Scoring an open-net goal should be easy, but it’s not.
It’s the dream, there is no opposition, no complicated shot needed and all you need to do is drag it in with a little tap.
And yet we miss so many of them.
We become hyper-focused on not missing because it should be an easy goal, it should be a guaranteed gimme but instead, we forget everything we have practiced up until that point – the shot we have taken a thousand times and we do something different, something we are stressed over, something else.
When what we need to do is the thing we have done a 1000x before.
