"All the time and energy you spend fixing your unforced errors comes at the expense of moving toward the outcomes you want. There is a huge advantage in having more of your energy instead go toward achieving your goals instead of fixing your problems." - Clear Thinking: Turning Ordinary Moments into Extraordinary Results by Shane Parrish
Two common traps hold players back. The first is failing to play to your strengths—losing sight of what makes you you. The second is settling for “good enough,” ignoring mistakes instead of confronting them head-on.
Know your calling card. Know your best pitch.
Especially with young athletes, focus first on what they do best. Build from strengths before picking apart flaws. Confidence grows when identity is clear.
Michael Jordan shot just 32.7% from three over his career. He’s still widely regarded as the greatest ever—not because of what he lacked, but because of what he mastered.
Be great at what you do a lot.
