You can go for days at a time with everything seeming to go right, until all of a sudden everything seems to go wrong. You don&#8217;t hit your pace, you get hurt, or just anything does not go the way you hoped. How you react to troubled times is defining and can be an excellent teaching moment. Here are a few ways you can react when tough times come calling.<\/p>\n<h2>1.

Don&#8217;t let anything get the best of you. So much more goes into your performance at the end of the season than one practice, one race, one training camp. When one thing goes wrong, there is still so much more that can go right if you can react in the right way. The rule on our team is you have five minutes to be happy or sad about a race, and then it&#8217;s time to move on. If you do your best to limit your time spent on the extreme emotions, you can move on and not ruin everything else because of the one bad thing.<\/p>\n<h2>2.

If you are having a bad practice, there is always something you can be doing right with your technique, even if you are not necessarily swimming fast.

Overthinking takes a problem or a struggle and makes it a million times worse. You get caught up in yourself and think things are way worse than they actually are. No good comes from beating yourself up when you do not deserve it. Sometimes things are hard, and sometimes you struggle. At that point the best thing to do is accept it and keep pushing rather than making the reality of it much harder on your self by over analyzing.<\/p>\n<h2>4.
