Whether you will achieve your goal in a competition by doing a really good time is a matter of mind and how easily you can focus on your goal. Too much stress, too many expectations, your fear of opponents or just a pair of glasses that it breaks before the race, they are some of the reasons that make you not concentrate on the race.

We need to realize that we cannot make everyone happy, because this excessive responsibility increases our stress and saps our energy. The most important thing is to have faith in ourselves, avoid pushing or judging ourselves too harshly, and stay focused on our goal.
TEN WAYS TO ACHIEVE IT
#1. Build on the essentials of the sport, lay a solid foundation and try hard.
#2. Set short-term goals and avoid thinking about too many things at once.
#3. Always keep a positive and optimistic attitude and have full confidence in yourself. You have no reason to worry, since you are doing what you love and you are ready to achieve your goal.
#4. Control your thoughts. This will help you chart your own course.
#5. Remember how good you felt when you performed your best, the moments before the race and the relaxation techniques you used to achieve it.
