When you first use the journal, you’ll be guided through some important principles:

null

Define the VALUES that matters most to you

null

Establish a tangible VISION for where you want your life to go

null

Create GOALS that start big and then narrow towards daily actions

null

Draw out an overarching map that will guide your everyday thinking

Taking these beginning steps before using the journal ensures that you wake up each day with intention and an overall understanding of why your daily efforts are worthwhile. When we can figure out where we are going, the HOW becomes that much more clear and meaningful.

HOW THE DAILY ATHLETE JOURNAL WORKS

The journal is divided up into two sections: a morning routine and then an evening routine.

MORNING ROUTINE

Between waking up and heading off to your first task you have a prime opportunity to think about how you’d like to spend your day. By aligning yourself with what you are grateful for and then sorting out the day’s most important actions, you will ensure that you are moving in a direction that coincides with your goals and values.

EVENING ROUTINE

Your evening is a perfect time to evaluate your day and then contemplate how you could improve for tomorrow. Without some form of reflection, we go blindly on our way, creating more unintended consequences, and failing to achieve anything useful. This section allows you to review your day; reflect on the good, the bad, and how you got better from both.

Everyone knows you can't judge a book by its cover, however, you can from the first few pages. So be our guest and take a peak.

How a journal can keep you on the right path

We all have times in our lives where we get off track. We give into a weaker mindset and drift away from our best selves. But what happens if the weak mindset wins more often than the strong one? How will you catch yourself and refocus before the weak days begins to add up?
The Daily Athlete Journal is an elegant, but effective solution for overcoming this slow deviation.

WHAT OTHER ATHLETES THINK

Here are some reviews from other athletes who have used the journal:

“The Daily Athlete Journal has helped me keep a daily tab of my emotions and through that process, it has allowed me to understand myself and how I play best in my sport. Using the journal has become just as important a daily routine as eating a good meal or getting a good sleep. If you are looking to go from being good to great and want to achieve the highest level in sport you have to look no further than this.”

Blake Scheerhoorn

Volleyball Canada
As a person with many different thoughts running through my mind at once, I found the daily athlete journal to be helpful in a way that helped me to have a main focus throughout the day and left me with a positive way of looking at things. Each morning and evening I set aside time to reflect on my goals and actions that were helping me to reach my long-term goals. The Daily Athlete journal helped to slow my mind down, to think each day what I’m grateful for and to simplify what I wanted to accomplish in my day.

Kristen Moncks

Volleyball Canada
“The Daily Athlete Journal was the first time that I did a morning and evening review. It has helped me keep my focus on what is really important and to accomplish those things throughout the day. I would set very realistic actions that I normally have a hard time doing that would push me towards my goals (ie. drinking 5L of water). Then at the end of the day, you can reflect to see what you accomplished and what you still need to work on. The journal helped me make small incremental improvements towards the type of athlete and person I want to be.”

This journal is for anyone who…

When you take the time to plan your day in the morning and review how it went in the evening, you are giving yourself one the greatest gifts possible; a chance to reset and refocus. Why is this such a valuable gift?

Well, in this world of constant noise, endless distractions, and ongoing obstacles, it can be very easy to get caught up in everything and lose sight of what matters. Often it’s not until we reach the end of a long season or New Year’s Eve that we begin to question how things got to their current state. We vow to be better and make some serious changes, but typically by this point, the damage has been done. It’s too late, and your opportunities have passed.

Through a daily journaling practice, you give yourself a chance to avoid this mistake. Every single day you are given the opportunity to plan and rethink how you can be better. You don’t run the risk of taking it easy because you always have something small to focus on. You can comfortably look back on the past and know that the majority of them were spent on focusing on the things that truly matter to you.

Yes, we actually have another variation of the journal which is our “Training Edition“. This is more so designed for younger athletes who have other focuses such as school, homework, or other extracurricular activities. Instead of aiming to plan out the entire day this journal focuses primarily on each training session.

That’s a great question! Often coaches want to give out the journals to athletes at their camps, but would rather offer them a sample version (just to get a taste). For this reason, we offer 1-month trial versions of the journal that can be ordered in quantities above 20.

If you are interested in finding out more or ordering these for an upcoming camp, please email derek@dailyathlete.ca
