You are not shooting against a score.
You are not directly shooting against other shooters.
You are not shooting for the approval of others.
Your value as a person is not determined by how well or how poorly you shoot.
You are shooting one shot at a time, the best way you know how.
Great outcomes are the result of committing to the process of your performance.
The more you let go of the “need” for something to happen, the more likely it is to happen.
Bad Shot.
A bad shot is information, not identity. Learn from it, then let it go.
Dwelling on a mistake costs you two shots: the one you just took and the one you're about to take.
Confidence isn't the absence of bad shots — it's trusting your process even after one.
Focus
Your mind can only truly focus on one thing at a time — make that one thing the shot in front of you, not the last one or the next one.
The last shot is over. It cannot be changed. The next shot doesn't exist yet. All you have is this one.
Distractions (wind, noise, other shooters, a bad call) are not the problem — your reaction to them is.
