Q:

How can athletes maintain focus and motivation during tough times?

I′ve been an aspiring athlete for years, but last season was a total disaster. I faced injuries that kept me off the field for months, and when I finally returned, my performance just wasn′t up to par. It felt like I′d lost all my hard-earned skills and confidence. During those tough times, staying motivated was incredibly difficult. I′m curious how other athletes manage to keep their focus and motivation alive when they hit similar rough patches. What strategies do you use to push through setbacks?
