DAY 8: GETTING PUMPED!
Getting mentally ready for a big game, or test, or conversation, can be a heavy lift. Make it the fun part of high-pressure situations:
AGENCY
Agency is having control over your life and future. Know what works for you, grab it before big moments.
MOOD
Your mood is how you feel. What is the mood you want to be in now? When you're under pressure?
MINDSET
Mindset is thinking. What do you need to be thinking when you are IN the big moment, game, test?
We made a playlist of all songs submitted by AU Futures players. We'll continue to add to it so send more in to [email protected].

YOU PUMP ME UP
AU PRO Goalkeeper and Michigan grad Mira Shane interprets the pump up note that AU Futures Player Sierra Darling submitted.
This it motivation. This is connection. This is lacrosse. This is girl power.
(So cheesy, but YOU ARE PUMPED, right?)
Watch Mira's TED Talk:
The power of finding your most authentic self
She sings. She beatboxes. She makes you laugh and gets deep, all while being HER most authentic self.
LEGENDARY PUMP-UP
Chris Sailer just retired after 36 years as the Head Coach at Princeton University with 3 National Championships and 17 Ivy League Championships.
She is known for a lot of things, but INSANE pre-game and halftime pep talks are her thing.
WHAT DO YOU WANT
TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?
We asked. You answered.
