Don Swartz Looking for a Quantum Leap | ASCA Talk #002

This week's ASCA Talk comes from Hall of Fame Coach, Don Swartz. These come out every other Wednesday. Chuck Warner believes it might just be the best talk in ASCA history! Coach Don Swartz discusses the concept of a "quantum leap" in performance, both in the scientific and colloquial sense, and explores the three key ingredients necessary for achieving such a leap. Key takeaways: 1. A quantum leap is a dramatic improvement in performance that is out of the ordinary and not anticipated. 2. The three key ingredients for achieving a quantum leap are "Nonsense," "The beginner's mind", and "The dance within the game." 3. Creative minds are those who venture boldly into unexplored territory beyond the barrier of the obvious.
