Why do i get in my own way?
Some days, you feel locked in—reading spin early, attacking in the infield or on the mound, playing loose. Other days, it’s like the game is completely foreign.
Your timing is off. Your confidence is nowhere to be found. Everything feels rushed.
This isn’t a talent problem.
It’s not a reps problem.
It’s not a mechanics problem.
It’s a mental game problem.
THE TRUTH ABOUT BASEBALL AND CONFIDENCE
Talent gets you noticed. Work ethic keeps you in the game. But the guys who actually stick at the next level?
They have one thing in common: certainty.
- They don’t ride the emotional rollercoaster.
- They don’t let bad at-bats, bad rounds, or bad days shake them.
- They don’t need outside validation to know they’re a dude.
They’ve trained their minds to compete with total belief—no matter the situation.
Most players never figure this out. They spend their careers hoping confidence will “just show up” when they need it most. It won’t.
Confidence isn’t something you wait for. It’s something you build. It’s a STATE.

- Won a national championship with Southeastern University in 2022
- Multiple years of studying in the personal development space
- Started helping athletes with the mental side of the game in 2022
- Have helped tens of thousands of players build a stronger psychology over the past 2 years

In the fall of 2020, I was in a car accident that led to surgeons telling me that I could never play the game of baseball ever again. Because of my background in personal development, I refused to give up over those next 5 months. After talking with 7 different surgeons across the country, I finally found one who said he could get me back on the field. Fast forward another 6 months, I started at 3rd base for the #1 NAIA program in the country. Because I grew up with the principles we are teaching on this platform, I was able to come back and perform right away, even if it was for just a little while.
The principles and tools we are giving you in this course will not only help you in your playing career, but they’ll help you with every other aspect of life!

As a confident player, I found my identity solely in baseball, having grown up in poverty without models of success.Â
In 1997, desperate to support my family, I discovered personal development. The transformative ideas I encountered shattered my worldview and helped me break free from a cycle of fear and limitation.
Without a college degree, and with a growing family, I committed myself to changing my mental blueprint.Â
Over 27 years, I dedicated myself to personal development and the science of achievement, gathering and refining ideas, principles, and strategies.
For 14 years, I’ve applied these insights to baseball, accumulating over 10,000 hours in mindset development.
I’m also a partner in The Well Dressed Window, a successful portfolio of Hunter Douglas galleries in Illinois and Nashville.

WHY WE BUILT THIS
Between the two of us, we’ve spent 40+ years in the game—playing, coaching, and working with thousands of players.
We’ve seen it all:
🔥 Players struggling to make travel teams
🔥 Players trying to perform at PBR and Perfect Game events
🔥 Players grinding for exposure in front of college coaches
🔥 Players competing for time at the Division 1 level
🔥 Players dealing with slumps, injuries, and pressure
And we’ve also seen what separates the 4-5 guys who actually stick at the next level from the 95 who fade away.
We built The Focus Forge because this kind of training has never existed before.
If you’re tired of riding the confidence rollercoaster and want to train your mind like the best do, this is where you start.
