Harvard University research states that when you meet somebody for the very first that time you've 90 seconds to make 90 percent of your impact.
Wow, that's a big, big claim, and YOU can use, and adapt this to ensure make YOU stand out from all the rest 24 / 7 .
But how ?
Simple.
By keeping the 90 / 90 rule at the very forefront of your mind from the moment that YOU turn the corner and arrive at your clubs training ground, or stadium, to the very moment YOU leave, because just like an actor YOU'RE constantly on show and under observation by everyone at that training ground, or stadium, including your own teamates.
By understanding and knowing what scouts, coach's, and managers actually see and hear when they look at YOU, and what they actually want to see and hear when they look at YOU.
By learning and understanding how these things work, and why these things work and then making them truly become part of YOU forever.
From the moment that YOU turn the corner and arrive at your clubs training ground, or stadium, YOU know that YOU'VE 90 seconds to make 90 percent of YOUR impact for that day in everyone YOU meet, and so this is what YOU tell YOURSELF.
When YOU get out of the car - It's Showtime.
As YOU enter the club - It's Showtime.
When YOU say hello and speak to anyone - It's Showtime.
When YOU enter the changing room and get ready - It's Showtime.
As YOU leave the changing room and make your way down to the pitch - It's Showtime.
As YOU enter the pitch - It's Showtime.
Wite every kick, header, tackle, run, or chasing back that YOU do - It's Showtime.
And so on, and so on, and so on.
The 90 / 90 rule must be at the very forefront of your mind from the moment that YOU turn the corner and arrive at your clubs training ground, or stadium, to the very moment YOU leave, because just like an actor YOU'RE constantly on show and under observation by everyone at that training ground, or stadium, including your own teamates.
The result of all of this ?
Simple.
" He's always the first one to arrive, and the last one to leave..., "
" He always leaves any problems that he may have at the gate when he arrives..., "
" He's always prepared, ready, and raring to go..., "
" He's always fully focused, and fully concentrated..., "
" He's always always eager to learn more, and he really listens to what you tell him something.., "
" He always pushes, and pushes, and pushes himself every single day in training in order to become better than he was yesterday..., "
" He's always a one hundred and ten percenter in training when he tackles, when he head's the ball, when he runs, and when he chases back..., "
" He always gets straight back up as if nothing's happened, and runs straight back into position whenever they knock him down..., "
" He always fights, and fights, and fights to the bitter end no matter what. He never gives in, and he never gives up..., "
" He's always positive, and happy, he's a real ray of sunlight..., "
" He's always someone you want to have around as his work ethic, his attitude, his love of football, and his personality are infectious..., "
" He's always full of heart, and hunger desire, and passion..., "
Only then, when all of these tiny but absolutely vital elements in this forum combine like a jigsaw puzzle with all the key elements of the other two forums and truly become part of YOU forever so that they instinctively become part of YOU and part of YOUR life, will YOU have the very best chance of wining that football trial, as all of these things put together with the talent that YOU already have will make YOU stand out from all the rest.
From the moment YOU pull up pull at the gates of the club in the car to the moment YOU leave, what YOU do, how YOU do it, and what YOU don't do, what YOU say, how YOU say it, and what YOU don't say, will all be carefully thought out, planned, and practised, again, and again, and again so that absolutely nothing's left to chance.
Success is born in the mind and it comes from the heart. Every single thing YOU do and say, and how YOU do it and say it on that pitch, either during training, or during a match, and every single thing YOU do and say, and how YOU do it and say off that pitch, can have either a negative effect, or it can have a positive effect. It’s up to YOU to decide which road YOU want to take. Give absolutely everything YOU'VE to give each and every single time and YOU stand out. YOU define who YOU are. Give it anything less and YOU simply blend in and become just another footballer.
So just bear with me and read on...,
Thank you for your time.
Slim.
