"Routines Help Make Useful Behavior Automatic"
By Sean McCann, PhD, Sport Psychologist
U.S. Olympic Committee Performances Services
Some psychologists believe that over 90% of our behaviors are automatic habits or unconscious, learned behavior patterns. This is why parents and first coaches in a sport play such a critical role in introducing positive behaviors. If you learn how to do something the right way at the beginning, you don't have to fix mistakes later, because you always do it the correct way, without any conscious thought. John Wooden was famous for teaching his Freshman basketball players the correct way to put on socks and tie sneakers. As a coach, if you invest the energy at the front end, you have the opportunity to create a positive routine for your athlete's entire career. These routines will become automatic and help the athlete avoid all kinds of challenges that many
athletes struggle with.
