“Practice makes perfect.”
What kind of practice?
“Deep Practice”
Daniel Coyle
The Talent Code
Deep practice:
1) Look at the task as a whole
2) Divide it into its smallest possible chunks
3) Put the pieces back together
4) Repeat
At Home● turn it into a game
“if it can be counted, it can be turned into a game”
● practice vs. progress
“never mistake mere activity for accomplishment”
● 5 min a day vs. two times a week
“practice on the days you eat”
At Home:
“end each practice on a positive note”
“don’t waste time breaking bad habits - instead, build new ones “
“stare at who you want to become”
“buy a notebook: results from today; ideas for tomorrow; goals for next week”
At Home:
“positive framing”
center the stroke vs. don’t pull this putt to the left
“professional athletes are professional nappers”
90 min naps ---> 10% gain
