I had a formal process of writing down my training programs, recording the data from my rides, evaluating the outcomes to see if I was tracking. It really can work. This is all about a clear approach to apply self-coaching. > 1. Have a self-coaching conversation. > 2. Adopt a self-coaching mindset. > 3. Develop a self-coaching plan. > 4. Embrace the self-coaching journey. > 5. Strengthen the self-coaching habit. To me the biggest aspect of self-coaching is to externalize the data and learnings, typically by writing them down. Doing this allows you to see your own thoughts and commitments almost as external to you, and allow you to be a better coach to yourself. ## Facts - Kind: [Page](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/kinds/page/) ## Appears in - [WT217: Weekly Thing #217 / Ukraine, Coaching, Population](https://weekly.thingelstad.com/archive/217/), Notable ## Same host - [How to Navigate Stress in a Storm | Leadership Freak](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/1cd4b8547306/) (leadershipfreak.blog, November 23, 2021) - [Why Return to the Office if You Can Do Your Job at Home | Leadership Freak](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/39dc85084394/) (leadershipfreak.blog, December 8, 2021) - [5 Energizing Conversation Starters for One-on-Ones](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/5de01bb4b7c0/) (leadershipfreak.blog, March 14, 2022) - [How Busy Managers Practice People Development - Leadership Freak](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/73728861a282/) (leadershipfreak.blog, March 17, 2022) - [4 Hard Things Leaders Do](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/8a060e3d45c8/) (leadershipfreak.blog, May 26, 2022) ## Saved the same week - [What You’re Feeling Isn’t A Vibe Shift.
