We don't come with a handbook is true.

We are born and no one knows what to do with us and as we grow most of what we do is figured out along the way.

So let's take the time away from the Coronavirus and get our minds focused on something else. Let's create a handbook for our future.

There is so much we don't know. That's why we go and learn, we copy those who have gone before us, we read books, listen to podcasts and audio books, we watch videos and consume as much as we can because we want to know what to do and how to do it. And of course how to get there!

And that's why I wrote my book FOCUS... to give you a guide, what to do, how to do it and how to get there. www.tiffanymika.com/focus

Everything we go through;

IT IS ALL A PROCESS!

That means that whatever we go through, it will be a process that we have to work through. Sometimes we are not sure of the process as it unfolds as we go along... but it is still a process.

There is so much information out there in the world telling you what to do, how to do it and how to get there.

But what they don't tell you is HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE!

No one prepares you for that.

It is explained in much greater detail in this episode however let's develop your process... your handbook for the future. And we will do this in phases. Yes we can put a time frame on this but if you don't accomplish what you set for yourself, just be aware that the phase you are working through may take longer than anticipated.

So the answer there is to - KEEP GOING!

5 PHASES

Phase 2

Phase 3

Phase 4

Phase 5

If you think more in phases it gets you more focused on what you have to do in these phases. And yes you can put a timeframe on it but, if you don't accomplish in the timeframe...

JUST KEEP GOING UNTIL YOU GET THERE!

So let's begin on those 5 Phases!

Remember in Phase 1 you were going to sign up for the Successful Athletes Masterclass because you were going to identify your current level.

Go to www.tiffanymika.com/sam

I look forward to seeing you there.

Have an absolutely awesome day and remember, Dream Big, Believe In You & Go After Your Dreams.

The world has been hit by the Coronavirus and we are moving into lockdown mode. The borders to many countries are now closing. No one is traveling. Events are closed down. There are restrictions to how many people can congregate in one area and there are many precautions to take.

And people are fighting over toilet paper in the supermarkets!

What Is The Coronavirus?

Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that cause respiratory infections. These range from the common cold to more serious diseases.

COVID-19 is the disease caused by a new coronavirus first reported in Wuhan City, China. It can range from a mild lillness to pheumomnia.

Some people will recover easily and some may get sick quickly.

It has symptoms such as;

Information taken from www.health.gov.au

What Can You Do ?

It's important that you take precautions.

The question then becomes do you stop living your life and pursuing your goals?

The answer is - no!

First, it is sensible to follow the information that has been recommended and be sensible.

Second, don't get caught up in the fear. This craziness has occurred because people are acting out of fear, fighting over toilet paper and stable foods etc. It is the fear of the unknown as this virus and it's capabilities are unknown and havent yet been fully determined.

Third...

This is the perfect opportunity for you to work even harder or should I say more strategic on your sport. Highly likely your team training sessions have been cancelled including your tournaments and competitions. Therefore you have a chance to work on improving your techincal skills and mental skills.

You can be creative here, for example;

There is plenty to do here. It's about taking this opportunity to develop yourself further as an athlete, as a player and as a person.

Don't get caught up in the fear.

Take Control!

You can't control what is happening around you but you can take control of what you do.

What You Can Control

Remember what you focus on expands. If you focus on the negatives then it will bring up doubts and fears.

If you focus on what you can control then get out there and go for it.

Have you signed up for the Successful Athletes Masterclass?

How could you use your education to conquer your sports goals?

How do they relate to each other?

You will be surprised.

If you are struggling to get through your work at school or college and study there is a great principle to use called the Pomodoro Technique. It's a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo in the 1980's.

This technique uses a timer to break down your workload into smaller time intervals.

I have tested various time intervals to be productive. I have found that when I have a big project I am working on, or I am heavily invested in a course that I am studying etc, what I have found that works best is to work for 45 minutes and then take a 15 minute break.

What works well is that we work well in time frames, we work better to deadlines. Hence if you have a time frame that you are working in, you are much more effective and much more efficient.

What if you can't get motivated to do work on an assignment or you have a paper due and you just can't get yourself to work on it?

Then do it in smaller chunks of time. Try doing it for 10 minutes. You will say to yourself "yeah, 10 minutes, I can work on it for 10 minutes!" If you think about it you have 1440 minutes in the day so 10 minutes will be a breeze!

So how does this help you with your sport?

To work this way it teaches you;

How you are with one thing is how you are with everything.

3 Steps to Conquer Your Education

And by doing it this way trains your mind to focus!

POWER TO YOU!

Never let anyone dicate to you your future.

The short reason is because you are the one in the drivers seat and you are the one who is control. Your destiny is in your hands.

The long reason is this, firstly we have our goals set for the future and we know what we want to accomplish. We athletes we are a different breed;

So when someone is not on the same wave length as you and they don't think the same way as you, they don't get it. They ask questions like;

And you know what, that's ok! They don't have to think like you do, they are not wrong they are just different, just as you are different to them.

But what happens when your coach makes the decision that you are not good enough for the squad?

What happens if they make the decision that your pathway to becoming the athlete you want to become is over? And you have only just begun?

What do you do?

This is explained in greater detail in this episode.

However get this message clear today!

If you are not getting the results yet;

There is not just one strategy that will be the answer to your goals. There will not be just one coach who will be the answer to your goals.

It will be a series of;

There is not just one way or one method.

The message in this episode today is NEVER LET ANYONE DICTATE YOUR FUTURE!

If you are struggling to perform in competition the way you know that you can, the first thing do to is to get feedback from your coach.

Have a meeting with him/her or them and find out what you need to do to improve and bring out your best performances.

But what happens if your coach doesn't give you anything concrete that will help you?

What do you do then?

Because it is easy;

A constant struggle because you don't know what to do because you aren't getting the guidance.

This is where we have to change your approach because it will be easy for you to fall into that mental space of;

It's time for you to take control back into your game, it's your responsibility to become the athlete you want to become - the best athlete you want to become.

This is an area that comes up constantly. I have had a number of conversations with athletes about it.

This is the athletes I have spoken to their current process of going after their goals;

They keep pushing until they hit a point. And that point could be an injury or exhaustion.

What happens when exhaustion occurs;

What happens when an injury occurs;

Injuries can be caused from;

When we get to that point we hit burn out!

Keep trying to work through the burn out whether you are exhausted or injured will not improve it will only get worse.

There is this saying FEATHER - BRICK - TRUCK! (more information about this in today's episode)

The point with this saying, is that do you ignore the warning signs before it's too late or do you take note and change what is happening?

It won't be the many long exhausting hours that you put it that will give you the breakthrough, it will be the strategies and the quality of the effort that will get you the results.

Here are are 4 Steps To Stop The Burn Out!

1. Take an Aerial View of Your Life and Your Sport

**2. For the Actions That Are A NO - what do you need to do to change it?

3. Devise A Plan

4. What Areas In Your Sport & Mindset Are You Going To Focus on Improving?

Do you find that you crush it in practice?

Yet on game day you can't compete at a high level that you know you are capable. It's not that you don't work hard because you do. You work your butt off!

But why can't you crush it in competition like you do in practice?

There will be a number of reasons however, we are going to focus this one. And that is that you don't practie under pressure.

What I mean by that is that you don't simulate pressure experiences that come up during competition therefore you don't know how to deal with it.

When you don't know how to deal with pressure situations that arise in competition you don't know how to deal with it.

What happens then?

Therefore your performance level drops. This drop in level of performance strems from a series of sequences.

This is broken down and explained in much greater detail in this episode so make sure you listen to it.

However there are two major areas that we need to check in with when dealing with pressure!

What else can you do?

Practice Pressure Situations! (again this is broken down and explained in greater detail in this episode).

You show up to practice, you give it your all!

You work hard with your team and in practice you absolutely crush it!

Yet you still don't get picked to play on game day. You sit on the bench and watch your team mates compete.

What thoughts run through your mind when this happens?

What do you do?

The worst possible thing that you can do for yourself is to stay in this mindset as it will be destructive.

Here is a 2 step plan for you below;

Step 1 - Meet with your coach and ask questions.

Step 2 - Devise A Plan.

Now get to work!
