How to become a trustworthy player that will get minutes:

- take care of the ball
- dominate the role your coach has given you - whatever that is
- don't blow the scouting report
- show up and be on time
- impact the game in ways that don't show up in the box score

What else?

@SportPsychTips Clark Lea shares the secret to process over outcome.

"Stop focusing on the outcome and start looking at what you are learning and how you're growing."

"Don't find the job, find the passion."

Stop chasing results - chase purpose.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

As an athlete, you need to know your “why.”

Why do you play sports?
What are your goals?
What motivates you to work hard?

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s rule on complaining:

[JIM BOONE 🏀 @CoachJimBoone]

“The culture precedes positive results. It doesn't get tacked on as an afterthought on your way to the victory stand. Champions behave like champions before they're champions; they have a winning standard of performance before they are winners.” ~ Bill Walsh, Super Bowl Champion Coach, NFL HOF

BAD PLAYERS don’t take much seriously.

AVERAGE PLAYERS take games seriously.

GOOD PLAYERS take practice & games seriously.

GREAT PLAYERS take academics, nutrition, warm-ups, ind. work, weight room, conditioning, film, practice & games seriously.

CULTURE FRAMEWORK - DNA

D = Daily Standards
N = Next Best Action
A = Accountability

- Daily Standards are the way we do things (and don’t do things)
- Next Best Action is how we respond to adversity/things not going our way
- Accountability is how we handle D or N not happening

Get clear on all 3 of these to improve your culture.

[The Winning Difference @thewinningdiff1]

Earn it - don't expect it.
Showing up and doing what's required isn't earning it.
If you put in the same work that everyone else does, that's average.
Earning it requires a different level of sacrifice, discipline, and effort that most are not willing to give.

[Coach Mac 🏀 @BballCoachMac]

"Practice like you've never won.

Play like you've never lost"

[Coach Matt Dennis @CoachMattDennis]

One thing I’ve learned as a coach: expectations matter. But before I react to a player being late, I need to check on the person first. The behavior comes second.

Sometimes the right first question isn’t, “Why are you late?”

It’s, “Are you okay?”

As coaches, we see players on the court, but we do not always see what they are carrying off of it.

Accountability and expectations matter.
So do empathy, care, and understanding.

You never know what someone is going through unless you ask.

Great leaders become a catalyst for others to believe in themselves.

Weak leaders become a catalyst for others to doubt themselves.

Be about seeing, believing in and activating the best in others.

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

Real discipline is remembering what’s important. On your best days you’re committed to your sport. On your good days you’re committed to your teammates. On your worst days you must remain committed to yourself/your commitment. It’s not easy, but then again, discipline rarely is!

[Dennis Marshall @mar5hallhoops]

If you are a good HS player, a great piece of advice I can give you is allow yourself to be coached. If you're alreeady good, let your self to be pushed, to be held accountable, and made to feel uncomfortable at times. That's how you become a college player and some level of pro.

A big factor that trainers need to emphasize is pounding the basketball when you dribble

If you watch the best guards, they are trying to “Break the Floor”with every dribble

This is especially important for taller guards
