this video first.

👉 I'm going to start to see where I'm falling apart, where I need to re-center.
