"“Success,” say Scott and Pelliccioni later in the same article, “comes only when technique has become habit.” Creating the good habit, we would say, is the first success." (H.A. Dorfman, The Mental Game of Baseball)
Disappointment and Acceptance
"Purposeful practice is all about putting a bunch of baby steps together to reach a longer-term goal." (Anders Ericsson, Robert Pool, Peak)

You need to be a world-class athlete. If the left leg is pinching, then you can be disturbed.’ Gun, ammunition, stance? Bullshit, he said. If you’re not strong, it won’t matter." (Abhinav Bindra and Rohit Brijnath, A Shot at History)
I love the sound of fresh air pistols in the morning #cdf2022
"To effectively practice a skill without a teacher, it helps to keep in mind three Fs: Focus. Break the skill down into components that you can do repeatedly and analyze effectively, determine your weaknesses, and figure out ways to address them." (A. Ericsson, R. Pool, Peak)
"The law of accommodation reminds us that mistakes are the stepping-stones to success — a natural part of the process. Trust the process of your training and trust the process of your life." (Dan Millman, Body Mind Mastery)
