Teen Frisco reflects on “Gold” from Mental Management day

03.16.10

It’s not every day that you have the opportunity to sit down with an Olympic Gold Medalist and listen to stories about his experiences in the Olympics! Although I attended the Mental Management seminar last year, this year was a whole new experience for me! I learned so much more about controlling the mental phase of competition and I’m excited to apply it in my everyday life! Mr. Bassham and Heather are two of the neatest people I have ever met, and I’m so very thankful to be a part of the MPFO, because of opportunities such as this one that we are given. It was an excellent day and very productive! The four title holders got to listen to 1976 Olympic gold Medalist, Lanny Bassham talk about his experiences in the Olympics. We heard numerous outstanding stories, and then learned how to control our own mental game. Lanny and Heather both taught us so much and I know come July I will not only be physically and technically ready, but I will also be mentally prepared!

One of the coolest parts of the day was getting to hold real silver and gold Olympic Medals. Mr. Bassham was kind enough to bring them out to show to us, and we even got to take a picture with them! I will never forget that experience!

Thank you so much to Mental Management for supporting the Miss Plano Frisco Organization! I learned so much from Saturday and will use what I learned in my life every single day!

God Bless,

Madison
