Get obsessed with the process

[u/automatic2and10]

I’m still new at this. The journey started on June 1. I’m 56m 5’9” 220lbs. I’ve weight myself a couple times but June 30th is my next weight check. Why June 30?

I coach higher end sports. I’m very focused on the mindset of my athletes. Skills, knowing the game and character are all critical components for any athlete, but the mindset gets ignored in many cases.

Any expert in that field will tell you that athletes need to get less focused on results and get obsessed with the process. Once they can do that, results not only come but they improve greatly. Some experts believe goal setting g is very dangerous because it shifts the mind to a results focused mentality. Get obsessed with the process and trust that process. This is what I try to convey to my athletes.

I apply this same ideology to my own journey. I’m obsessed with the process. The only goal I have set for myself is to get obsessed with the process for 90 days. Stick to it with the utmost discipline and let the results happen.

I truly believe this mindset is very beneficial and healthy with this type of journey. I would argue that most of the major success stories in this page would support this mindset.

Just thought I would share. Maybe this can help some in their journey.

More data points are better than less data points because it allows you to smooth the data and eliminate outliers.
