Goals fail because players focus on outcomes.
Elite athletes focus on actions.
Instead of:
"I want to make the A Team."
Focus on:
Fields:
| Action | Category | Frequency | Completed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gym Session | Physical | 3x | ✓ |
| Skills Session | Technical | 2x | ✓ |
| Recovery Session | Physical | 1x | ✓ |
Formula:
Completed Actions ÷ Planned Actions
Example:
12 completed
15 planned
80% completion rate
Success = 80%+ weekly completion
Not perfection.
Consistency wins.
Create reflection habits.
Elite players constantly review performance.
If I were my own coach, what advice would I give myself?
This develops self-awareness.
