Yes that's what I struggle with too! If I don't watch in real time and just wait till I hear what happened, there are no nerves!....but it's very hard NOT to watch in real time lol - thanks for all the tips, I'll give them a try but I imagine I'll still be jumping around complaining how sick I feel! Then after, I ask myself why I put myself through it all when it's supposed to be fun!

I'm going to be flying across the country while the Men's FS is airing live. I debated so hard whether I should just look up the results when I land and then watch the competition knowing how it turns out. I'm gonna be brave, stay off social media during the travel day, and then sit down once I get to my destination and watch the comp as if it's live, but it was such a temptation to not put myself through that.

Dear Satellites -- I know I am beating this to death and I know some of you have already done this so thank you! Seeing how the efforts of many ppl here who emailed IOC about the profile situation and how it got them to change has made me somewhat hopeful. So if you could also take a minute to send them another email to reconsider the judging panel or at least bring to their attention about the corruption that would be really great. There is a site that discusses about the panel notably Martineze from Mexico and Maeda from Japan that will be very problematic.

And I remember many fans here have had come up with our own analyses throughout the past years so def bring those up as well if you dont mind. 

Lets act sooner than later. worst case scenario is that they dont do anything but best case scenario is they do do something. Thank you all in advance!

For me, the defining difference is fearfulness. Excitement and anxiety feel physically the same, but emotionally speaking, if there's an underlying fear of loss or of harm, then I'm anxious. If I'm anticipating/expecting something positive, then I'm excited. So to 'flip the script'  so to speak, I need to move from fear to anticipation. 'I don't know how I'll do, I hope I do well' becomes 'I can't wait to see how I'll do, I know I'll do well" .

How do you deal with failure when you accomplished that mindset? I feel a bit like I lie to myself when I say "I know I'll do well" and then I fail. Or is it the intention that there won't be the feeling of failure because I did as well as I could? (I hope my english is comprehensible.)

As a musician, I'm a huge performance psychology geek and I read in one book (Beyond Grit, I think) that instead of fearing the possibility of failure that can come with pressure, we need to view pressure as a privilege and embrace it, grateful for the opportunity to be influential in our field. It has helped my performance mindset (and general anxiety) significantly! I've also learned to not fear nerves. You're so right, often people start to feel nervous butterflies before a big performance/event and get worried that those nerves will sabotage everything or that it means they aren't prepared enough, and it spirals into uncontrolled anxiety, but the best thing to do is understand that nerves are normal and we should expect to feel nerves and be ok existing with them. Then we're free to keep our focus on the main thing we're there to do.

As Yuzu has always said, being nervous before competitions is normal and everyone experiences it. It's what you do with that anxiety and nervousness that makes a difference. As @Pianistliz has stated, Yuzu says that this pressure empowers him.

 

To address @DancingFeather concerns, Yuzu has said that failure is a part of success. Of course, you are going to feel disappointed, frustrated and kuyashi if you do not succeed, but you can take that failure and learn from it.

 

Thomas Edison said that genius is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration. Yuzu is no different. Practice makes perfect may be trite, but it is true. Obviously, you will have a much more positive attitude going into an event, whatever it is, if you have thoroughly prepared for it.

 

On the other hand, there are times that, unjustly or otherwise, your efforts will not bear the fruit that you had hoped for. This is where it is good to remember Yuzu's wise words that efforts may lie, but will never be in vain. Do not get discouraged.

 

The following, under the spoiler, are my thoughts about how Yuzu has achieved everything he set out to do.

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

I am confident that Yuzu, with his positive mindset and determination, will convert that nervous energy to power and skate perfectly clean in the SP and FS to make history by achieving his dream of successfully landing the 4A in competition and winning his third consecutive Olympic gold medal.  I am also taking comfort in "the rule of three" – that things come in threes – in this case, three consecutive Olympic gold medals.

guys, it's ISU Figure Skating that picks the judging panel, not the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee

They wrote me back - and clearly don't care to even look.

 

Dear Barbara,
 
Thank you for contacting the IOC.
 
International Skating Union (ISU) is responsible for selecting the judges of the figure skating competitions. 
Please refer to the following document for more information (point # 7).
