MY COMPASS™
Where does confidence hold — and where does it become conditional?
My Compass™ gives athletes a structured, private way to understand how confidence operates across different developmental conditions — and what changes when pressure rises.
The Five Confidence Layers
Belonging & Emotional Safety
"Do I feel safe, connected, and like I belong here?"
Courage & Risk-Taking
"Can I act even when I might fail?"
Insight, Competence & Mastery
"Do I understand and trust what I can do?"
Visibility, Identity & Self-Leadership
"Can I speak, lead, advocate, and be seen?"
Impact, Purpose & Direction
"Do I understand where I'm going and why it matters?"
PRESSURE OVERLAY
Then we ask a different question.
What changes when the stakes rise?
Pressure is treated as a separate overlay rather than another Confidence Layer — because what changes under pressure reveals the most important developmental information.
PRIMARY CONFIDENCE CONSTRAINT™
Finding the pattern beneath the score.
My Compass™ does not simply label the athlete's lowest score as the problem. The Primary Confidence Constraint™ examines the broader pattern to identify the developmental condition most likely to be limiting confidence.
My Compass™ is developmental and non-clinical. It is not designed as a psychological diagnosis or athletic-performance predictor.
The Athlete Development Loop
Confidence grows through evidence — not slogans.
MOVE
"What did I do?"
EVIDENCE
"What does this show me I can do?"
NEXT
"What's the smallest useful next step?"
