Competitive Gaming & eSports
“I believe that gaming is not about defeating our opponents; rather, it’s about discovering the depth of our internal greatness.” Zoltan.
Take Your Competetive Gaming and eSports to the Next Level
So many people are not just playing games casually anymore, but are really looking to constantly improve their gaming skills. Like any athlete who takes their sport seriously they want to improve.
Gamers wanting to become more competitive generally range from the 12 to 30. This age group can greatly benefit from sets of mental skills and habits that can be readily acquired. These can also determine one’s confidence and successes later in life.
The most difficult part of mental preparation is not the discovery of certain key thoughts, but to draw clear conclusions and to build them into our daily life and habits.
Becoming more proficient in Gaming as in any sports can take you into the big leagues. Today eSports is multi billion dollar industry and is much more than just simple gaming.
As long as we consider eSports merely play of some sort, it will remain as such in our minds. It will only become a sport when we recognize its depth, when, during a contest, we not only try to beat our opponents but ourselves, too, and conquer our internal boundaries.
Players in eSports and Gamers in general that want to become more competitive are interested in honing their skills beyond endless playing physical exercises. Exercise and technical preparation can contribute to about half of one’s improvement in performance. The other 50 percent depends on the player’s mental preparedness and momentary state of mind.
At Ascension Therapy Clinic when we examine the human mind, and even just while considering behavior patterns and the keys to success in eSports, the client can have profound self awareness.
Thoughts and patterns of behavior on the surface can reveal deeper emotions and motivations. These discoveries in turn can help the Gamer be more honest with themselves and provide a clearer vision about their true goals with an clarity and simplicity.
No matter where we come from or who we are, the potential of winning is hidden within us. Beyond the physical exercise, we must also get to know our mental processes in order to help us mindfully prepare for the next challenge.
A personalised programme of hypnotherapy and CBT enables you to understand and enhance your mental processes, and realize your own potential and hidden resources to really take your competetive gaming and eSports to the next level.
Pro Tips for Improving Your Gaming
Pro Tip 1:
Self Awareness
Be critical of your own play style! Most people have a tendency to blame everything on everyone else, and that is a major hindrance if you want to improve. Next time you play your game of choice, and it does not go our way, analyze what went wrong. If we actually begin to look inward and realize our own mistakes, there are generally so much room for improvement.
Pro Tip 2:
Have Fun
You need to not forget why you play video games in the first place, to have fun. While playing well and getting better is important, don’t do it at the expense of having fun. Gaming should be fun, even when you are trying to get better at a certain game. Sure, it might get frustrating at times, but always be sure to bounce back.
A positive attitude will also help you play better, as it will be tough to improve if you have a toxic attitude and are unwilling to make changes or accept that certain things you do might be wrong.
Go into each gaming session with positivity in mind, and try not to let what happens during the game deter you from that. We all rage from time to time while gaming, but it really doesn’t do anyone any good.
