Not one of my former players have ever said thank you for teaching them the skate rush, how to hook drop, or play press coverage. They do say thank you for the ACCOUNTABILITY, DISCIPLINE, ENCOURAGEMENT, STRUCTURE, DAILY CHALLENGES, and LOVE.

COMMITMENT carries us through the tough patches. Interest just fades away an cannot SUSTAIN.

4 types:
DROP OUTS- they just quit
COP OUTS - start but give excuses on why you can’t or why it can’t be done.
SELL OUTS - start with you but after experiencing adversity and hard times they can’t sustain and they flip and get negative.
ALL OUTS- maximum effort and attitude.

My 9 year old son Gavin told me last night that he thinks that DOUBTERS are good because they MAKE YOU WORK HARDER to prove yourself.
I smiled and agreed with him.
Today I want to thank Gavin for the idea and ALL THE DOUBTERS for adding FUEL TO THE FIRE.

If you’re willing to pay your physical dues and put in the time, if you refuse to give in no matter what, if you master the ability to keep on keeping on, then sooner or later you will run head-first into success. NOTHING IN THE WORLD CAN TAKE THE PLACE OF PERSISTENCE!

Success is not a grand-slam homerun. Success is hitting singles everyday. Concentrate on staying at bat and avoid making mistakes that detract from your performance. Be ready for good pitches and have the DISCIPLINE to be ready for them.

I used to think that it was all about being HAPPY. I now realize that it has nothing to do with being HAPPY. It’s about developing your JOY. JOY is authentic and from the heart. It’s LOVE BASED. And the best thing about OUR JOY is that no one can take it away from US

Coaching to me is not all about schemes, drills, image and definitely not a brand.
Those are tools of the craft.
What is it about to me is building a RELATIONSHIP and seeing how much you can get a player to GIVE OF THEMSELVES to the TEAme.

How to GET AFTER IT:
-Set a goal you can’t yet meet.
-Strive to improve your weaknesses.
-Get coaching on what are your specific problems. NO EGO!
-Practice relentlessly as hard as you can until you GET IT DONE! There is no quick fix!
-Set new goal you can’t meet.
