Speech on the topic -- Knowing One’s Strengths is Important for Success in Sports

your question I'm guessing is about writing a speech so ima do that lol sorry if im wrong

mental strength is nearly as important for players as physical fitness. Pressure can get to the best sports stars and mental training is therefore a vital skill to possess. Imagine that elite performance is about creating a perfectly circular wheel with spokes shooting out from the hub.  The spokes represent all the different elements needed to create peak performance.  This includes physiology, tactics, strategy, mental skills, conditioning, nutrition, and physiotherapy.  In essence all of these spokes combine to create a perfectly round wheel which runs efficiently. The New Zealand All Blacks used this analogy. However, in working on all of these different elements they found they couldn’t achieve the big breakthroughs they wanted.  So, they re-thought their approach to mental skills. They questioned, are mental skills really a spoke, or are mental skills more important than a spoke? If mental skills are more important than a spoke, what do they become instead? They reasoned, mental skills become the hub of the wheel and the breakthrough was made.
