Athlete Pro Development

Who are the athletes that are in high demand?

Athletes that have:

1. Professional Maturity

2. Mental Resilience

3. Emotional Intelligence

4. A High Level of Character & Integrity

Today, professionalism is required more than ever from amateur athletes. This is why developing mental and emotional intelligence is essential. In this era of "pay-to-play" amateur athletics, college coaches simply don’t have the luxury of waiting for athletes to mature. With their jobs on the line, they need players who are already prepared to meet high expectations and contribute immediately. The responsibility falls on the athlete to take their personal growth seriously and align with the demands of college coaches and the programs they aspire to join.

The CBJATHLETE is dedicated to bridging the gap between talent and success by prioritizing mental and emotional training—often the missing link to unlocking an athlete's full potential both on and off the field. By focusing on mental resilience, character development, and the relentless drive to operate at optimal performance, we ensure our athletes not only meet but exceed the expectations of those offering them opportunities to succeed.

Goals for our athletes are to:

1. Be the student, athlete, and person any college program would want to a chance on

2. Be ready to contribute day one at the next level

3. Have the skills and awareness to gain trust from coaches

4. Unlock intangibles that separates them from the competition

5. Create opportunities on and off the field that makes them not expendable

High School & College Professional Development Workshops

Transfer Portal College Athletes

High school athletes have fewer opportunities to play at the next level because of the transfer portal and eligibility changes. Addressing character flaws and maturing issues now is the difference between getting that chance to play in college and keeping it.

Making the decision to enter the transfer portal is a very difficult one. Effectively processing why things did not work out, events that require taking personal responsibility, and understanding where there is room for growth ensures the next stop fulfills your goals.

Today, college programs are facing turnover in rosters every year. The challenge to build team chemistry and buy-in is the difference from having a winning season or one that can go south quickly. Addressing issues that affect professionalism is necessary for every athlete to adopt for personal and team success.

The CBJATHLETE 3-prong approach for Mental IQ succes

Provide relevant connection for honest open lines of communication

The first step to gaining any control over mental stumbling blocks is the willingness to embrace honesty and your truth.

Access reality and introduce new and empowering perspectives

The second step is a full assessment of the reality of events and digesting what is true/false, productive/unproductive, and what is or is not valuable. This information enables us to be open to new perspectives and more effective strategies to stay at peak performance.

Build and train the character required for sustainability

The third step is transforming our current character into our best self through discovery of identity, purpose, and community. This growth in character increases our awareness and confidence to prepare, confront, and dominate the threats against our performance from adversities we face everyday.

Benefits of Character & Personal Development

Proactive defense against mental & emotional challenges

Getting ahead of situations that challenge us is how we ensure that our character will not be negatively impacted. By applying what we learn from both our strengths and weaknesses, the right strategy can be used for a better outcome during confrontation.

Self Empowerment over things we cannot control

How we handle things we cannot control reveals who we really are. Vetting our approach and the decisions behind them, provides clarity for how to develop new habits. Being comfortable in uncontrollable situations gives that power back to us.

Authority in situations where others deem impossible

The impossible is a breading ground for fear. But it also can be a fertile ground for positive change. Developing character skills that stands firm against relentless opposition opens doors to leadership.

Confidence to make right choices

Repeating the same mistakes is a huge character flaw. Not growing from those mistakes is even worse. Personal and character development is vital to build that bridge from a place of ignorance to a destination of self awareness to make right choices.

Builds a positive identity and self esteem

The evidence of our character consistently builds our identity. By shaping our identity with new character skills, life changing impact will continue to be made on others as well as our self esteem.

Trust from others

Trust takes a long time to build, but a short time to be destroyed. Character development is important to establish that consistency required to earn trust from others.
