A Sweet Spot

Recently, I️ finished The Rock Warriors Way. In this book, I️ found a trick that changed how I️ climbed and my approach to anything difficult. The trick is that, whenever you see a hold that you question its positivity, always tell yourself that the hold will be terrible. This works because if the hold turns out to be a bad hold (sloaper, pinch) than you will be prepared. However, if the hold is a huge jug, you will get a pleasant surprise. This basically forced me to imagine every hold horrible so I️ wouldn’t fall off because I️ thought the hold would be better. This trick helped me. I️ hope it helps you!
