Garrett Westwell: What is the best way to revolutionize your focus and how you act throughout daily life? The acronym is win w I N. And it stands for what's important now. It's a simple, concise way to help your focus.
What's up, Cadre? Garrett Westwell here, your sports psychology expert. Today we're going to talk about focus. And with that, what if I told you there's one question or one acronym that I think is the best way to revolutionize your focus and how you act throughout daily life? I'm not one to promise life hacks that work for everybody, but I believe this acronym is a really powerful way to help your focus. And that acronym is win w I N. And it stands for what's important now. It's a great quote or acronym, and it was brought forth to our attention by Lou Holtz, a longtime college football coach for Notre Dame, a very successful program that he would ask his athletes all day, throughout their trainings, in the morning, their film, and their practice.
And it's just a great way to prioritize where we place our attention and. And how we act throughout daily life. So how it might look for you throughout our lives and our days, our obligations and our rules change, right? It's always changing throughout the day and for you in the morning. You know what's important now? That might be whatever your morning routine is. Maybe it's just enjoying your coffee. Maybe that's important to you right now. Maybe it's just whatever it needs or whatever you need to help get ready for the day during work, maybe at a meeting.
What's important now? Maybe you just need to listen intently to the person you're meeting with. And that's important at night. What's important now? It might be simply unwinding whatever that looks like for you. It might be just being present with your loved ones in order to unwind. That's important now. So it's a simple, concise way to help your focus, and it helps you be more present minded, kind of reduce that multitasking mindset that is so present in our culture. And how I like to think about it is it brings focus and clarity in a world that's full of chaos and complexity.
So use that win acronym. Go win the day, go win the moment, and think to yourself, what's important now?
