Overprotected kids become unprepared adults.

Dawn Staley nailed it.🔥

You can’t shelter your child from every hard moment and then expect them to handle adversity when it counts.

Hard is the lesson.

Not everyone gets a trophy…You have to earn it!

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

Geno Auriemma shares how he explains success to his players and why showing up isn't enough.

"If you go to class and you do average work, you're gonna get a C. That's why it's called average."

"If you want a B, you have to do more work. If you want an A, you have to do even more work and you have to give up stuff."

You get what you earn in life.

"You have to sacrifice. Maybe you can't do all the things that everybody else does."

It means if you want more then you have to be willing to do more.

"If you're just happy getting Bs all your life, there's nothing wrong with that either. But you're never gonna get the satisfaction of what it feels like to get an A."

Then he connected it to basketball:
"If you just wanna be average, then you do average work. If you wanna be a little bit above average then you do a little more work."

"If you wanna get As in basketball, then you gotta do stuff that other people aren't willing to do - especially if you have the talent like we do. We have talent."

It means bring a mindset of excellence to everything that you do. Excellence isn't the goal - it's the standard you set.

Then he called out the entitlement problem:
"Some of these younger guys coming out of high school, man, they wanna show up and go, 'I'm here. Where's my 3.7?'"

"Like my father used to say, 'I got your 3.7 right here.'"

Showing up doesn't earn you anything. Doing the work does.

You get the grade you earn - in school, in basketball, and in life.

It's easy to be average...successful people look to compete in everything they do.

“Now we’re just supposed to hug and kiss everybody. You know what? Do your job right. Go to class and you won’t hear about not going to class. Kids have so many distractions they don’t stay focused on the task at hand. Accountability is going to be big until I leave,” Tom Izzo

🚨#BREAKING: A former Winston-Salem NC firefighter, Robert Grier, who turned 104-years-old today, received a special surprise for his birthday...

A massive number of firetrucks paraded in front of his front porch to say happy birthday!

Mr Grier was one of the first 8 Black firefighters ever to join the fire department in Winston-Salem and served for 30 years.

Robert Grier joined the Winston-Salem Fire Department in 1951, more than a decade before racial segregation was outlawed in the United States.

When asked if it was hard to integrate he said,

"Matter of fact, I think we had fun integrating. We all got together and decided we were going to do this."

What most legacy media outlets left out, however, is that Grier said that his unit NEVER fought about race, and they started each day with a devotional and prayer..

"The only answer I know is trust in God and do what you're supposed to do," Grier said. "Love each other even though you are rejected as we were. Just keep going and ignore it. Guess who will win? You will win. You put God in front of you and go forward."

You won't hear this in the legacy media!!!

Happy 104th Birthday Mr. Grier!!!! 🎉🥳
