Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted October 29, 2021 There is an article in the Register-Guard, (subscription needed) about applying the 1-0 mentality to daily life for Oregon football players. "It can really be boiled down to anything thing you're doing at any moment just take it 1-0," offensive lineman Dawson Jaramillo said. "When I wake up in the morning when I'm preparing my body for practice, I'm 1-0." "I'm 1-0 when I'm stretching, I'm 1-0 when I'm in the meeting room trying to take notes. If you can dominate every moment of every day, it is easy to go 1-0 on the day. But If you look at it as 'I want to be 1-0 on the day,' then it can get lost throughout the different things." Hmmmm. This sounds kinda familiar? I wonder where I've heard a similar philosophy? Let me give you a hint... 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haywarduck Moderator No. 4 Share Posted October 30, 2021 But what happens when you end up 0-1 against an inferior opponent. I don't get the 1-0 mentality. Win the day, stay focused on the process, I get. The idea you should think you are 1-0 just doesn't resonate, for me. I won't pull any punches, I just don't like it. I actually like the Navy Seal mentality, 'Yesterday Was The Easy Day,' think on that one. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
C J No. 5 Share Posted October 30, 2021 A more pertinent mantra to me is "win the play". Each play, each movement has to be won. It's the details on each snap of the ball that matter. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
