Just Win Today
You don't have to save the world.
You just have to win today.
It's no secret I listen to John Wood on matters
of strength and training. He is one of the most
diligent students of the strength game you'll
find on the planet. He's also a student of what
it takes to be a winner.
I hope he's still not mad the University of
Florida beat out his Wolverines for the right
to play Ohio State for the national title in
football back in January.
I met John at an explosive Matthew Furey
seminar in Tampa about a year and a half
ago and knew right off he had the goods.
John exuded a confident enthusiasm that
was well-grounded and solid as a rock.
And with John there's no hype. Just results,
and what you see is what you get. John's
gone and written something recently I think
you'll want to hear.
And rather than put it in my own words, I
want you to be able to get the full effect of
John's wisdom. If you want to be a winner
on the court and off pay attention to this:
'In NCAA Division I College football, The
University of Michigan is #1 in all time
winning percentage and overall wins --
and its not by accident.
Much of that success is unquestionably due
to talent, but lots of places have just as much,
if not more, talent. The thing is, the other
part is of that success is due to a specific
process, parts of which you can implement
into your own life and that's what I'm going
to let you in on today.
See, we used to have a saying 'Win today', and
it was always used when the going got really
tough - usually during summer 2-a-day practice
sessions, or after a tough loss, or late in the
season when the Big 10 Championship was on
the line, when we were all sore, tired and wanted
to be doing anything else but be there practicing
football.
Win today - It was an attitude thing. If you can
come out and practice with enthusiasm especially
when you dont feel like it, you'll be tough to beat
since every practice is an opportunity to improve.
And thats what its all about - improvement.
So, in order to 'Win The Day' we also had goals
for each practice. They were not particularly
difficult goals to reach, but if we could meet those,
day in and day out, we would win everything in
sight.
These were the little things that always made
the difference in big games like no false-start
penalties or getting at least 2 interceptions per
practice.
Again, very achievable, just have to do them day
in and day out.
As far as your training, or your life, you can do
the very same thing and it will make a
tremendous difference. Before you go to bed at
night, make a list of 3 things you want to
accomplish the next day.
Make them simple and very doable - take out
the trash, put the bills in the mail, etc. You can,
and should, accomplish more than that during
the course of the day, but just be sure those 3
things get done.
Plus, they carry over but don't increase, so if
you did 2 today, tomorrow you would still have
3 - the one you missed and 2 new ones.
You'll be surprised at just how much of a
challenge it can be to do 3 simple tasks each
day but that's why its so effective.
Over and over and over again - a few simple
things, done correctly, always make the
difference.'
So go figure out what will 'Win Today' in your
quest to become a great shooter then go out
and ...
Shoot For The Stars,
Coach Dean - The Dean of Shooting Hoops
P.S. John's forte is building hand, wrist, forearm
and grip strength. All things you need to control
a critical rebound, whip out an ankle breaking
crossover, and shoot with a relaxed, consistent
stroke. See what goodies John has to help you out
today at:

P.S.S. Your season is probably over unless you
play in the NBA, and now is the time to ramp up
your training and see gains in strength, stamina,
quickness, and speed.
I'm sure you're busy like me though and don't
have all day to train. You want to make the most
of your time, and believe it or not you can do
exactly that. And at the same time you can be
confident you are training right with Coach Tony
Alfonso's guide to basketball-specific training
and conditioning.

e-book ASAP at:
