A Game Plan For Your Life

Here at Everyday QB, there is a method for you that can apply to any team or situation that you find yourself in. Based on my experience as a college quarterback, I believe that the training and practice method used by collegiate football teams throughout the country can be a plan that you can implement into your business, family or personal life. This training method is designed to prepare you for, “The Big Game” and is intended to maximize you and your team’s ability to be successful. Here at EverydayQB, we will use this training method and weekly schedule to relate sports news, strategy and theory to your everyday life. Providing insights from my experience as a college quarterback, athlete and sports lover, I will give you tips and methods that can improve your life and give you the opportunity to be successful.

Training and focus are crucial to every ‘game’ situation. Even when things are seemingly not going your way, victory and success can still be achieved. Graham Harrell, quarterback for Texas Tech, faced such a situation when they upset the no. 1 ranked Texas Longhorns last Saturday. Bringing his team down on a scoring drive to win the game, he threw a pass that was tipped and nearly intercepted by the Longhorn defense. When you see a pass you’ve thrown at the end of the game nearly intercepted, it can rattle and effect you for the next few plays and you can have a tendency to be tentative. But instead, Graham Harrell had the focus and the confidence to step up the very next play and make a great pass, behind the receiver, Michael Crabtree, which he caught and ran in for the touchdown. Graham Harrell mentioned in an after-the-game interview with ESPN that it was a throw and a play that they have practiced every day and during the week leading up to the game.

I am confident that the “Everyday QB game plan”, when applied with focus and practice, can give you an opportunity to be successful in life. Here is the game plan for each week at Everyday QB:

Monday: Review Day-Monday’s are the time of the week when you look back on the game and review how you could have improved, gotten better and the adjustments you need to make to be successful for the upcoming week. At EverydayQB, we will discuss weekend games, provide angles and personal insights that you won’t find on an average sports blog, and learn how to analyze and evaluate your business and family plans.

Wednesday: Strategy Day-In a collegiate football practice on Wednesdays, teams spend the majority of the day going over the specific game plan for their opponent that week. Its about finding a way to win, finding a way to be successful. We’ll talk about game plans for your life, breaking down film and evaluating opponents and making adjustments based on your personal strengths and developing your weaknesses.

Thursday: Fine Tune Day-Thursday is a light workout including a mock scrimmage, team planning and lifting weights. In the high profile collegiate teams, talking with the media is important on Thursdays. We’ll give tips on interviews and media, reviews on sports equipment and and proper dieting and weight training for athletes and people.
