Soccer Mastery: The little things that make a big difference: Habits, Secrets and Strategies that will escalate your game to the next level

by Chest Dugger

What do Pearl Harbor, McDonald's, Graceland and a soccer game have in common?

The mind thinks between 60,000 – 80,000 thoughts a day. That's an average of 2500 – 3,300 thoughts per hour.

Yet most of those thoughts happen unconsciously and dictate your behavior.

People act based on their unconscious habits and you end up…

…biting your nails while you wait for the next epiphany
…avoiding eye contact with the people next to you on the bus
…eating junk food to reward yourself for the hard work you have done

Not all habits are bad, but a lot of them can be the reason why you are stuck in the same routine and making the same mistakes over and over again in your soccer game.

Soccer is a game of habits. It´s as simple as 1+1. The right habits create players who win. And the wrong habits get punished once your opponent intercepts the careless pass you continue to make over and over again.

Mastering your soccer game means stepping out of the hamster wheel you´ve been living in for years.

If you want to instantly level up your game, all you need to do is follow the simple formula of strategies to improve your habits you never even notice.

Being a winning soccer player requires more than kicking the ball on a green grass field. Soccer is a lifestyle and shows up in many unexpected areas of your life.

You will be speechless once you discover how you can improve your soccer skills while at work, while brushing your teeth or while waiting for the bus.

Mastering the most popular sport in the world requires more than using muscle strength and the right technique…a lot of people are not even aware of what part of their game they need to work on.

Soccer is one of the fastest, most unpredictable and complex games in the world. Therefore, you have to make sure you always stay in control and think one step ahead of your opponent.

In “Soccer Mastery“, you´ll discover:

How a “happy meal“ turned into a horror meal for soccer players The magical “hawk-eye” of soccer to prevent failure How numbers rule the game Which tool your coach uses to predict the game (one hint: he doesn´t need to be a soccer expert) How to be in the right place at the right time and turn a pass into a winning goal The most overlooked factors to help you reach the next league Why Sergio Ramos is the Real Madrid center back and how you can transfer this knowledge into your next game Exactly what scouts are looking in a future World Cup player How a mug and a toothpick can maximize your peripheral vision

And much more.

Even if you don’t plan to make it to the UEFA Champions League, you still want to be the best player on the soccer field.

If you are passionate enough about the game, you don´t want to trust your gut when it comes to the next match and you want to ensure that you are taking the right steps to move your game to the next level…

Soccer Mastery, by Chest Dugger, offers an intricate weave of habits, secrets, and strategies aimed at elevating your soccer game. This book unpacks the minutiae that shape a soccer player's journey from grassroots to greatness. Dugger's methodical breakdown of various game aspects, from player analytics and nutrition to advanced offensive and defensive tactics, provides a comprehensive toolkit for any soccer enthusiast keen on refining their skills or understanding the sport's deeper mechanics.

Dugger's writing shines when it discusses the granular details of soccer tactics and player development. His ability to simplify complex strategies and present them in an actionable format is one thing I particularly enjoyed about this book. While the book employs a technical vocabulary that reflects its thorough analysis, it remains accessible to those interested in soccer's nuances. The inclusion of historical and philosophical asides adds depth to the narrative, enriching the reader's understanding, though it may occasionally shift focus from the core practical advice. This approach underscores the author's comprehensive knowledge and passion for soccer, making it a valuable resource for dedicated enthusiasts looking to deepen their understanding of the game.

The book excels in its practical applications, offering drills, real-life examples, and actionable advice that are likely to benefit players at all levels. The focus on the game's mental and physical aspects, highlighting the importance of cognitive skills like tactical awareness alongside physical drills, ensures a holistic approach to soccer training. These sections are theoretically sound and backed by Dugger's extensive experience and evident passion for coaching.

Soccer Mastery is a treasure trove of insights for the soccer player or coach who is intent on dissecting the game's finer points and leveraging small, strategic adjustments for significant improvement.

This is much better written than I expected a freebie to be. It's a pretty basic intro, and while it's short, it somehow still manages to be a little wandering. I'm not sure if it's actually a book about the little things or an overview of what you'll want to learn early on.
