The “Junkyard Dog” Mindset

Welcome to Episode 41 - The “Junkyard Dog” Mindset 😡💪

With hosts Jeff Lerg and Chris Palmer, the discussion is focused on mid-season challenges and maintaining motivation. As we are past the beginning of the season, near Halloween — when players have had enough time to assess their position and performance. Some are excelling and seeking ways to maintain motivation, while others might be struggling with unmet expectations.

Episode highlights: 

- How there has been an evolution of hockey training. Noting how it has become a year-round sport with the possibility of overtraining, particularly during summer, which can lead to mental fatigue by October.

- The "junkyard dog mentality" - staying hungry for opportunities despite challenges. 

- The importance of moving away from victim mentality and focusing on self-accountability.

- Practical advice about implementing weekly goal-setting sessions, suggesting a simple five-minute weekly planning routine on Sunday nights to maintain focus and progress toward larger objectives.

AND A LOT MORE!
