In support of the motivational CD, the log provides a practical method of recording your output from the mental exercises undertaken in the CD as well monitoring your ongoing progress against objectives, training, performance in competition - linking your sports buddy or coach into every aspect of your development. The various sub-sections of the log are:
|

Personal Details – recording specific details about you, your team and your buddy or coach, a clear understanding of your sporting environment, can be monitored
Strengths and Weaknesses Evaluation – providing a platform for personal and colleague evaluation of your current strengths/weaknesses across areas of key sporting competency
Areas for Improvement and corresponding Training requirements – focussing on short term areas of focus along with how your buddy will be able to assist you as well as how you both should be rewarded
Personal Objectives – following SMART rules; focussed short, medium and long term objectives are recorded enabling you and your buddy to own and monitor the progress and visualisation of your structured development programme
Creating the Movie – documenting a bank of positive lifetime experiences, utilising the first CD’s visualisation techniques. The log allows you to produce a certificated affirmation statement providing daily visual reinforcement of your goals
What’s My Label – documenting areas in need of improvement and through regular positive visualisation, improve self perception - enabling you to stretch out of comfort zones
Training Session Records – recording past and future training along with the measurement of its impact, both physical and mental, enabling you to be efficient and get the best from valuable training time
Competing/Playing Records – how you perform on the day is critical, what went well, where improvement could be made, how you felt - all need to be recorded. These can then be addressed utilising the various tools in the CD.
Sports Diary – keeping updated records of future training requirements/dates and key sporting events will ensure that you are able to plan, both physically and mentally, for success
and Nutrition Log – what you eat and drink are key influencers in your ability to perform. Your nutritional regime needs to be constantly reviewed and its impact on your training and performance.
