Dealing with Abuse and Negative Opinions as a Footballer
This episode focuses on the mental resilience needed by professional footballers to deal with abuse and negative opinions from fans.
Such scrutiny can heavily impact a player's confidence and performance on the pitch. The challenges of dealing with this negativity, both online and offline, are brought up.
JJ emphasises that attempting to simply ignore or forget such abuse rarely brings about success.
Instead, focusing on personal self-belief, and shifting the focus from what others think of you to what you think of yourself is a more effective strategy.
Intriguing examples are mentioned where footballers went from being disliked to standing ovations in games after changing their mindset in this way.
The importance of increasing personal belief to balance out doubt from others is stressed throughout the podcast.
