Well said, and I appreciate the responses, and that is exactly what we are doing,

I'll suggest tweaking this just a bit... "be ready for the NEXT opportunity". If there is the mindset that there will only be one opportunity, it can become extremely difficult for the player to perform. Along with "seize the moment" must come some realistic awareness that failure is an ever-present part of baseball.
