The psychology of choking

Many thanks to my dear friend Leslie Brackenridge whom sent me this excellent article published by BBC Sports, a few months ago, about "choking" in sports.


The Psychology of Choking describes with total clarity what happens when a player faces pressure and his brain circuits get "switched" over from the automatic, intuitive, unconscious mind over to the conscious or "beginners" mind.

And a very interesting final conclusion: As the famous NIKE slogan.......you JUST HAVE TO DO IT !!!!!!!!!
