Nature's laws and the Laws of Accuracy

We live in an incredible universe governed by the many laws of nature.  You may aleady be familiar with some of the laws which operate in our physical world and help us understand mechanics, gravity, electromagnetism and thermal dynamics.  These laws give us an insight into how physical objects relate to each other.  They also provide us with a deeper understanding of how objects may interact in future settings.  With this ability to predict these future interactions, we can build machines and structures with a sense of confidence that the laws of physics will be upheld and work when we need them.  A glance at the wonderful technology around us is proof that these laws are both reliable and consistent.

As there are laws in physics which govern our physical world, so too are there laws in behavioural science which determine how effectively we learn, develop and perform skills.  Some of these behavioural laws have a direct impact on our ability to perform tasks accurately.  In 2005 and based on over 20 years of experience and research in the area of skill development and performance, I wrote the Laws of Accuracy to help us understand how we can develop a skill in order to achieve a high degree of precision.  Although Novak's Laws of Accuracy was originally aimed at assisting golfers improve their accuracy in shot-making, the laws can also be successfully applied to other sports and motor skills. 

Skill Calibration

When developing rocket-launchers scientists know in detail the angle of trajectory and force required to propel the rocket into the air in order to hit its target.  They use sophisticated computers to make the relevant calculations for this to occur with absolute precision.  Assuming that all of the necessary equipment is correctly 'calibrated', the rocket should hit its target with little to zero error.

Computer technology has come a long way during the past few decades but is still lightyears away from the sophistication and power of the human brain, the world's most powerful 'computer'.  It therefore makes sense that the degree of accuracy and precision possible in a golfer striking a ball, a football or soccer player kicking or passing a ball, or a baseball player pitching a ball, should also be comparable to, if not actually higher than, a computerised-machine. 

To attain this degree of precision and accuracy an athlete's skill needs to go through a similar process of calibration, referred to as Skill Calibration.  However, this process of Skill Calibration can only be achieved by applying Novak's Laws of Accuracy during a structured training regime.  Once a skill has been properly calibrated, golfers and other athletes are capable of making shots at their target with an increased element of precision, consistency and reliability.
