Abstract
During the long training process and competitive activities, athletes are influenced by the stress factors. So, as a result of this influence, everyone reacts to stress individually: someone reacts to stress negatively, and someone is motivated by stress. Moreover, the quality of such reaction can be trained. Researchers have proven that the body adapts to a stressful situation, preparing to pass a test. In addition to training the body (physical component), training positive mindset (psychological component) is very important. The importance of thinking lies in the statement, based on life experience, that an athlete who is not able to conquer his mind and emotions will never rich the top of sports achievements. He always doubts his abilities, fearing to make a mistake. It seems to him that by his loss he will lose the respect of close people and let the coach down. Doubts and fears prevent a person from revealing his sports potential and reaching a new level. Tracking the sports improvement of athletes, they can be divided into two groups: those who have productive successful performances, and those who compete unsuccessfully. The real reason why some achieve their goals and others don't lies in their mindset. An athlete who has earned awards and recognition from the public is adjusting to it. Negative thinking does not arise by itself. Harsh criticism, reproaches and the lack of an inner core undermine a person's faith in his own strength. But this problem can and should be dealt with. Self-doubt can cripple even a highly trained athlete. The article includes recommendations for performing psychological exercises to strengthen self-confidence. The formation of the mindset of a successful athlete must take place personally by the athlete, under the supervision of a coach, parents or relatives, to help the athlete in the fight against insecurities and fears. If the formation of a sports mindset is taken seriously, the athlete will have high prospects for success in a sports career. Analyzed, summarized and provided recommendations for the formation and development of positive thinking will allow the athlete-combatant to build his effective psychological consciousness. The real reason why someone achieves a goal lies in their mindset. The development of positive mindset helps to solve the tasks and achieve the goal. Regular training not only of the body, but also of the mind, significantly increases the effectiveness of forming the consciousness of a winner.
