How to have consistent forward progression & Growth
If you want to maximize your potential and be the best soccer player you can be, you need to be learning and expanding constantly. Being a growth-minded player requires a great deal of self-awareness and the ability to objectively reflect on your game and yourself as a person. Being open-minded, pursuing new and different ways of doing things and then taking ACTION is what sets you up for consistent forward progression in your game. Accelerating your growth happens when you seek feedback, ask questions, and get invested in your development by becoming a student of the game.
True growth-mindset and motivation can be difficult to cultivate at times because they require you to have patience for the process. They require you to focus on getting 1% better each day and keep pushing forward with perseverance even when things get hard and you don’t see results. Mental toughness, self-belief and discipline are key components of both growth-mindset and authentic drive and motivation.
Heres’ the really important part, without growth mindset there is very little chance that you will reach the top of the game because innovation and lifelong learning are necessary components of achieving that level of success. The best players, coaches, and teams understand this. They know that they need to constantly be learning, adjusting and adding to their toolbox in order to be the best. Feeling motivated now? We are too, let’s go!
