In this episode of The Daily Drive, we dive into the P.A.C.E. Model—a powerful framework to help athletes navigate moments when they feel overlooked or held back, like when you’re not starting.


We’ll break down each step of the model:

Prepare: Focus on what you can control and mentally rehearse for the role you’ll play, even if it’s not the one you expected.

Adapt: Learn how to adjust your mindset and expectations to stay positive and productive, regardless of your current situation.

Compete: Master the art of staying locked in, maintaining focus, and showing up with intensity, no matter the circumstances.

Evaluate: Use the experience to reflect, learn, and get better, positioning yourself to be ready when your opportunity arrives.


This episode is for athletes who are dealing with setbacks and need to shift their mindset from frustration to preparation, so they’re ready to seize their moment when it comes.
