Mental Skills

“Put First Things First”

Doing the harder thing first, so that you haven’t exhausted your willpower before you get it done. This is a form of showing responsibility because you’re doing the most important things first, not necessarily what you want to do.

If-then

If you have a habit of forgetting to bring your soccer ball to practice, then you should put it into your ball by your cleats so that you don’t forget.
