If I find my focus wavering, I'll take a deep breath and remind myself to (re)focus.
Last night, I had a girls JV game that was a blowout and finished with a running clock. At one point in the second half, I thought my focus was starting to waver, so I took a deep breath and reminded myself that my partner and I had done a decent job with the game so far and we needed to finish the game on an equally strong note.
I also talk to myself a lot in the lead position to make sure I don't get stuck in one position or out of position.
