About Me

My name is Dominique Hawkins, I am a sophomore at Tarleton St. where I am a kinesiology major. I believe that encouraging the student athlete is the key to having success when it comes to sports. This blog will go into detail of now only how to encourage but how it can effect the performance of the student athlete.

As the student Athlete thinks

In this blog, It speaks of a book that was written almost a hundred years ago that is still relevant in today's society when it comes to the student athlete.The author of the book is a man named James Allen. Allen strongly believed that positive thinking can and does alter our life not just in sports but as a whole as well. It can impact and improve your game, your health and well-being, scholastic achievement and yes, it can dramatically change your life. An important quote from the book is, “Men do not attract what they want; but that which they are.” What he is trying to say basically is is that we all must start with our own thinking in order to achieve excellence on the field, in the classroom and just as importantly, in our relationships with others.
