What is a Daily Focus Journal?
A daily focus journal is a written schedule or goal. It may include specific achievements, progress and necessary actions needed. The serious contenders I know, who are finding the success they deserve are completing a daily focus journal. Every night they are listing three to five things they did that day to progress their tennis career.
The key words are “Every Night.” Success is not a random act. It comes from a preconceived set of circumstances. It’s planned. If our child needs to gain confidence, help them by tackling their organizational skills.
FUN FACT: Choices Equals Consequences
Examples of daily activities that could be listed in a Daily Focus Journal include:
- Playing a match
- Fixing a stroke
- Stringing their racquets
- Watching tennis on TV
- Working on between point rituals
- Working on how to beat a pusher
- Finding a new doubles partner
- Finding practice matches
- Doing 200 push ups
- Doing sprints
FUN FACT: When real preparation meets opportunity, success will follow.
