You Must Know How To Allow Poor Performance As A Baseball Batter

I would wager that at least 90% of everyone who reads this article will say you should never accept failure. I was in that same boat until a few years back. Like many of you, I was under the impression that accepting failure meant I was quitting and accepting mediocrity. Accepting failure meant I was motivated or dedicated enough to making myself better!

Let me explain. If you have hit around .250 for three or four years in a row, guess what, you are a .250 hitter. You haven’t had bad luck for that long, sorry! I used to make those same excuses. Just as many bloopers fall in as hard balls get caught for outs. It’s the law of averages, it’s time to deal with it!

However if you talk to most people, the refuse to believe the facts that are in front of them. These baseball players and coaches are easy to find on the baseball field. They are the ones that are all excited when things are going well and are yelling, complaining, throwing tantrums when something goes wrong! Bottom line, is they can’t deal with the fact that they just aren’t as skilled as they think they are.

Now I am not telling you to accept mediocrity or think less of yourself. I am telling you to accept the facts actively design a baseball training roadmap to better yourself. For example, if you think you’re baseball training will make you a .300 hitter, but you are really hitting .250 then you are probably going fail that with your current training, you simple are not a .300 hitter. On the contrary, if you accept that your baseball hitting training is making you .250 hitter rather than a .300 hitter, well now we have something to work with.

Here is how to fix the problem. Step 1 is to immediately accept that your performance is entirely based around your baseball hitting training and your baseball hitting approach. Step 2 is to make a list of how you could improve you baseball hitting training and approach to make yourself a better batter. Step 3, continually refine your approach down to the smallest action and repeat.

If you repeat this process every week, I guarantee your perspective about baseball will change. It will no longer be about hits and outs. Baseball hitting will now be about how well you complete the baseball hitting process. At the end of the day, your still facing an average. What can you do to improve your training and process to make you a better hitter?

Those who refuse to accept failure as part of the game, limit their potential to grow. They will never truly understand their success or their downfalls. Only when you take a step back, gain perspective, and move forward with a purpose will you have the ability to reach your baseball batting potential.
