MONDAY MOTIVATION - Use the right tools (Patreon)

Hey team! In this Monday Motivation chat, I talk about making sure we’re using the right tools in our lives, in a literal sense but also in a more abstract sense. I hope something that I say resonates with you and you can use what we learn in todays video to help us in both our day to day and our skate practise!

Here are my key take aways from the video but please watch the full video to understand these points in more detail :D

What is a tool?

- Something that is used to do a job or activity or something that helps you to achieve something

Why is it important to use the right tools?

- Makes it easier for yourself

- Increases efficiency and productivity

- Makes practise safer

What is personal development?

- Any activity that help you improve yourself

YOU are already equipped with these tools you just have to decide to use them.

- Positivity, self love, opening your mind, questioning yourself, practising gratitude, calendaring, decision making, setting goals by working backwards, tracking, habit making, practising mindfulness, keep learning, journalling, visualising, reading and listening (books and podcasts)

Skate tools in a literal sense:

Are your tools working for you or is there anything you could change!?

- Boots, wheels, toe stop, plate, cushions, protective gear, actual tools for maintenance, the space that you have

Practise tools:

Are you using these to help you?

- Your mindset, classes or courses in person or online, planning your practise, setting goals, having good time management, using the internet and social media for inspiration, breaking down steps stages

What is your spanner to unlock what you want to achieve!
