A quick note: I know I’ve bounced around email providers and websites, I’m going to stick to substack from now on (here) to grow my newsletter and podcast as a compliment to what I do on Twitter/X.
Thanks for sticking with me and being patient!
Enjoy! - Brendan
Key Takeaways:
You can’t force a kick to happen. But you can do things that will make it MORE or LESS likely to happen.
You need a target. The mind loves high, far, straight targets. If you don’t tell the ball where to go it won’t get there.
You need a routine. Routines let you stop thinking and start swinging more freely.
You need an in between kick routine. You need a routine for how to stay level on the sidelines throughout all the ups and downs.
You need to detach yourself. Your life cannot just be about kicking. You need other things going on that you like that you draw self value from.
You need to breathe. Learn how to slow your heart rate by even a fraction in the heat of games.
You need to turn the page. Gravity won’t turn off because you missed. You can do everything right and still not be perfect.
