When "good enough" starts to slow you down.
Do you feel like you wake up with no real direction for your training? Instead of deciding on what to do, do you find yourself doing nothing more often than doing something? You're not alone.
Making clear decisions is important not just for our training energy and goals, but also in all aspects of our lives.
If you want to work on your habits around mental skills and stress, then work through the steps of the habit loop.
As you set goals for the new year, don't just make them S.M.A.R.T—make them S.M.A.R.T.E.R.
If you frame the mental challenges you're feeling in a certain way, you'll come out the other end of this season as a better overall athlete.
