June Process Evaluation

JUNE PROCESS EVALUATION

1 tourney every other week at minimum
On weeks that I'm not going to a tournament, replace with longer meditations or consolidation/synthesis of info
I've done a good job of this BUT I've gone to too many tournaments I think (one a week). Without sufficient time to prepare, my results suffer. I'll start alternating preparation and attendance weeks, with 2-3 learning objectives centered on recent performance issues (gameplay or otherwise) and 1-2 learning objectives centered on general interest.

2 sessions a week
Netplay or otherwise
I play way too much netplay -- both per session and total sessions. Get back to solo practice and VOD study, especially now that I'm getting better at the latter. Something that has huge returns for me b/c I haven't even come close to diminishing return point is meditations + visualizations, so I could even work that in. Speaking of which...

Solo practice, meditation/visualization every day
Meditation/visualization should be about me re-tooling my competitive mindset, my expectations (or lack thereof), confidence, etc.

I've been slacking on this and I think these things hurt my gameplay the most. My execution scores and preparation scores were so consistently trash this month. Going to set up X-Effect cards for these.

3-4 days of VOD analysis
Good news: I got better at analysis.
Bad news: I don't do it often enough.

JULY PROCESS

Alternate attendance and preparation weeks.
-- Preparation should be centered on 2-3 recent performance issues (gameplay or otherwise) and 1-2 learning objectives that correspond with general interest.

2 sessions per week, netplay or otherwise
-- Don't forget netplay rules/setting timer for self
-- Don't play with others two days in a row!!!
-- Come into sessions with goals, or formulate them as I play

Solo practice, meditation/visualization every day
-- Solo practice when I get home from work. Start off with 15 minutes of basics, then go into practicing new options or situations I failed in tournament.
-- Meditation/visualization after water + when I wake up (lets me get comfortable and use on tourney days)

3-4 days a week of VOD Analysis
-- Try to associate urge to netplay with urge to analyze instead
-- Make sure to create list of testable/practicable items and/or insights to internalize.
