Guest Post: JD's Reflection from Camp

An important note from JD from the Ben Kjar Standout camp on June 15, 2006:

Ben Kjar shared a lot of wrestling techniques and mental skills.  His formula for setting goals is called, "Calling Your Shot."

1. Call Your Shot: write down your goal

2. Shot Callers: name 2-3 people who will hold you accountable - coaches, teammates, parents, etc.

3. Shot Clock: set an expiration date for your goal or a date to achieve your goal

Pleasure and Pain: name rewards for achieving the goal and consequences for not achieving the goal.

Additional quote: don't be a Karen not calling your shots and not taking shots.

JD is a recent graduate and will wrestle in college next season.
