God is Great, can’t wait to continue this journey! I’ve accepted a full ride scholarship to Rio Grande. Thank you to my family for all the support and thank you to Coach Arrowwood for this opportunity! @willhoman15 @TeamWildcatHGSL @coachAwood @URGmbb @CHCA_Eagles

Ted Williams said, “The hardest thing to do in baseball is to hit a round ball with a round bat, squarely.” In the movie, “For The Love of the Game”, Vin Scully quipped, “Tonight, he will make the fateful walk to the loneliest spot in the world, the pitching mound at Yankee Stadium.”  The proper physical mechanics of doing either are vital to peak performance but elite mental maturity is what will keep you there. “Inside The Diamond” by my friend Coach @KyleWatson_22 of @UCWV_Baseball and fellow author Coach @kevin_savage might be new to the younger athlete but surely can act as a refresher to the more veteran ball player. And for the eager parent that wishes the greatest levels of success for their child, it can be an eye-opening read that uncovers what is not taught in stereotypical pitching or hitting lessons. Kudos on penning this easy-to-read working manual for baseball players of any age! Order your copy here:

Good hitters don't need to "see one" in BP. They just get in the cage and start hitting. I said what I said.

Marcus Freeman said, "You can't talk your way into winning a National Championship. You can't talk your way into being a Hall of Famer...You got to work and you got to constantly focus on improvement." You have to show up and do the work. Your work ethic is something that you can control. • It means competing. • It means committing. • It means showing up consistently. People see success, but they don't see the hard work and preparation it takes. 5 Steps to Improve Your Work Ethic and Focus: 1. Be Intentional About How Your Work - Show up every day with a clear purpose on what you will prepare and why. Think about the quality of your practice, the details, and reflect on where to focus most. This approach ensures your working towards improvement and growth. 2. Show up Committed Every Day - Don't just participate, show up, and commit. It means compete and choose to go above-and-beyond every day. Have a positive attitude and dedicate yourself to what you are doing. When you're focused, present, and engaged that is when growth starts to happen. 3. Be Consistent - You have to be consistent with your habits and work ethic. It means committing to the process of improving and putting in the time. Success doesn't happen overnight, it's the result of consistently showing up and doing the work day in and day out. 4. Prepare Mentally and Physically - This means think about your physical and mental state when you are practicing and when you will perform. Understand what environment allows you to perform your best. Use mindfulness to think about the connection between your mind and body. 5. Create a Plan for When Obstacles Arise - Don’t just imagine the great outcome, visualize what may stop you from reaching it. Prepare for the obstacles. Write them down and plan how you’ll overcome them. This keeps you prepared and resilient when challenges come your way. Takeaway: Talent can you get you into many rooms, but it's your work ethic, focus, and attitude that keep you there. - - - The video comes from Marcus Freeman's interview with @thepivot. A great listen for all coaches, parents, teachers, and athletes out there! Follow me @coachajkings more posts on resilience, leadership, and mindset.

"They never care how much you know until they know how much you care." That was one of my go-to sayings as a baseball manager. But it wasn't just talk I proved it by showing up for my players every single day, and part of that was sending a daily email to inspire and encourage. CEOs have told me these messages changed their leadership. Coaches used them with their teams. The emails weren't fancy - just borrowed wisdom from authors I respect. But they were authentic. Real. From the heart. Just like baseball should be. I learned the hard way that life isn't about titles or stuff it's about being happy and making others happy. These daily emails became my way of spreading that joy. Every message ends with "Make a difference today. Love Clint." Because in the end, that's what matters most.
