Make the most of the season by following these simple guidelines
Christopher McNabb • February 21, 2025
The new season is a great reason to make and keep resolutions. Whether it’s eating right or cleaning out the garage, here are some tips for making and keeping resolutions.
Make a list
Check the list regularly
Reward yourself
Think positively
Lists are great ways to stay on track. Write down some big things you want to accomplish and some smaller things, too.
Check the list regularly
Don’t forget to check in and see how you’re doing. Just because you don’t achieve the big goals right away doesn’t mean you’re not making progress.
Reward yourself
When you succeed in achieving a goal, be it a big one or a small one, make sure to pat yourself on the back.
Think positively
Positive thinking is a major factor in success. So instead of mulling over things that didn’t go quite right, remind yourself of things that did.
At Discovery Gymnastics, we believe gymnastics is more than learning skills—it’s about building character, confidence, and strong relationships. One of the most important parts of that journey is respecting your coach . Why Respect Matters Gymnastics coaches work hard to create a safe, encouraging, and structured environment. They’re not just teaching cartwheels and handstands—they’re helping athletes develop discipline, confidence, and lifelong habits. Respect allows coaches to do their job well and helps athletes grow to their fullest potential. Coaches Want the Best for Every Athlete Behind every correction, every drill, and every repetition is a coach who genuinely wants each gymnast to succeed. They celebrate your child’s progress, support them through setbacks, and push them when they need it. Respect keeps that partnership strong. Gymnasts Thrive with Teamwork When athletes listen, show effort, and follow instructions, they learn faster and stay safer. Respect isn’t just about behavior—it’s about trust. Trusting that your coach sees what you’re ready for. Trusting their experience. Trusting the process. A Two-Way Street Coaches also respect their athletes by giving clear feedback, setting appropriate expectations, and cheering them on every step of the way. A positive gym culture grows when everyone—coaches, parents, and gymnasts—communicates with kindness and patience. Setting a Great Example Parents play a huge role in modeling respect. Encouragement, patience, and positivity help your gymnast build resilience and confidence. When they hear and see you supporting their coaches, they learn to do the same. Together, We Build Champions Respect doesn’t just make better gymnasts—it makes better people. At Discovery Gymnastics, we’re proud to create an environment where athletes grow not only in skill, but also in character. With teamwork, effort, and mutual respect, there’s no limit to what our gymnasts can achieve.
