Dan Abrahams

Dan Abrahams breaks down why players choke and it's not about talent, it's about ants.⁣
⁣
High importance plus high uncertainty creates Automatic Negative Thoughts, and those ants are silent killers. Tunnel vision, slower anticipation, worse decisions, and physical execution that falls apart in milliseconds.⁣
⁣
I think every competitor watching this recognizes the feeling immediately. The best players aren't the ones without ants, they're the ones who've learned to squash them before they take over. #shorts
