Description

Welcome to The Football Mindset Podcast, hosted by Elite Football Mindset Coach John Johnstone. On this podcast you’ll hear about how to play with more confidence and deal with the fears, doubts and over thinking that come as a result of other people’s opinions. What you hear will be drawn from his experience of working with players who have played in competitions such as the English Premier League, Champions League and International tournaments. Every episode is recorded with the aim of maximising your mind to maximise your chances of playing at the very top level and getting the monetary rewards that come with that. The mind is what separates the good from the great. How long will you continue to allow yours to hold you back?
