Pick Something and Get Better At It!

The common approach to skill development is just to show up for the day and tick the box. For example if I go to the gymnastics class tonight I tick the box for progressing my gymnastic abilities.  

To me this isn’t making progress it is practice for practice’s sake…

In order to truly make progress towards a skill you must set an intention for the day. In other words pick a particular part of the session or thing you are doing and put all of your effort towards that.

An example for this could be to keep your feet together on every kipping swing you do in that class or to perfect the hand positioning of your handstand.

We as humans are designed to develop our skills little by little, step by step.

So make the small things big targets and watch them develop over time.
