Tracking My Progress

Tracking your progress as a player is harder than it sounds. You see yourself every day, so changes happen slowly enough that you do not notice them. That is why writing things down matters.

Without a record, you rely on memory. And memory is unreliable, especially when it comes to your own performance. You remember the bad moments more vividly than the good ones. You forget the small improvements that add up over weeks and months. A written record corrects for that. It gives you evidence instead of feelings.

The simplest way to track progress is to note one thing you did well and one thing you want to improve after every session. Over a month, you will have 8 to 12 data points. Over a season, you will have a clear picture of where you have grown and where you are stuck.

Be honest with yourself when tracking progress. It is tempting to write what you think sounds good rather than what actually happened. But the value is in the truth. If you had a poor session, say so. If a skill is not improving despite weeks of practice, acknowledge it. That honesty is what helps you adjust your approach.
