1. What do I need to improve? 

  • Make it make sense. "Utilize strengths."

2. How can I do that? 

  • "Plan your trade and trade your plan." Practice something specific...not just practice.

3. How am I measuring improvement?

  • Think "immediacy, intensity, and intelligence."

5. Who are my mentors? 

  • "Look for the helpers."

6. How can I become a better leader?

  • Keep a "leadership scorecard." How did I lead? 

7. How have I become a better athlete? 

  • Sport rewards athletic explosiveness. Simplest? Get a jumprope.

8. Have I worked out with a teammate? 

  • Build relationships, competition, and skill.

9. What book(s) am I reading today? 

10.In this workout, commit to giving your best?
