On Tuesday, Monta Vista High School had the distinct honor of hosting Dr. Steve Portenga, chairman of the USA track and field committee for sports psychology and the sports psychologist who will be supporting the USA Olympic track & field team in London this summer!
Dr. Portenga is a very impressive speaker; he is able to take very sophisticated concepts and make them accessible to everyone. He talked about how to discover your own motivation, appropriate goals, and the importance of our mindset as we approach any goal, whether your goal is athletic, academic or professional.
We will be posting his presentation shortly; in the meantime, I’d like to collect some of the messages that you took away from Dr. Portenga’s talk. If you have anything you’d like to share, please send your comments to coachflatow@gmail.com. I’d like to post it with the recap of Steve’s visit and his presentation.
Thank you , all!
