The most important session is sometimes the one you don’t deliver. Recovery is easy to agree with in principle & harder to protect in practice. Recognising when an athlete is ready to absorb work & when they’re not is part of the job

The best moment isn’t always a technical correction or focus. Sometimes it’s knowing when someone is physically struggling & switching from a technical practice to a conversation. Learning, just from a different corner

1-1 goal keeper sessions this week. Question for the keepers: If you could rate yourself 1-10 (10 = exceptional) for mindset & then performance for your most recent game what would you say? #coaching#scaling#mindset#performance#goalkeeper#grassroots
An 11 yr old gk asked me this week if I thought she’d play for 🏴 I asked her: 1. Do you enjoy being a goalkeeper?
2. Are you coachable? 3. Can you recover & refocus when things go wrong? She said yes to all 3. Technique matters but so does mindset #Goalkeeper#Coaching#Mindset
Ever felt like the gap between what you bring and what’s being asked of you is starting to feel too wide?

Sometimes all it takes is someone asking the right thing at the right time. What grounds you in your work? What’s on the horizon? What are you ready to forge?

Creating a performance reset tool to align with @app_potential values that works for athletes, young keepers, leaders & individuals: RE-LEASE (drop the anchor); RE-FOCUS (Find the line); RE-ENGAGE (Next play) - crushing Automatic Negative Thoughts (A.N.Ts) #performance#mindset
A little gem from the @mindflick webinars: 💎 “I need to be where my feet are” - an eg. of working with an athlete under stress, this bought them in to the present. The physical nudge looking at their feet. Equivalent @app_potential ‘925 Performance reset’ - the Re-Focus stage
A few takeaways from @Mindflick webinars:
👉Awareness doesn’t always lead to action
👉To make changes we have to be intentional
👉Micro actions / nudges are key
👉How can we integrate learning in to work flow?
👉Where perf’ & dev’ dovetail that’s the sweet spot
