Self-Improving
Always improving regardless of past achievement. Your best can always get better.
These three processes are an ongoing cycle in those that constantly improve:
Preparation – Creating a game plan, knowing what you will improve today and how you will do it
Contemplation – Setting aside alone time to put perspective on failures, organize your time, and plan improvement.
Application- Actually change. Not just different, but better everyday.
Examples of teammates that improve everyday:
You are highly teachable. You act like you need improvement, rather than a know-it-all. You ask questions. You look for ways to make your best technique better. You look for resources for improvement. You are more interested in achieving personal goals (using new technique, not getting scored on, improving strategic weakness) then winning another medal or seeing your name in the paper. You watch film to discover needed improvements rather than to pat yourself on the back. You are constantly tweaking your technique, style, and strategy. You never do things just because that’s how they’ve always been done. You write down things, plans, goals, things to improve.
