Your Game Plan for Success
I was giving a talk to some parents and athletes the other evening on the topic of creating a game plan for success this season. One of the points I mentioned was that I am pretty confident that one day you won't simply wake up with a college scholarship or a pro contract and say to yourself, "Wow, I wasn't expecting this, how did it happen?"
Athletes who are successful create their success without accident. They have a plan, and that plan drives them to work hard while others are sleeping in on the weekends, or taking 5 days off this Thanksgiving! This is not to say that you can't enjoy yourself over the holidays, and stuff your face with turkey, potatoes, and pumpkin pie. But I am suggesting that if the thought of moving through the holidays thinking that you will get busy on the other side (Jan 1st.) is going through your mind, my bet is you have no written game plan guiding your practice.
I'll send you a nice recipe for setting a working and living game plan after Thanksgiving. But through this next week, consider the following question in preparation for creating your personal game plan for success this season.
QUESTION: What am I going to achieve this season?
This is a big concept! It's meant to be so. Here are a couple ideas. Hit .500, win 10 games on the mound, lead the team in RBI's or HR's, make fewer than 7 errors in the field. Whatever you think about, make sure it's BIG. Not ridiculous, but BIG.
