Whatever It Takes


"The only place 'success' comes before 'work' is in the dictionary." Remember the improvement template:
  • Technique
  • Tactics
  • Physicality
  • Psychology
You don't need a lot of fancy equipment to get started. In the video, the "equipment" includes a jumprope, box jumps (a low wall could substitute), and a mat. 

"Winners are trackers." Track progress over time. The coach recommended that you track 'antenna touches'. Continually seek your PB (personal best). That works for school, jobs, sports. 

Find your catch phrase, also part of sport psychology (parameter four) of your "performance statement." Make it personal. 

"Champions do extra." 
"I do the unrequired work." 
"Repetitions make reputations."
"Competence is the antidote for fear." 
"I don't cheat the drill."  

Coach Sonny Lane reminded us fifty years ago, "I'm pleased but I'm not satisfied."

Play some inspirational workout music in the background, whatever your playlist is.
