How to Turn Yourself Around

This is just great stuff.  Take a look at Wyatt on this video.  The dude has had 1-2 poor practices within the last week.  He has tried hard, but for whatever reason it wasn't there.  Part of it in my view is that Wyatt is right in between doing the tougher intervals and the easier intervals on the aerobic stuff right now…and the tougher stuff has been breaking him down.  Of course Wyatt is human and probably lets the so-so practices turn into BAD practices in a matter of 10 minutes during the set…at times (not that often really but twice recently perhaps).

So, Wyatt has done a few small extra things recently, and did the EXACT THING we need to be doing to turn one's self around: lead the way during warmup day following disappointment, and take personal responsibility to TURN IT AROUND.

You can see in the video that Wyatt is not only turning it around "in general" but he's really getting into the breaststroke portion….working on his stroke.  All of this is on his own….I didn't say a word to him today to get him to do this.

Our actions define our attitude, and it's our attitude that is determined by the actions we take!!
