I am a really relaxed official. I could probably take a nap five minutes prior to the game. However, I believe you need to be mentally ready to go. I use the 15 minutes on the floor prior to the game to get me prepared. I agree with Rich that you better be ready for issues on the jump ball.
I think some officials struggle early because they are too uptight. If that is the case, work on relaxing prior to the game.
I think officiating is like my golf swing--the more I think about it the worse it gets.
