Sport psychology has created a false dichotomy between process-focused and outcome-focused approaches to mental training. This opinion piece argues for an integrated model using the metaphor of the Persian kebab, where outcome and process are interconnected elements of a unified whole. Drawing from practical coaching experience and flow theory, the Kebab Model proposes that optimal performance occurs when athletes maintain clear outcome vision while simultaneously engaging in process excellence—much like the distinct but inseparable components of a perfectly prepared kebab.
