Soft focus is the ability to have a relaxed focus, one where you don’t need to be completely focused on the task, but you will need to be soon. Soft focus is needed during a performance between sets or periods of action (e.g., between serves in tennis, between innings in baseball, and between plays in football). If you aren’t able to soft focus, that means either you’re not focused at all, or you’re too focused and won’t be able to maintain it over the entire performance. Either way, you’ll run into problems without this skill.
