This is one of the first steps I use when teaching people how to set goals. Say it consciously for long enough and it'll become unconscious programming eventually.
A mantra is a short phrase or word that can help you stay present and bring focus. It can be incredibly helpful when faced with a setback.
What’s your mantra?

Finished the session with striking volleys today. Solid contact for most of them too!

This is the closest lesson I've seen to the basic parts of the Fiorentina methodology I learned years ago. It's a great example of how much science there is in the proper structure of youth activities - the first 20 mins explains it well. I'd generally characterize these together as psycho-motor skills - this lesson doesn't progress into coordination skills which is likely where the methodologies would diverge. Either way, the first 20 mins are a great watch for those wanting to understand the beginnings of athletic development.

First day of getting used to a racket. She's getting the hang of moving forward and backwards to time the bounces. So for spacial-time orientation, thats a good start.

Our next endeavors! Time to work on our spacial-time orientation over our heads. Volleyball and Tennis.

This was the last of our anticipation exercises. It focused on watching for the visual cue of a pass, anticipating it, and trying to win the ball first. There's a good bit of spacial-time orientation as well to make the decision whether the ball can be won or if they need to hold up and defend.
This passing and moving exercise focuses on communicating for the ball and directing the other player where to move. It urges them to do both while they are moving or the ball is moving - getting them to do multiple things at once. Far too often kids are silent as their coach says everything. Kids need to learn how to talk.
