Technical Advice
A Note on Technique
While our primary focus is on the mental game and flow state, we recognize that technique is the foundation upon which everything else is built.
Our Philosophy
Technique is the foundation, but flow is the ceiling. You need solid technique to reach elite level, but mental mastery is what takes you beyond.
Our Perspective
You Don't Need to Master Everything
You don't need to master all techniques, but understanding the full palette of possibilities helps you:
- ✅ Know what's possible
- ✅ Make informed choices about what to develop
- ✅ Appreciate the game at a deeper level
- ✅ Understand what elite players can do

Remember: The goal isn't to master everything. It's to have enough technical foundation that you can enter the zone and let your body choose the right throw naturally.
