Practice can elevate our performance.  But WHAT IS PRACTICE? Dr. Nadine Kelly shares how practice does not make perfect, how to practice effectively by setting intentions (WHY am I doing this and WHO do I need to be?) and the benefits of practice, including being less reactive.PRINTABLE SHOWNOTESCONTENTS * Summary* Resources & Recommendations* Andrea’s Introduction* Interview Transcript* Andrea’s ConclusionSUMMARY: WHAT IS PRACTICE? Practice Does NOT Make Perfect! Practice is a good thing.  * Perfectionism is not. We need to stop seeking perfection.HOW to PracticeConsider your OBJECTIVES for practicing:* Instead of a goal associated with an outcome, focus on an intention. The WHY. * For example, if you’re delivering a speech or a client presentation, your intention, your WHY, could be to connect with the audience, to entertain, to deliver a message clearly to your client. * 2 questions to ask yourself when practicing: WHY am I doing this? And WHO do I need to be in the scenario? Practice by VISUALIZING. * VISUALIZING AS IN EMULATING – In the 4P’s framework, we call this PIRATING. Nadine asked me what it is about Madonna that I was trying to emulate.  It’s her swagger.  Suddenly I’ve set an intention for how to show up.  And I have swagger.* VISUALIZING OUR OWN SUCCESS – Be it mentally rehearsing playing your drums, like Nadine does, or mentally rehearsing a successful client presentation. Practice away from your craft by visualizing.The BENEFITS of PracticePracticing allows you to be a less reactive person, and more responsive. * It’s like muscle memory. * If you practice something, if you set an intention, you will eventually find that pause between trigger and response. And we all want that.With practice, the two Qs (the WHY am I doing this and the WHO do I need to be) become second nature.RESOURCES & RECOMMENDATIONSDr. Nadine Kelly * Website – YogiMD.net* Podcast – https://yogimd.net/podcast* “Wise Women Tea with YOGI MD” Facebook Group – https://www.facebook.com/groups/465040207766142/* Recommendations:* Trisha Park “Is it recess yet?”* Bruce Devereaux “The Creatively Engaging”* Talk About Talk podcast episode on POSTURE & BREATHING with Dr. Nadine Kelly: https://talkabouttalk.com/43-posture-breathing-with-dr-nadine-kelly-yogimd/Talk About Talk & Dr. Andrea Wojnicki* Website – https://talkabouttalk.com* Podcast – https://talkabouttalk.com/podcasts* Email – [email protected]* Free Weekly Newsletter – https://talkabouttalk.
