Catching A Ball
• Each time someone catches ball, they form a connection • Wrapping that connection in Myelin • The more myelin the easier something becomes
• Repetition breeds the likelihood of further repetition • What happens when I fake the throw? • We travel the same pathways with thought as we do with actions!!

3. We build the best neural networks through emotive repetition.

Going beyond SMART objectives
• Present Tense - with a future date ü Your brain works in present tense ü Easy to sit still on ‘Someday Isle’
• Make it specific & emotive ü Details & Absolute Targets ü Put shivers down your spine ü Emotional Intensity builds Myelin ü Small Steps
• Positive Pictures ü “Don’t think of a pink elephant”
• Believable to YOU
ü No doubting voice ü Timescales ü Scenario Planning
• Visualise Often ü Frequency of thought builds Myelin
