When you try harder and become consciously aware of your actions during a skill-based task, you disrupt the automatic neural processes that enable smooth performance, causing you to 'choke'; the best performers achieve excellence not by trying harder, but by reducing conscious interference and allowing their skills to operate automatically.

This Is Why You Choke When It Matters #performance #psychology #personalgrowth #neuroscienceAdded:
Trying harder is what throwing you performance. When you suddenly become aware of what you are doing, you choke.
That's not pressure, that's interference. Skills don't need thinking, they run automatic. But the moment you try harder, you take manual control and break the system. That's why the best performers look effortless. The best aren't trying harder, they are interfering less.
