Step 6: Technique

Step 6: Technique = Tools
Perfecting your Performance In Your Life and Business Forever!
Last month I shared the fifth step in the Perfect Performance Success System with you, Teamwork.
This month we are focusing on Step 6: Technique.
High achievers understand that there are many roads to Rome. And yet they know that by mastering a select few skills they increase their chances of becoming competent in them.
And it's this mastery, which gives them a greater chance of success than trying to perfect every single skill available to them.
Step 6 is based on the skillful utilization of your tools.
In track and field, everyone loves to see someone perform at a world record level. And we are amazed to see how they make what they do look so effortless and graceful. What you don't see is the hours of practice, commitment and dogged determination that was required to create that spectacular performance.
The "fastest man in the world" is a coveted title and it all starts with their thoughts. They had an idea that they could be great. This turned into the belief that they were great and gave them the drive to practice to become great. And it is through this repetitive process of consistently performing an activity over and over again that they become great.
If you go to the track and watch a 100-meter sprinter train you would be shocked by how repetitive their days really are. Day in and day out, they are performing dynamic movements, starts, running accelerations, striders, running at max velocity, working on technique, performing plyometrics, getting into the weight room, and taking care of their body among many other things.
They have to push the envelope, improve their capacity, improve their coordination, perfect their technique, develop the skill, improve their synchronization, expand their capacity, and refine their motor patterns in such a manner that they are able to produce results with seemingly no effort.
That's the mark of someone who has mastered a technique!
So choose the tools you want to develop wisely. Then move into practice so you can perfect it.

Remember...
Success is not by chance, It is by Choice!
