Two runners stand side by side at the starting line of a race.Both look very strong and fast.  36  one runner speeds ahead and wins the race.The other falls behind.

Some athletes can reach great  37   such as the achievement of an Olympic gold medal.Others never live up to their  38   . What kind of  39   before a race or another event makes the  40  ?

Everyone knows that athletes work out to strengthen their  41 .But research shows that strengthening the mind may be just as  42  .Careful study indicates that the best athletes win  43  because they think they can win.

Thinking positive thoughts seems to give possibility for  44   in sports.People who say to themselves over and over, “I know I can do this, ”often find they have the  45  to win.On the other hand, people often  46 ,who think, “I can’t win.”

One procedure that helps many athletes is creating  47  in the mind.They are told to think of each  48   they must make to win.Some use pictures that are more fanciful.One skater liked to  49   a star bursting inside her,  50   her with energy.Another athlete who wanted to feel  51    pictured himself as a  52   floating in the air.

Next time you want to do something well, try training your  53   to help you.Perhaps a teacher or another instructor can help you plan your training.If you imagine yourself doing better, you may soon see  54  in what you  55  can do.Positive thinking and picture created in your mind can help you win!
