Skill takes time to build. Talent takes time to nurture. So if you want to perform better right now, there's only one way: Feel more confident. Everyone's been there. We don't need research to confirm the more confident we feel the better we perform.Reference: Simple Tricks to Immediately Boost Your Confidence.
Make a conscious effort to sit up straight or stand up tall. To nix negative thoughts, have a positive self-affirming statement ready and say it even if it's just quietly to yourself.
T'ai Chi posture is one of relaxed, internalized but unmistakable confidence. We stand straight, but not locked or rigid. We imagine that a string is holding up our head at the topmost point, and at the same time we are rooting ourselves to the ground and tucking our behind to stretch and straighten our lower back.
T'ai Chi is also about following the Tao of Nature, and that way is naturally centering and calming and, yes, positive.
