We've all been there.
That moment when you have prepared for everything, and you keep on thinking so many things even when you are ready.
People see me as a bit of a cool man. Which is a bit odd because clearly I am the contrary. To calm myself down on so many different occasion, ia always rely on one thing.
Do what I do best.
Or just do whatever it is that makes you feels comfortable.
Take an instance when I play cricket. Because I play down the order, its always apparent that I will be batting when the team is in trouble.
Slowly, when the wicket down, I picked up my gloves and my bat, and make way to the middle to replace the other guy.
When I first played cricket, I had no doubts in my mind. Just hit whatever balls that comes my way. As I grow older, I learn to be a bit sensible. Trying to get assurance that I'm building the right basic and that I am in control.
Which is why I like to play forward defence when I come in.
Naturally, I don't like playing with front foot. I always tend to find the back foot is easier to control and timed. Being that, I keep on pushing myself to play that perfect front foot defensive shot every time I come in.
I don't know why.
3 out of 4 times I nicked the ball, both not out, the keeper didn't catch it, it was risky, yet I keep on doing it.
Its as if its just my ritual, like I said to myself "okay that shot is over and done with, let's get on playing naturally".
It takes pressure off, although, in a silly way. Way that I dot like, but keeps on doing it because it felt good.
The way, I keep my cool.
