Subtraction

"When you remove just the right thing in just the right way, something good usually happens." - The Laws of Subtraction

"Less is more." - Historic adage

Life asks us to balance extremes, excess and deficit, doubt and arrogance, fear and recklessness. 

Marie Kondo advises getting rid of household items that don't bring joy. "Tidying is about what you want to keep in your life, not what you want to eliminate."

The perfect practice thrives on efficiency, everything directing the players and team toward success. 

The best teaching lesson includes everything the teacher wants and nothing extraneous. 

Volleyball or tennis serving allows choices between aggressive and conservative. Attackers choose among smashes, tips, roll shots and others. 

The 'ideal' offense offers more high probability attacks and fewer low ones. One team may profit from more right side attacks, setter dumps, back row and pipe attacks, while another won't. 

In your offseason routine, find the essential and eliminate the dreck. Do more of what works and less of what doesn't.
