A New Year!!

Will Kirousis

a new year! How to stay focussed?

When we hit January 1, it seems like people are always fired up to make big changes or get after new goals.  That’s great!  It’s a super thing to help increase motivation and focus, and that’s good.  At the same time, there is a reason gyms are packed January 2 but much less so February 2 and about half as much by March 2.  When you look at the year, think about using days like Jan 1 as tools to help keep motivation rolling, but also reminders to look inside.  What experiences are  you after with sport?  What do you want from sport and your participation with it?  How are THOSE things motivating to you?  Write that out, and place it in a spot you will see often.  This helps you keep on track, motivation sustained based on what you want from sport.  THAT is going to help you stay on track, even when life would otherwise cause motivation to fade.  Have a super year!
