Goals, Habits and Results

Goals alone don't produce results. Habits link goals to outcomes.

Identity is key. Atomic Habits author James Clear explains how "habits are votes for the kind of person we want to become." Want to be a great student?  Improve study habits. To be an elite athlete, build skill, strength, and conditioning.

Write your plan. 

  • Skills such as platform skills, digging, setting, approach footwork
  • Jump training. Get baseline measures (e.g. chalked fingertip) followed by your training and followup. Choose exercises you will do (lunges, squats, pogos, bounds, jump boxes). Followup testing. 
  • Conditioning. 

'Consolidate' habits.

  • Be a tracker.
  • "Don't miss twice." 
  • Find a workout partner to help motivation and skill.
