We have to understand the “language” of each athlete for transfer of ideas to occur. Coaching is distilling complex ideas into actionable info that the player can internalize and “own”. It’s incredible what we find out when we simply ask “In your words, what was the message”

Just got done listening to @DrivelineBB podcast. Loved it. 2015 in ORL at @ABCA1945 I talked to @drivelinebases multiple times about buying HKTC, but as a volunteer the cost was hard to swallow. I pulled the trigger, ate a few more PB&Js that month, & it changed me as a coach.

@SLarkin04 Confidence is an emotion. Just like every other emotion it wavers at times and is incosistent. To rely on it to perform is to rely on something that is out of your control. Control what you can control.

@TheCatchingGuy @StickandBallTV It can't be overstated how much a quality catcher enhances a pitcher in the performance and development environment. An average pitcher with a knowledgeable catcher can exponentially increase their ability to collect outs and maximize their tools! #stickandballtv

We perceive to act and act to perceive. What amount of perception is conscious vs unconscious? Is there an underlying system that is always directing and framing these unconscious perceptions + actions? We worry about the subjective frequently but not the objective controls 🤫
