For gate-keeping purposes, it's common to see football tactics journalists roll out lines like "no real coaches use this type of terminology and jargon" etc etc.
So here's Francesco Farioli talking about neg-entropy, order, chaos, positional play and relationism. 🤓
Rory McIlroy shares one of his favorite mantras and mindsets.
"One of the things that I love is focusing on the process over the prize."
"I would say to myself a lot: 'Process over prize. Process over prize. Process over prize.'"
"Just to take myself away from the outcome."
Own the process and focus on what you can control.
Then he mentions what happens to all of us:
"I can get real caught up in the outcome. I just really need to remind myself that the outcome will ultimately happen if you just focus on the process. It takes care of itself."
Everyone loves outcomes, very few love the process.
It means focus, discipline, consistency, and relentless commitment.
It doesn't matter what you want, it matters what you are willing to consistently do.

Spurs are a live case study into the pitfalls of "structure-first" recruitment.
Organizational structure takes precedent over people. They're optimizing for hierarchy, not for the best possible hire. Structure doesn't make decisions, people do.
Cookie-cutter job specs are the inevitable result. By design, the odds of finding a true difference-maker (A-player) are low because the best people don't fit into boxes, which is what makes them the best people.
now imagine this on a brain where the prefrontal cortex has barely started developing, where dopamine sensitivity is an order of magnitude higher than adults, and every neural pathway is being wired from scratch in real time
thats a toddler with an ipad
giving a 2 year old short-form video is for all intents and purposes indistinguishable from giving them cocaine.
same reward pathway, same dopamine hijack, zero executive function to regulate it, and a brain that won't even finish developing before being irreparably compromised
ipad kids are brain damaged and the parents who did it to them for a "quiet dinner" (read: lazy) should be treated exactly the way we would treat anyone who gives cocaine to toddlers
Ik zoek voor morgen nog tickets voor Palmeiras - Fluminsese en ik kom niet door het ticket sales proces van Palmeiras heen. Iemand een idee, hoe ik alsnog tickets daarvoor kan fixen?
“In their book Soccernomics, FT columnist @KuperSimon and economics professor Simon Szymanski ran through several data sets on English football in an effort to quantify the importance of a manager when it comes to results. The findings were stark. On their reckoning, just 1 in 10 football managers had a statistically significant positive impact on points won.”
Do football managers really matter? https://t.co/RWlnJdjlv6 via @ft

Do hard things. Because there’s nothing better than a hard-earned win. The pain. The struggle. The grit. And then, the reward. The feeling of knowing that you paid the cost of entry for the thing you wanted to achieve. Hard things are good for the soul.
A massive new study on peak performance included 34,000 international top performers: Nobel laureates, renowned classical music composers, Olympic champs, and the world’s best chess players. It shows early specialization is a trap, and the road to greatness is long and varied.
Een interessant artikel voor @VI_nl PRO geschreven ✍️🏼
Over hoe een v/d grootste trainerstalenten momenteel (Filipe Luís) het Z-Amerikaanse voetballandschap verovert, geïnspireerd door de ideeën van een nieuw soort voetbal: het relationisme.

In zes jaar is het aantal rijksambtenaren met 38 procent gegroeid. Ondertussen groeiden de personeelskosten van rijksambtenaren met 69 procent. Ten tijden van grote arbeidskrapte lijkt het me onverstandig dat de overheid als een dolle mensen aanneemt.
