00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,230
Hello, and welcome to Pickleball Therapy,

2
00:00:01,230 --> 00:00:03,770
the podcast dedicated to your Pickleball improvement.

3
00:00:03,770 --> 00:00:05,090
Hope you having a great week.

4
00:00:06,210 --> 00:00:08,090
I got ready to record today's podcast.

5
00:00:08,450 --> 00:00:09,210
I look out the window.

6
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:11,650
It's just a beautiful day down here in Florida.

7
00:00:12,230 --> 00:00:14,570
So I'm outdoors recording this podcast,

8
00:00:15,270 --> 00:00:16,610
and maybe a little bit of background noise,

9
00:00:16,610 --> 00:00:17,090
some wind,

10
00:00:17,090 --> 00:00:18,370
maybe an airplane or something,

11
00:00:18,430 --> 00:00:19,690
but we're gonna be fine.

12
00:00:19,750 --> 00:00:23,090
So let's proceed with the podcast in this a beautiful setting

13
00:00:23,310 --> 00:00:23,850
in Florida.

14
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:25,770
This week's podcast,

15
00:00:25,940 --> 00:00:28,370
we're gonna talk about input and output.

16
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,770
It's gonna be really helpful to you to understand the process.

17
00:00:31,900 --> 00:00:34,930
We're just gonna break it down and to understand how we

18
00:00:34,930 --> 00:00:37,170
get to the outputs that we want when we play Pickleball,

19
00:00:38,050 --> 00:00:39,370
because we are in fact,

20
00:00:40,150 --> 00:00:42,050
output oriented creatures.

21
00:00:42,270 --> 00:00:44,210
And I'm gonna explain that a little bit in a little

22
00:00:44,210 --> 00:00:45,650
bit, okay?

23
00:00:46,090 --> 00:00:46,890
A little bit in a little bit.

24
00:00:47,910 --> 00:00:49,010
Before we get into the podcast,

25
00:00:49,370 --> 00:00:52,650
I wanted to let you know that we have a book

26
00:00:52,650 --> 00:00:54,450
coming out in the not too distant future.

27
00:00:54,990 --> 00:00:56,250
If you want to hear more about it,

28
00:00:56,450 --> 00:00:59,250
check out our special episode on the three spheres of the

29
00:00:59,250 --> 00:00:59,890
Pickleball mind.

30
00:01:00,450 --> 00:01:03,570
I think it's really gonna help you further understand how it

31
00:01:03,570 --> 00:01:03,970
is that,

32
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,970
that you can best train yourself from a mental perspective,

33
00:01:08,650 --> 00:01:09,930
from a mental standpoint,

34
00:01:10,230 --> 00:01:14,570
in terms of the different spheres that impact how you relate

35
00:01:14,710 --> 00:01:17,330
to Pickleball from a mental standpoint.

36
00:01:17,330 --> 00:01:18,450
So check out that episode,

37
00:01:18,510 --> 00:01:20,370
the special episode on the podcast.

38
00:01:21,270 --> 00:01:21,570
All right,

39
00:01:21,570 --> 00:01:23,890
let's talk about inputs and outputs and,

40
00:01:24,230 --> 00:01:26,530
and how we can improve our outputs.

41
00:01:27,030 --> 00:01:29,130
So we are output oriented creatures.

42
00:01:29,130 --> 00:01:32,770
What I mean by that is we are looking for results.

43
00:01:32,910 --> 00:01:38,490
We are looking for some sort of outcome based on our

44
00:01:38,490 --> 00:01:39,730
efforts. So for instance,

45
00:01:39,730 --> 00:01:39,970
you know,

46
00:01:39,970 --> 00:01:41,370
you're looking for success at work.

47
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,010
Well, that's an output,

48
00:01:43,180 --> 00:01:44,970
right? You're looking to win a Pickleball game.

49
00:01:45,430 --> 00:01:46,290
That's an output,

50
00:01:46,420 --> 00:01:48,690
right? So we're always looking for results or for outcomes,

51
00:01:48,690 --> 00:01:49,010
or for,

52
00:01:49,010 --> 00:01:49,450
in this case,

53
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:50,330
outputs, right?

54
00:01:50,330 --> 00:01:51,130
Is what we're looking for.

55
00:01:52,430 --> 00:01:54,810
So, if we want to improve our outputs,

56
00:01:54,810 --> 00:01:55,370
the question is,

57
00:01:55,430 --> 00:01:56,170
how do we do that?

58
00:01:56,990 --> 00:02:00,970
The way we do that is we improve our inputs.

59
00:02:01,830 --> 00:02:02,410
So let's,

60
00:02:02,500 --> 00:02:04,730
let's assume that we're gonna bake a cake,

61
00:02:04,730 --> 00:02:05,370
right? We like,

62
00:02:05,370 --> 00:02:05,810
you know what,

63
00:02:05,950 --> 00:02:07,330
I'd love to bake a cake.

64
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,810
Well, in order to bake a cake,

65
00:02:09,830 --> 00:02:11,490
at least a cake that anybody wants to eat,

66
00:02:12,290 --> 00:02:13,890
I need to know something about what,

67
00:02:14,940 --> 00:02:16,010
about how to bake a cake,

68
00:02:16,260 --> 00:02:17,250
right? I need a recipe.

69
00:02:17,970 --> 00:02:18,530
I need to know,

70
00:02:18,610 --> 00:02:19,690
I need this much flour,

71
00:02:19,730 --> 00:02:20,530
I need this much sugar.

72
00:02:20,730 --> 00:02:21,810
I need a couple eggs,

73
00:02:22,170 --> 00:02:22,450
whatever it is,

74
00:02:22,450 --> 00:02:23,130
depending on the recipe,

75
00:02:23,230 --> 00:02:24,210
and I'm gonna sneeze in a second.

76
00:02:24,330 --> 00:02:24,650
I apologize.

77
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:25,570
It's gonna happen.

78
00:02:28,030 --> 00:02:28,370
You know,

79
00:02:28,390 --> 00:02:29,610
my apologies for the sneeze,

80
00:02:29,610 --> 00:02:30,570
but sitting outdoors,

81
00:02:30,570 --> 00:02:31,370
right? So it's Florida.

82
00:02:32,550 --> 00:02:33,290
So I need a recipe,

83
00:02:33,380 --> 00:02:36,450
right? The recipe in this situation is what?

84
00:02:37,930 --> 00:02:38,700
It's the input,

85
00:02:39,310 --> 00:02:41,580
right? The input that allows me to have what?

86
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:42,620
The output,

87
00:02:42,830 --> 00:02:44,980
right? So good set of inputs,

88
00:02:44,980 --> 00:02:46,220
right? A really good,

89
00:02:47,580 --> 00:02:48,860
I don't know what kind of cake you like,

90
00:02:48,860 --> 00:02:50,020
but I'm gonna make a chocolate cake.

91
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,820
So a really good chocolate cake recipe will help me have

92
00:02:53,820 --> 00:02:56,860
what? A really good output chocolate cake.

93
00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,100
And it's the same thing About,

94
00:02:59,310 --> 00:02:59,570
you know,

95
00:02:59,630 --> 00:03:00,250
if you think about it,

96
00:03:00,250 --> 00:03:02,730
it's the same thing when you play Pickleball.

97
00:03:03,350 --> 00:03:04,250
You want an output,

98
00:03:04,250 --> 00:03:06,770
right? You want to win a game.

99
00:03:06,920 --> 00:03:07,810
Well, to win a game,

100
00:03:08,310 --> 00:03:10,250
you need lots of inputs,

101
00:03:10,250 --> 00:03:12,250
because there's a lot of different things that happen in a

102
00:03:12,250 --> 00:03:13,170
game. A game is actually,

103
00:03:13,170 --> 00:03:13,730
if you think about it,

104
00:03:13,810 --> 00:03:18,130
a game is a series of rallies that some are in

105
00:03:18,130 --> 00:03:18,490
your favor,

106
00:03:18,490 --> 00:03:19,490
some are not in your favor.

107
00:03:19,510 --> 00:03:21,250
And then at the end of the contest,

108
00:03:22,130 --> 00:03:23,290
at some stage,

109
00:03:23,670 --> 00:03:23,930
you know,

110
00:03:23,950 --> 00:03:25,010
one of us reaches 11,

111
00:03:25,150 --> 00:03:26,410
and that's the end of the,

112
00:03:26,550 --> 00:03:27,090
of the game.

113
00:03:27,870 --> 00:03:28,450
So that's,

114
00:03:28,590 --> 00:03:29,210
that's a game,

115
00:03:29,210 --> 00:03:31,810
right? So in order to have the good output of a

116
00:03:31,810 --> 00:03:32,130
good game,

117
00:03:32,530 --> 00:03:35,610
I need to have a lot of small good outputs,

118
00:03:35,610 --> 00:03:36,610
which are the rallies.

119
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,210
Then in order to have good outputs on the rallies,

120
00:03:39,250 --> 00:03:40,970
I need to have good outputs on different,

121
00:03:41,070 --> 00:03:42,690
on different phases of the rallies,

122
00:03:42,690 --> 00:03:45,770
right? Different steps in the rally,

123
00:03:45,770 --> 00:03:47,970
different shots that occur during the rally and things like that.

124
00:03:48,710 --> 00:03:49,290
So the,

125
00:03:49,290 --> 00:03:50,290
the, at the end of this process,

126
00:03:50,300 --> 00:03:54,530
right? How do I improve the outputs in my play?

127
00:03:55,420 --> 00:03:56,800
But the re the way I improve,

128
00:03:56,870 --> 00:04:02,160
improve the outputs in my play is by improving the inputs,

129
00:04:03,820 --> 00:04:07,040
not so much by having to change you.

130
00:04:07,500 --> 00:04:09,200
And that's an important concept here.

131
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,840
A lot of times Pickleball players think,

132
00:04:12,140 --> 00:04:13,280
and this is just human nature,

133
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,320
right? We think that it's our fault,

134
00:04:15,370 --> 00:04:16,520
right? I,

135
00:04:16,620 --> 00:04:16,960
you know,

136
00:04:17,060 --> 00:04:17,840
I'm just not getting it,

137
00:04:17,900 --> 00:04:19,160
or I'm doing something wrong,

138
00:04:19,180 --> 00:04:20,200
or this is on me.

139
00:04:21,060 --> 00:04:21,960
Am I here to tell you?

140
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:23,720
Probably not on you.

141
00:04:24,300 --> 00:04:25,440
And what I mean by that is,

142
00:04:25,660 --> 00:04:26,480
at the end of the day,

143
00:04:26,900 --> 00:04:28,720
you are a very competent,

144
00:04:29,350 --> 00:04:34,280
capable, sentient being running around this planet of ours,

145
00:04:34,280 --> 00:04:35,560
right? You have,

146
00:04:35,940 --> 00:04:38,840
you are gifted with a supercomputer up in your,

147
00:04:39,100 --> 00:04:39,840
up in your head,

148
00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:44,280
right? This amazing machine that can do a lot of things.

149
00:04:44,900 --> 00:04:45,440
And you know,

150
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:45,840
at our campus,

151
00:04:45,860 --> 00:04:47,640
we like to remind our students,

152
00:04:47,660 --> 00:04:48,280
our campers,

153
00:04:48,790 --> 00:04:50,040
that they've,

154
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,120
everybody's done something probably more than one thing,

155
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,760
but at least one thing in your life that's good.

156
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:56,560
Meaning, like,

157
00:04:56,820 --> 00:04:57,120
you know,

158
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,520
you're good at cooking,

159
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,080
you're good at some work thing you did,

160
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:02,280
or you're good at the house,

161
00:05:02,340 --> 00:05:03,480
or you're good at carpentry,

162
00:05:03,620 --> 00:05:04,640
you're good at sewing,

163
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,840
you're good at at human relations,

164
00:05:06,840 --> 00:05:07,960
right? You're nice to other people.

165
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:09,040
Whatever. It's,

166
00:05:09,230 --> 00:05:12,600
there's one or multiple things that you are good at.

167
00:05:12,780 --> 00:05:13,080
You know,

168
00:05:13,180 --> 00:05:15,480
you are competent and you're capable of doing those things.

169
00:05:15,930 --> 00:05:17,080
Pickleball is no different.

170
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:21,040
Pickleball is not some mysterious secret thing that is,

171
00:05:21,180 --> 00:05:21,480
you know,

172
00:05:21,740 --> 00:05:23,040
beyond your abilities.

173
00:05:23,660 --> 00:05:25,000
So the,

174
00:05:25,060 --> 00:05:25,600
the, the,

175
00:05:25,620 --> 00:05:26,280
but here's the thing.

176
00:05:27,740 --> 00:05:29,240
We get bogged down in.

177
00:05:30,260 --> 00:05:31,080
It must be me,

178
00:05:31,090 --> 00:05:33,080
right? There's something wrong with me.

179
00:05:33,750 --> 00:05:34,840
There's nothing wrong with you.

180
00:05:35,950 --> 00:05:37,560
What there's wrong with right?

181
00:05:37,900 --> 00:05:38,960
Is your inputs.

182
00:05:39,260 --> 00:05:40,280
You don't have a good recipe.

183
00:05:40,660 --> 00:05:41,000
You know,

184
00:05:41,020 --> 00:05:43,680
you're trying to bake a cake and your recipe calls for

185
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:44,200
you to use like,

186
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:44,960
I don't know,

187
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,680
playground, sand and charcoal.

188
00:05:47,860 --> 00:05:48,480
And you're like,

189
00:05:48,620 --> 00:05:49,960
no wonder the cake tastes terrible.

190
00:05:50,510 --> 00:05:51,920
It's not because you're a bad baker.

191
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,740
You don't have a good recipe and your Pickleball game,

192
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:56,260
if it's,

193
00:05:56,260 --> 00:05:57,690
if it's not Where you want it to be,

194
00:05:58,470 --> 00:06:01,810
it is not because of some deficiency that you bring to

195
00:06:01,810 --> 00:06:02,090
the table.

196
00:06:02,150 --> 00:06:04,290
It is not because of some inherent problem with you.

197
00:06:05,390 --> 00:06:08,570
It is a problem with your inputs.

198
00:06:08,990 --> 00:06:10,210
You don't have the good,

199
00:06:10,510 --> 00:06:12,450
you don't have good inputs.

200
00:06:13,110 --> 00:06:15,010
And if you want to improve as a Pickleball player,

201
00:06:15,010 --> 00:06:17,010
right? If you want to be a stronger player,

202
00:06:17,630 --> 00:06:19,810
you wanna understand the game,

203
00:06:20,030 --> 00:06:22,210
you wanna understand the recipe of Pickleball,

204
00:06:22,210 --> 00:06:23,130
if you want to think about it that way,

205
00:06:23,130 --> 00:06:24,010
right? Let's continue that,

206
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:25,170
that sort of thought process.

207
00:06:26,230 --> 00:06:26,530
You know,

208
00:06:26,550 --> 00:06:27,010
so you,

209
00:06:27,030 --> 00:06:28,050
you need a good recipe.

210
00:06:28,230 --> 00:06:28,850
You need to know,

211
00:06:28,850 --> 00:06:30,050
okay, this is the recipe of Pickleball.

212
00:06:30,050 --> 00:06:31,210
This is how the,

213
00:06:31,430 --> 00:06:32,810
how the game is constructed,

214
00:06:32,810 --> 00:06:35,130
right? This is the oven temperature that I need.

215
00:06:35,620 --> 00:06:37,410
These are the ingredients that go into it,

216
00:06:37,410 --> 00:06:38,810
and the ratio of the ingredients.

217
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:40,650
This is the order of mixing them,

218
00:06:40,650 --> 00:06:41,770
right? I need to mix the,

219
00:06:42,230 --> 00:06:43,810
the dry ingredients over here,

220
00:06:43,830 --> 00:06:45,010
the liquid ingredients over here.

221
00:06:45,010 --> 00:06:45,970
Then I mix 'em together.

222
00:06:46,500 --> 00:06:48,410
Maybe I overmix 'em or underm mix them.

223
00:06:48,410 --> 00:06:49,050
Maybe I air them,

224
00:06:49,430 --> 00:06:52,730
use some aeration technique with the eggs to,

225
00:06:52,750 --> 00:06:54,290
to make a nice icing or something.

226
00:06:54,470 --> 00:06:56,770
So you have all these different steps,

227
00:06:56,770 --> 00:06:57,490
right? You have,

228
00:06:57,750 --> 00:06:59,850
you have oven ingredients,

229
00:07:00,020 --> 00:07:01,890
steps, the type of pan you need,

230
00:07:01,890 --> 00:07:02,410
things like that.

231
00:07:02,750 --> 00:07:03,970
So all these different things.

232
00:07:04,110 --> 00:07:05,610
At the end of that process,

233
00:07:05,620 --> 00:07:07,490
right? At the end of those inputs being put into it,

234
00:07:07,790 --> 00:07:09,050
you have the output of a cake.

235
00:07:09,660 --> 00:07:10,770
Pickleball, same thing,

236
00:07:10,770 --> 00:07:11,650
right? You're in a,

237
00:07:11,790 --> 00:07:12,970
in a tough nine,

238
00:07:12,970 --> 00:07:13,650
nine match,

239
00:07:13,670 --> 00:07:14,690
and you,

240
00:07:14,830 --> 00:07:15,130
you know,

241
00:07:15,130 --> 00:07:17,130
you just got lobbed over your partner.

242
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:18,290
What do you do?

243
00:07:18,290 --> 00:07:20,570
Right? So what's the recipe for the LOBs?

244
00:07:20,710 --> 00:07:22,490
That's why inside our Pickleball Academy,

245
00:07:22,550 --> 00:07:25,170
we have a course on LOB coverage and defense,

246
00:07:25,170 --> 00:07:27,890
right? Because that'll help you know what the recipe is to

247
00:07:27,890 --> 00:07:31,570
cover. LOBs certain recipes that are very,

248
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:32,410
very big picture,

249
00:07:32,460 --> 00:07:33,490
right? For instance,

250
00:07:33,490 --> 00:07:34,170
if you're gonna bake,

251
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,690
it's good to have an understanding of like maybe sifting flour,

252
00:07:38,330 --> 00:07:40,330
understanding different types of flour can be helpful.

253
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,890
Cake flour versus bread flour versus all-purpose flour versus self-Rising flour,

254
00:07:44,580 --> 00:07:46,210
understand different types of pans.

255
00:07:46,210 --> 00:07:49,250
Metal pan versus glass pans can not work exactly the same

256
00:07:49,460 --> 00:07:52,770
convection oven versus a cooking or a regular baking oven,

257
00:07:53,140 --> 00:07:54,690
those all are gonna be different.

258
00:07:54,930 --> 00:07:55,690
Conventional oven,

259
00:07:55,730 --> 00:07:57,250
I should have said conventional versus convection.

260
00:07:57,250 --> 00:08:00,650
So you're gonna have all those different understandings of baking and

261
00:08:00,650 --> 00:08:02,890
Pickleball. It's similar in the sense that you start understanding the

262
00:08:02,890 --> 00:08:03,650
framework of the game,

263
00:08:03,650 --> 00:08:05,130
right? You understand how it's constructed,

264
00:08:05,590 --> 00:08:06,850
you understand advantage,

265
00:08:06,850 --> 00:08:08,970
disadvantage, differences on serve and return.

266
00:08:09,570 --> 00:08:10,010
A lot of,

267
00:08:10,130 --> 00:08:11,090
a lot of stuff in Pickleball,

268
00:08:11,190 --> 00:08:12,570
and let me pause here for a second.

269
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:14,930
That is one of the beauties of our sport.

270
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:16,130
That is one of the,

271
00:08:17,230 --> 00:08:20,090
one of the aspects of Pickleball that makes it so attractive.

272
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:21,570
It's that it is a very,

273
00:08:21,830 --> 00:08:23,010
it, it's not,

274
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:25,370
it's not impossible to,

275
00:08:25,630 --> 00:08:26,490
to learn all of it,

276
00:08:26,790 --> 00:08:27,810
but there's a lot to learn.

277
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,290
There's a lot of small pieces that are very achievable and

278
00:08:30,290 --> 00:08:30,850
very doable,

279
00:08:31,470 --> 00:08:33,170
but they're,

280
00:08:33,170 --> 00:08:33,930
they're interesting,

281
00:08:33,930 --> 00:08:36,290
right? Sort of like if you got really in heavy into

282
00:08:36,290 --> 00:08:38,210
baking, you'd learn all about laminating and,

283
00:08:38,230 --> 00:08:38,490
you know,

284
00:08:38,490 --> 00:08:41,970
all sorts of other techniques that you can learn in baking.

285
00:08:42,030 --> 00:08:44,090
If you want to go that deep Pickleball is the same.

286
00:08:44,130 --> 00:08:45,570
You can go as deep as you want with this sport.

287
00:08:45,990 --> 00:08:46,450
And so,

288
00:08:46,710 --> 00:08:47,570
but, but you know,

289
00:08:47,570 --> 00:08:50,850
it's super helpful to have an understanding of framework,

290
00:08:50,850 --> 00:08:51,250
right? Of,

291
00:08:51,430 --> 00:08:51,730
you know,

292
00:08:51,730 --> 00:08:53,250
how the oven interacts with,

293
00:08:53,510 --> 00:08:53,810
you know,

294
00:08:53,810 --> 00:08:54,450
or for instance,

295
00:08:54,510 --> 00:08:55,290
baking Powder,

296
00:08:55,290 --> 00:08:55,970
baking soda,

297
00:08:55,970 --> 00:08:58,050
right? The difference between those two and how to use 'em,

298
00:08:58,070 --> 00:09:00,810
that's really gonna help your baking Pickleball is the same way.

299
00:09:00,810 --> 00:09:03,130
Understanding the importance of the for shot and how you use

300
00:09:03,130 --> 00:09:06,130
the for shot on the return side in order to meet

301
00:09:06,130 --> 00:09:08,130
your objectives is really gonna help you play better.

302
00:09:08,130 --> 00:09:10,610
Pickleball. That understanding of the for shot,

303
00:09:10,610 --> 00:09:12,570
that understanding of serve side and,

304
00:09:12,670 --> 00:09:16,850
and return side or advantage disadvantage and things like that are

305
00:09:16,990 --> 00:09:17,970
all what,

306
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:19,570
they're all inputs,

307
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:20,970
they're all recipes,

308
00:09:20,970 --> 00:09:23,010
right? They're all parts of the recipe Pickleball.

309
00:09:23,350 --> 00:09:25,050
And the better that you understand those,

310
00:09:25,190 --> 00:09:29,130
the better that you can understand how the,

311
00:09:29,230 --> 00:09:32,010
the, the ingredients work and how you put 'em together step

312
00:09:32,130 --> 00:09:33,170
by step and things like that,

313
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:34,090
then guess what?

314
00:09:34,560 --> 00:09:35,170
Your cake,

315
00:09:35,690 --> 00:09:39,490
IE your Pickleball is going to be much better.

316
00:09:40,270 --> 00:09:41,850
So the next natural question is,

317
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,690
well, where do I find these recipes?

318
00:09:45,390 --> 00:09:48,050
Now that is tricky and,

319
00:09:48,350 --> 00:09:50,650
and it's gonna seem like I'm log rolling here.

320
00:09:51,250 --> 00:09:51,850
I promise you,

321
00:09:51,930 --> 00:09:53,250
I am not trying to log roll here.

322
00:09:53,310 --> 00:09:54,610
If I knew of other sources,

323
00:09:54,830 --> 00:09:55,930
I'd be happy to share 'em with you.

324
00:09:56,630 --> 00:09:58,250
I'm gonna tell you what's really difficult to do.

325
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:02,290
It's really difficult to get the recipe from YouTube because YouTube

326
00:10:02,510 --> 00:10:02,930
is like,

327
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,930
it'd be like having a series of YouTube videos.

328
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,450
Like one YouTube video says like,

329
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,810
this is how you get the most chocolatey cake ever.

330
00:10:08,810 --> 00:10:11,290
And then it talks about cocoa some,

331
00:10:11,290 --> 00:10:12,650
right? Talks about cocoa's,

332
00:10:12,650 --> 00:10:13,250
different coco's,

333
00:10:13,250 --> 00:10:13,650
for instance.

334
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,050
Then you have another video that maybe talks about how the

335
00:10:17,050 --> 00:10:20,170
element in the oven works with the fans to create convection.

336
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:21,970
Then you have another video that says like,

337
00:10:21,970 --> 00:10:23,890
three tips to better flower sifting.

338
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:25,610
Okay? It's fine,

339
00:10:25,990 --> 00:10:26,330
you know,

340
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:27,690
good to know about flower sifting,

341
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:28,730
good to know about the oven,

342
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,210
good to know about cocoa,

343
00:10:30,590 --> 00:10:31,370
but I can't,

344
00:10:31,450 --> 00:10:32,610
I don't know how to make a cake yet,

345
00:10:32,610 --> 00:10:33,650
right? It's not like,

346
00:10:33,650 --> 00:10:33,890
you know,

347
00:10:33,890 --> 00:10:34,530
like, like,

348
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,330
like recipe videos will go through all the steps in,

349
00:10:38,510 --> 00:10:40,010
in the recipe 'cause it's very limited,

350
00:10:40,010 --> 00:10:41,370
right? But they're not gonna teach you how to become a

351
00:10:41,370 --> 00:10:43,210
master chef or a master baker in that video.

352
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,930
Same thing with Pickleball YouTube videos,

353
00:10:46,110 --> 00:10:46,410
you know,

354
00:10:46,410 --> 00:10:46,930
little pieces,

355
00:10:46,930 --> 00:10:48,490
little pieces about little pieces of this,

356
00:10:48,630 --> 00:10:50,810
but they don't give you the recipe that you want in

357
00:10:50,810 --> 00:10:54,130
order to have the output that you're hoping for as a

358
00:10:54,130 --> 00:10:54,810
Pickleball player.

359
00:10:55,700 --> 00:10:56,210
There is,

360
00:10:56,330 --> 00:10:56,570
I mean,

361
00:10:56,570 --> 00:10:57,290
you in theory,

362
00:10:57,350 --> 00:10:58,050
you can do it.

363
00:10:58,070 --> 00:10:58,370
You know,

364
00:10:58,370 --> 00:10:59,170
that's what cj,

365
00:10:59,550 --> 00:11:01,890
CJ Johnson and I did for hours and years.

366
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:02,730
That hours,

367
00:11:02,940 --> 00:11:04,890
hours and hours and hours over years.

368
00:11:06,070 --> 00:11:07,650
And with our own study and our own,

369
00:11:07,790 --> 00:11:11,410
our own thinking about the game we came up with the

370
00:11:11,410 --> 00:11:13,890
recipe and the recipe that we came up with,

371
00:11:13,950 --> 00:11:15,290
we publish it in a,

372
00:11:15,430 --> 00:11:16,970
in a course called the Pickleball System.

373
00:11:17,150 --> 00:11:19,010
That's the beauty of the Pickleball system,

374
00:11:19,010 --> 00:11:24,490
is it provides the inputs that will then help you achieve

375
00:11:24,910 --> 00:11:27,090
the outputs that you want when you play Pickleball.

376
00:11:27,470 --> 00:11:29,210
So if you take a couple things away from this podcast,

377
00:11:29,570 --> 00:11:30,970
I hope you take the following away,

378
00:11:31,340 --> 00:11:32,250
understand that,

379
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:33,530
that it's,

380
00:11:33,560 --> 00:11:34,850
it's fine to one output,

381
00:11:34,850 --> 00:11:37,650
right? It's fine to wanna know what to do in,

382
00:11:37,750 --> 00:11:38,730
in different situations.

383
00:11:38,730 --> 00:11:40,850
It's fine to wanna know how not to make as many

384
00:11:40,850 --> 00:11:41,930
errors in your game.

385
00:11:42,560 --> 00:11:45,970
It's fine to want to know better partner play concepts,

386
00:11:46,150 --> 00:11:46,690
all these things,

387
00:11:46,690 --> 00:11:49,170
right? That's why we have academy courses that cover those different

388
00:11:49,170 --> 00:11:52,050
areas, you know?

389
00:11:52,310 --> 00:11:53,370
But, but Here's the thing.

390
00:11:53,390 --> 00:11:55,130
So if you want output,

391
00:11:56,310 --> 00:11:57,570
you need input,

392
00:11:57,630 --> 00:11:58,730
and you need an actor,

393
00:11:58,740 --> 00:12:00,530
right? What I want you to,

394
00:12:00,710 --> 00:12:04,130
to, to take off the table is that you're the problem

395
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:05,690
because you are not the problem.

396
00:12:06,230 --> 00:12:08,450
You are not the reason why you're not having the outputs

397
00:12:08,450 --> 00:12:08,810
that you want.

398
00:12:09,590 --> 00:12:11,890
The re what's holding you back from the outputs that you

399
00:12:11,890 --> 00:12:14,330
want is lack of clear inputs.

400
00:12:14,330 --> 00:12:15,010
It's lack of,

401
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:19,290
lack of clarity on the recipe that you're gonna follow as

402
00:12:19,330 --> 00:12:22,090
a Pickleball player in order to play really amazing Pickleball.

403
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,210
Because here's the other thing I forgot to touch on earlier

404
00:12:24,210 --> 00:12:24,770
about YouTube,

405
00:12:25,190 --> 00:12:28,770
is that YouTube will just overwhelm you with noise,

406
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:29,490
with just,

407
00:12:29,560 --> 00:12:30,330
it's too much.

408
00:12:30,750 --> 00:12:31,050
You know,

409
00:12:31,050 --> 00:12:31,450
it's like,

410
00:12:31,710 --> 00:12:34,890
it, it'd be like going back to the recipe metaphor slash

411
00:12:34,890 --> 00:12:36,530
analogy. It'd be like,

412
00:12:36,670 --> 00:12:38,570
you, you all you wanna do is bake a cake,

413
00:12:38,830 --> 00:12:40,810
but you're the one video's talking about,

414
00:12:41,150 --> 00:12:41,450
you know,

415
00:12:41,450 --> 00:12:43,210
how to slice bell peppers better,

416
00:12:43,210 --> 00:12:45,050
and the other video's talking about how to pick a watermelon

417
00:12:45,050 --> 00:12:46,970
and the other video's telling you how to see a steak

418
00:12:46,970 --> 00:12:47,650
or something like that.

419
00:12:48,110 --> 00:12:48,650
And you're like,

420
00:12:48,750 --> 00:12:50,010
all I wanna do is bake.

421
00:12:50,330 --> 00:12:51,330
I wanna bake a,

422
00:12:51,610 --> 00:12:52,730
a chocolate cake.

423
00:12:53,270 --> 00:12:55,730
And so you're overwhelmed with all this stuff that has nothing

424
00:12:55,750 --> 00:12:57,570
to do with what it is that you wanna do as

425
00:12:57,570 --> 00:12:58,210
a Pickleball player,

426
00:12:58,210 --> 00:13:00,010
because I'm gonna tell you that a lot of the YouTube

427
00:13:00,010 --> 00:13:00,690
content out there,

428
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,090
it's not that there's anything wrong with the content itself,

429
00:13:03,090 --> 00:13:04,930
right? Like the content itself is lacking,

430
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,170
it's that the content isn't appropriate or applicable to where you

431
00:13:09,170 --> 00:13:09,690
are in the game.

432
00:13:09,820 --> 00:13:11,850
Again, you're trying to make a chocolate cake and they're trying

433
00:13:11,850 --> 00:13:12,610
to teach you how to,

434
00:13:12,830 --> 00:13:15,010
how to so eat a steak or how to,

435
00:13:15,070 --> 00:13:15,450
how to,

436
00:13:15,550 --> 00:13:15,850
you know,

437
00:13:15,850 --> 00:13:17,130
make barbecue chicken or something.

438
00:13:17,510 --> 00:13:20,570
And so you end up just all over the place within

439
00:13:20,570 --> 00:13:21,010
that process.

440
00:13:21,470 --> 00:13:22,170
But it's not you,

441
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,930
it's the inputs that are messing you up.

442
00:13:25,390 --> 00:13:27,690
So if you wanna improve your outputs,

443
00:13:28,420 --> 00:13:31,510
give some thought to how am I gonna improve my inputs?

444
00:13:32,290 --> 00:13:32,710
And if,

445
00:13:32,770 --> 00:13:33,070
you know,

446
00:13:33,070 --> 00:13:36,350
you happen to be blessed in living in a community with

447
00:13:36,470 --> 00:13:36,790
a good,

448
00:13:37,890 --> 00:13:38,230
you know,

449
00:13:39,070 --> 00:13:41,590
Pickleball pro or Pickleball professional or something you can work with,

450
00:13:41,590 --> 00:13:42,670
fantastic. You know,

451
00:13:42,670 --> 00:13:43,350
that's great.

452
00:13:43,590 --> 00:13:43,830
'cause they,

453
00:13:44,070 --> 00:13:44,670
they are out there.

454
00:13:44,820 --> 00:13:46,950
Unfortunately, there's a lot of 'em out there that aren't that

455
00:13:46,950 --> 00:13:47,430
great. But,

456
00:13:47,450 --> 00:13:47,750
you know,

457
00:13:48,530 --> 00:13:48,870
if you,

458
00:13:48,930 --> 00:13:49,390
if you're,

459
00:13:49,650 --> 00:13:50,550
if you know that this,

460
00:13:50,820 --> 00:13:52,270
this pro is good and you wanna work 'em,

461
00:13:52,270 --> 00:13:52,790
that's fantastic.

462
00:13:53,780 --> 00:13:56,390
Otherwise, I highly recommend that you give us a,

463
00:13:56,390 --> 00:13:57,830
they give us a try at the Pickleball system.

464
00:13:58,010 --> 00:13:59,430
We have a course launching in,

465
00:13:59,590 --> 00:14:01,510
in, I think it's like six weeks now,

466
00:14:01,510 --> 00:14:01,950
something like that.

467
00:14:01,950 --> 00:14:03,190
It's in sometime in March.

468
00:14:04,170 --> 00:14:04,790
But check out,

469
00:14:04,790 --> 00:14:05,790
we'll have our miniseries.

470
00:14:05,790 --> 00:14:07,150
You can join us in our miniseries.

471
00:14:07,630 --> 00:14:09,230
You'll learn a lot during the miniseries,

472
00:14:09,670 --> 00:14:11,710
a lot more about the chocolate cake of Pickleball.

473
00:14:12,010 --> 00:14:13,270
And then you'll,

474
00:14:14,130 --> 00:14:17,230
you'll make a decision whether the Pickleball system is right for

475
00:14:17,230 --> 00:14:18,910
you, so that at the end of the day,

476
00:14:18,910 --> 00:14:21,750
you can get the inputs that you need in order to

477
00:14:21,750 --> 00:14:23,910
get the outputs that you desire.

478
00:14:24,780 --> 00:14:25,940
