PLAYERS: Your body language conveys a message to your teammates and coaches. It can show others what kind of attitude, energy, toughness, focus, unselfishness, and maturity you possess. Your body language never whispers ... it screams!
“It’s not what you are capable of; it’s what you are willing to do. Plenty of people are capable. Fewer people are willing.” - Mike Tomlin
True greatness isn't just about capability; it's about the willingness to act on it. Many have potential, few choose to realize it.
FOCUS ON WHAT YOU CAN CONTROL!
“The more concerned we become over the things we can't control, the less we will do with the things we can control.” – John Wooden
