Description
Teach your students a powerful tool to help them gain focus and achieve excellence in their pursuits.
According to Terry Orlick, celebrated sport psychologist, “Seven critical elements guide the pursuit of personal excellence: focus, commitment, mental readiness, positive images, confidence, distraction control and ongoing learning. These elements combine to form the wheel of excellence, a puzzle of interconnected pieces that applies to every performance pursuit.” (from In Pursuit of Excellence, Terry Orlick 4th edition)
This teaching resources includes:
1. Lecture for teaching the "Wheel of Excellence"
2. Student Handout for recording notes
3. Student Handout to build a personalized wheel
4.Sample of a personalized wheel to share with students and to guide teaching.
My students thoroughly enjoy the lecture. By talking about mental readiness, distraction control and other important concepts in performance psychology students gain insight in their own learning and are given tools to make adjustments in reaching their goals.
