Balance -the 70/20/10 Rule

December 21, 2018 by theorytopractice Leave a Comment

70% of the time, I train at 70% of my available maximal effort. Punching the clock, so to speak.  Chopping wood; carrying water. 20% of the time, I go for broke.  I blow the carbon out; unleash the inner beast.  Lay it on the line; shooting for PRs. 10% of the time, I simply move…. [More…]

The OODA Loop

December 19, 2018 by theorytopractice Leave a Comment

This comes right out of my military and sports training.  The OODA Loop forces you out of your thinking mind, and directly into action.   You’ve got your goal set, and a system and process in place to support that goal.  Now, you need to act on it. Because otherwise it’s just another beautiful plan… [More…]

What’s Real

December 17, 2018 by theorytopractice Leave a Comment

I’m not above learning from people who speak only from theory.  I always assume I’m the dumbest guy in the room. Everyone has something to teach, and it’s up to me to pan for the gold.  Or just let it remain in the river flow, unused. It’s all up to me. A walk through the… [More…]

The Drug War

December 12, 2018 by theorytopractice Leave a Comment

In Portugal, the country where drug use has been decriminalized since 2001, addiction, according to the locals, is a non-issue.  No drug addicted zombies in the streets. No drug-associated turf wars.  No societal chaos. No fear; no drug war to fight.  To them, legalization just makes common sense. Chew on that for a moment. I… [More…]

The Centipede’s Dilemma

December 9, 2018 by theorytopractice Leave a Comment

The antithesis to flow is thinking too much.   Consider the centipede’s plight: A centipede was happy – quite!Until a toad in funSaid, “Pray, which leg comes after which?”Which threw her mind in such a pitch,She laid bewildered in the ditchConsidering how to run. Early in my coaching career I wondered why it was that… [More…]

Accumulate overwhelming evidence for who you are

December 6, 2018 by theorytopractice Leave a Comment

Who I am. What I do. How I do it. These are “north star” statements I affirm by my daily actions.  The comprise the vision of myself to which every string of goals I set are ultimately affixed. But before they were the vision and the statements (mantra) they are today, they were the questions… [More…]

Tools vs Feels

December 3, 2018 by theorytopractice 2 Comments

Although this is an extreme example, it’s still a good representation of why you can’t rely solely on technology to make decisions on how to act. This is my morning HRV reading from this past Sunday.  Looks pretty damn impressive right? I mean, this dude’s gotta be ready to rock the fuckin’ house! Except, I’m… [More…]

The Compounding Effect

December 1, 2018 by theorytopractice 2 Comments

AKA, “the Aggregation of Marginal Gains”.  AKA, “the 1% Rule”. AKA, building a castle, one block at a time. Call it what you will, it just works. Albert Einstein purportedly said of the matter: Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world. He who understands it,earns it … he who doesn’t … pays it. Compound… [More…]

What does it mean to be a “warrior in the garden”?

November 30, 2018 by theorytopractice Leave a Comment

It means shouldering responsibility and hardship for no other reason than it’s the right thing to do.  To accept your place in this realm of being the Yang counterbalance to Nature’s entropic Yen force.   It means commitment to “other”, over and above one’s self.  That commitment might be to family, tribe, nation, or a… [More…]

Perception

November 25, 2018 by theorytopractice Leave a Comment

I had a thought while attending the Texas A&M – LSU game this last weekend.  An epic, barn-burner of a game. A&M scores a touchdown on the last play of regulation to tie it up at 31.  Then goes on to win 74 – 71, in 7 overtimes? Are you kidding me? And it couldn’t… [More…]
