Gave one of my athletes this to read. He told me today that he had a flat tire. Instead of being a carrot he was a coffee bean. Easy read with a great message!

Very happy for Max and the World Series Championship! One of the best, most dedicated, hardest workers I’ve been around. Glad I had the chance to celebrate with him and some other great former players/people!

After 30+ years I still learn so much when I talk w/ my 1st strength coach & boss, Pete Martinelli. He was way ahead of his time in the field and helped build a path for many. Read about him & others in this book.

Average players want to be left alone. Good players want to be coached. Great players want the truth. Many say they want to be great but few totally commit to doing so. Consistent. Focused.…
Culture. If it’s not there it’s because you allowed it to fall or coached it that way. It takes a clearly defined vision & relentless, enthusiastic, daily pursuit of that vision. Leading, teaching & caring every single day!

New habits work for a short time, but how do we make new good habits last?
1. Redefine your new habits
2. Find the cues that made you accept the change
3. Reward yourself for past performance, then start over

Another great one gone to soon. Tommy McVay was as good as they come. Hadn’t had the chance to see him much lately but every time I did he made me feel like it had only been a few days and that I was still a Red Raider. He made everyone feel special and will always be remembered.
Snyder made history, not simply for his 16 principles, but for his unrelenting dedication to them. Time tested and proven to work.

showed success can happen when focused on accountability & sticking to the plan. Great share
@TheDaily_Coach
When
@CoachBillSnyder
took over at Kansas State, his initial focus wasn’t improving his talent base or overhauling the locker room. It was implementing the “16 Wildcat Goals for Success.”
These goals are still relevant to leaders of all walks.
In response to a question about how this news impacted his team, Mark Cuban considered how it impacts hourly workers and said they'll "put together a program for them."
“I never tell a running back, ‘Don’t fumble.’ I say, ‘Protect the ball.’ You’d be surprised how few coaches understand the simple psychology I’m using here. But in my opinion, it is vital psychology.” – Jimmy Johnson
Max teaching lessons on how to hold yourself accountable to be great! The student has become a teacher! I pick up something new from him each time I listen to him. Great episode

Einstein never intended for being simple to mean you did not know anything or were lacking in talent. His idea of simple was rooted in knowing everything, and perhaps most importantly knowing what to subtract.
It’s through elimination that we discover.

! With a great plan to see success whether you’re turning a setback into a comeback or just want to be better at whatever you do! Take It Personal!
If effort & discipline & doing things right didn’t matter in off season or practice then don’t get upset when it happens in games. If it’s allowed to happen then it will carry over. Undisciplined doesn’t win!
