Oct 16 Tip: Passion. Purpose. Success.

• Skill acquisition is one ingredient to success
• But successfully dealing with frustration and adversity is another ingredient to success
• Mental toughness is another important ingredient to success
• Passion and Purpose for me is THE KEY INGREDIENT to success
• When you are shooting at the goal you are not only shooting at that target you should be shooting for reaching your goal, both literally and figuratively shooting for a target
• And on the literal side ALWAYS SHOOT WITH A PURPOSE, TO SCORE
• PASS WITH A PURPOSE, No ” HOPE PASSES” meaning hope it makes it to my teammate
• I want every kid to DEFINE THEIR GOALS FOR THIS SEASON NOW
• Clearly state your goals and dedicate yourself to achieving them
• Write them down, parents and kids together, both short term and long term
• Do you want to play in college? Where do you want to play? Watch that team play on the tv or the computer
• Be a student of the game, watch your favorite college team’s power play, penalty kill, goalie
• Write down how best to achieve them
• Getting to sleep earlier? Set a bedtime and stick to it
• Drinking more water? Set a goal of daily water intake and drink it
• Planning the week together, homework times? tests? quizzes? games? bedtimes? Staying organized and focused will help with your hockey and academic goals
• DO NOT BE AFRAID TO SET LONG TERM GOALS
• Set The ULTIMATE GOAL
• VERBALIZE THAT GOAL
• When can you fit in a little extra training time?
• 10 minutes here, 15 minutes there that works! Don’t have the mindset that I don’t have time today to spend a half hour for self discovery so I will skip extra training, instead all of those minutes here and there DO ADD UP
• Stickhandling in the house with a tennis ball, 100% will improve your hands
• Wrist Gripper in the car-your wrists NEED to be strong in hockey
• Washing your equipment? Cleaning out and vacuming the car for your mom and dad? Small victories feel good and help you on your way to your ultimate goal
• Helping out a teammate on or off the ice, with hockey or homework
• Talking to teammates on the ice leads to success
• “Stick down” ” Behind you” “Got it. Awesome pass. Thank you.” ” I am right behind you.”
• The only thing you deserve is what you earn
• Passionate athletes don’t make excuses, they learn from shortcomings and failures
• Oh, yah and Prove them wrong
• Whoever the “THEM” is in your life
