The most successful athletes, the most successful people are process obsessed. Understanding how and why as well as embracing the challenges along the way are critical to high performance; no matter the endeavor.
We should focus on what we can control, no matter what. The process we can control. Outcomes we cannot. They are, however, the product of our processes.
Process focused individuals also have a healthier relationship with the sport as their outcomes don’t determine their success or failure – their execution of the process does. And they can always review and refine their processes. The goal for everyone is to IMPROVE and process allow for this.
