Phoenix FC Habit Trackers

The Phoenix FC Philosophy:

We at Phoenix FC, believe that everyone has potential to unlock. Our athletes, parents, coaches, referees, and even our office staff, can improve ourselves and our lives however we desire by being diligent, purposeful, and brave. We can give you the tool, but you are the only one who can use it, and you alone hold the key for your own potential. 

 

How We See Habits:

Aristotle, the Greek philosopher said, "we are what we consistently do." Science has proven that 40-90% of our daily behaviours are the habits that we have formed. Habits are powerful. Habits are also changeable and the more we practice and enforce good habits, the better off we are.

 

The book Atomic Habits by James Clear is another inspiration to us at Phoenix FC. In this book, habits are broken down into their most basic form:

 

1. Cue

2. Craving

3. Response

4. Reward

 

Using our world of soccer, this would be 1) you're struggling with the ball on your off-foot, 2) you want to be better, 3) you attend clubhouse to practice, 4) your off-foot is getting better and you see clubhouse as an important activity.

As noted further into Clear's book, one of the first steps in forming habits is what he calls the "Two-Minute Rule". Don't try to make your habits too big, and as Clear writes, “Read before bed each night” becomes “Read one page"; "The point is to master the habit of showing up. The truth is, a habit must be established before it can be improved" (Clear, 2018)

 

"A habit tracker is a simple way to measure whether you did a habit. The most basic format is to get a calendar and cross off each day you stick with your routine. For example, if you meditate on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, each of those dates gets an X. As time rolls by, the calendar becomes a record of your habit streak...What can we do to make tracking easier? Whenever possible, measurement should be automated...record each measurement immediately after the habit occurs" (Clear, 2018).
