Make the Post-Shot Routine a Habit

The vivid preload is so essential, and it comes from making the post-shot routine a habit. People don’t do a post-shot routine, which is the part of building performance that’s wasted the most.

The brain has done a miraculous thing by putting together the circuit to break a 50-yard chandelle or a 25-to-30-yard quartering away bird screaming away from you. You use the challenge move on it, smoke it, and experience more relief than anything. 

When you experience relief after shooting a pair, there was hope in your plan. Hope is a performance killer. Hope leads to evaluation, and evaluation leads to how you're doing, rather than what you're doing.
