Happy New Year! This is the season for those New Year Resolutions. One problem with resolutions is that they usually don’t become reality. It’s not that your resolution isn’t worthwhile, but like most other resolutions, most people don‘t follow up on them, which is the most important part of the process.
Heath clubs make a killing during this time as lots of people vow to get in shape during the New Year, spend lots of money in memberships, and then stop showing up. It can be exciting for the first few visits, but getting in shape boils down to establishing a new routine and putting in a lot of hard work. It is easy to find reasons not to follow up and have your body ache every day. Old routines are easy and don’t hurt as much!
Like the health club situation, improving your swimming skills require a new routine and hard work. It is much easier to do things only when your coach asks you to do it. The most difficult par is to do I when they coach isn’t watching or asking you to work on it.
It takes only 2-4 weeks to create a new routine. Can you imagine the rewards if you acquired all the skills your coach showed you? How many seconds could you save?
Michael Phelps would stand a chance!
Simple steps to acquiring a new skill
1 – Picture what you would look like
2 – Write it down
3 – Take action – do it every opportunity
4 – Evaluate you progress
5 – Enjoy the new you
