How much time do you spend to improve?

Aristotle said that “We are what we constantly do. Excellence therefore is not a single act but a habit.

Excellence is based on the habit of striving to improve with almost total dedication. Those who don’t understand that this is the way to go on a daily basis believe they can make up for it with the knowledge and skills they already possess.

As a professional – coach, doctor, psychologist, physical trainer – how much time do you spend for your continuous improvement?

We are what we do daily

Aristotle said that “We are what we do consistently. Excellence then is not an act but a habit.” In fact, the sport is full of stories of young people who have been ruined by their talento (physical and technical), because they thought this gift was enough to be successful and then when life put them in face of conclusive evidence they have lost and disappeared. Because we are what we do every day; study, work and training for athletes. So excellence comes from the habit of training with a total commitment and dedication. Who does not understand that this is the way to go day by day believes to go ahead mainly with the natural talent, but unfortunately it’s only an illusion that the first bumps will destroy.
