I don't understand why the philosophy of the mantra is that difficult for you to accept. Self-talk is a very valuable tool in making mental adjustments, whether temporary or permanent. I would have thought that would be just a basic psychological principle that wouldn't need much discussion. I agree that no one should adopt anything I say (or that anyone else here on the baord says) without thinking it through first. So if the OP thinks through the mantra thing, and decides it works for him, will it be okay for him to adopt it, even though you don't agree? rolleyes yourself, fella...
Guess you missed this part, huh?

Mantras to focus are good and all, but I disagree with the quick on the held ball.

So like I said, mantras are fine...well thought out mantras are better.
