To improve, you need to do things ON purpose and WITH purpose. I extend the topic of "Well, Better, Learn" in the grand scope of learning, improvement, and heightened awareness.
Garrett: This is building on a previous video titled WBL, using reflection to accelerate growth. The visual that I want to show you all is what's called the deliberate practice model. This model says that in order to get truly better at something, we need to practice the skill deliberately.
Building awareness is a never ending journey and process. You're constantly refining it and practicing it. Using wellbutter learn is one of the best tools, hands down, for building your awareness and improving your performance.
Hello, it's Garrett. This is building on a previous video titled WBL, using reflection to accelerate growth. In that video, I talked about why reflection and self feedback is so important using the WBL acronym. That one is for well, better and learn. And it talks about, long story short, why awareness and improvement upon your performance is dependent on well rounded feedback. Part two of that video series is today where I want to zoom out a little bit and show you a visual of how feedback truly helps us grow grow over time.
The visual that I want to show you all is what's called the deliberate practice model. This model basically says that in order to get truly better at something, we need to practice the skill deliberately. In other words, we need to do it on purpose and with purpose. We all know this intuitively. When you practice something with intent and repeat it, you simply get better. As you can see in this model, with unstructured practice, you do get better a little bit day by day, just by going through the motions.
But with deliberate practice, that's where the true improvement compounds and shows you go through a process of practice feedback and refinement. And ultimately, that's where that well, better learned framework comes in, is giving you feedback to be able to refine your practice. I work a lot with high performing athletes and this concept makes a lot of sense, right? If you're practicing a lot and you're competing in games, feedback and improvement and learning and awareness is super important for an athlete's perspective.
And also, athletes are oftentimes overly reliant on coaches and or teammates to to give them feedback when they truly realize that they can give themselves feedback. It's a superpower to improve. And the same concepts can apply to anybody on this Cadre app, anybody that's trying to improve themselves, which should be everybody. So if you're trying to improve athletically, great. This concept applies to you as well. But also if you're trying to be a better parent, a better spouse, a better friend, a better leader, or someone in your workplace, or any goal that you're trying to accomplish.
This model of, well, better learn and deliberate practice is beneficial for you. And also realizing that you don't need to be overly reliant on a supervisor, manager, or anybody else in your life except yourself. You can give yourself feedback and use yourself as a tool to build awareness and improve your performance. The main takeaways that I hope you all get from this two part video series on well, better learn is that building awareness is a never ending journey and process. You're constantly refining it and practicing it and getting feedback from it along the way.
You don't want to waste a big learning opportunity by not reflecting on what just happened in your performance. How can you know what to adjust if you don't know what happened in the first place? Using wellbutter learn is one of the best tools, hands down, for building your awareness and improving your performance.
