A Mnemonic device is a pattern of letters to help memorize phrases, ideas or keywords. I have created some mnemonic patterns of my own to help with frequent issues faced by athletes, such as fear of failure, loss of motivation, and performance anxiety.

DANCE-  jumpstart your daily motivation

Determined- what is your purpose? What are you waking up for, who are you waking up for?

Appreciative- giving recognition to what you have, be it abilities, relationships, materials.

Navigate- create a directional guide of how you want your day to go and take control of every step you make 

Confident- build it, positive self-talk, just know you can do it.

Excited- be happy, do everything with passion and enjoyment.

ROAR!- overcoming anxious feelings

Recognize-what it is that has made you anxious, stressed or uncomfortable.

Organize- a plan to lessen or extinguish a stressors relevance to the task, objective or goal.

Accept- that the stressor is present.

Respond- by committing to the task, objective or goal rather than the thought of outside, unvarying elements.
