We throw the word mindset around a lot —
Especially in the hockey world.
But here’s the real question beneath that word:
What do you actually have your mind set on?
If you’re chasing the hockey dream — really chasing it —
Then your mind better be set on the right things:
✅ Dedication.
✅ Consistency.
✅ Hard work.
✅ Positive habits.
✅ Big goals.
✅ A never-quit attitude.
But let’s be real:
It’s easy to get distracted.
Video games.
Doomscrolling.
Partying.
Bad habits off the ice.
Negative self-talk.
Comparing yourself to others.
All those things chip away at your dream…
Because your mind is where it all begins.
So here’s the challenge:
Take a brutally honest look at what you’ve been focusing on.
It won’t be easy.
It might sting.
But truth is where transformation begins.
And the truth?
Hockey exposes what your mind has been set on.
You’ll see it in your shifts.
In your preparation.
In how you respond to adversity.
The game doesn’t lie.
And neither does the mirror.
So today, take a deep breath.
Look yourself in the eye.
And ask — what’s my mind really set on?
If you don’t like the answer — change it.
It’s never too late to shift.
And your destiny is still waiting for you.
Keep nipping.
Keep gnawing.
Keep clawing.
All the way.
