Thinking about climbing goals…

I've been mentally playing around with my climbing goals lately. I have a "big goal" of attempting an 11b by November. Underneath that goal I am interested in...

-improving my footwork

-listening to my body while I'm on the wall

-bouldering

-dipping my feet into coaching my friends...climbing alongside them for technical and emotional support like a very good friend does for me

-experimenting with routes that have holds that are challenging... that way when I experience them on an 11b I will be familiar with them

-taking part in my first outdoor climb

I guess you could call these “subgoals."

That said, it is my belief that by working on the goals underneath the "big goal,” I will in fact achieve that "big goal."

To be continued...
