Tips to Maintaining Motivation

Maintaining motivation to strive towards success can be difficult. After a long, hard season full of work it can be easy to let your mind wander off the path of success. Here are a few tips to help you stay motivated:

  • Write down your goals, place the list of goals somewhere you will see them every day. Every time you see your list of goals you will be reminded of what you are working towards that day. Writing your goals on a sticky note and placing them on the bathroom mirror is a great option!
  • Write down motivational quotes, place them throughout your house. Similar to seeing your list of goals written down, finding quotes that keep your mind on track is a massive help when it comes to motivation. Again, I would suggest using sticky notes for these as well!
  • Reassess your progress frequently. Sometimes if we have a big, overarching goal it can be difficult to lose track of the true progress we are making. If we focus on the little things as we are moving forward, suddenly the big, audacious goals become more attainable. Make sure your checking in on yourself!

There are plenty of ways to stay motivated, these are just some simple tips to make sure we are taking care of business. Remember, always strive towards moving forward!

As the season wraps up, and many tryouts conclude. Now more than ever is the best time to develop your off-season plan! Take a break from the game and look big picture and move through your off-season with detailed intention. 

  • Put your plan on paper
    • What are your goals! How are you going to accomplish them? What does your plan look like?
  • Attack your weaknesses
    • Stay positive, but be honest with yourself – what needs to improve in your game to get you to the next level? Turn your weaknesses into strengths! You’ve got 5+ months to do something about it!
  • Prioritize your mind + body
    • Take care of your temple! Nutrition, rest, mental breaks – these are all part of your developmental process not only in the sport but with your growth as a great student-athlete!

Remember, a goal without a plan is just a wish! Speak your goals, dreams, and develop into existence!

We can’t wait to get your game to the next level this off-season!
