I teach & coach to help students become the best version of themselves through a consistent commitment to integrity, resilience and humility. #MyWhy

Summer Book 2: “The spirit of evil thrives on disquiet, because inner turmoil distracts the soul from getting lost in loving and praising God.”

[Tim Kenney @CoachTimKenney]

Summer Book #1: “…[I]f we live in fear and never try, if we never attempt something scary or daunting, we can’t know what limits we possess. If we don’t push ourselves, the only limits we face are the ones we place on ourselves, the ones we fabricate in our minds.”

“We are looking for a balance: passion for work that makes it a calling, but without tipping into workaholism that extinguishes the sense of meaning and simply fuels an addiction to worldly success.” @arthurbrooks

“Achieving success of any kind in life demands resilience. Like physical fitness, this kind of mental fitness cannot be purchased in a bottle but must be developed through consistent effort over an extended period of time.” @IronCowboyJames

This is great leadership from Pete Crow-Armstrong! PCA hit a clutch triple and then tied the game on a sac fly.

On the sac fly, he didn’t slide because Matt Shaw didn’t tell him to. After the play, PCA made sure to let Shaw know what he did wrong and the Cubs went onto win the game 👀

“With the self-esteem movement, we flipped the script, trying to give self-esteem without the accompanying action and work to validate it. Even worse, we shifted the focus away from the joy of actually doing the work and toward external praise and rewards.” @stevemagness

[Tim Kenney @CoachTimKenney]

“Lasting self-esteem doesn’t come from being told that we are great. It comes from doing the actual work and making real connections.” @stevemagness

“The trouble is, we don’t exercise [courage, fortitude, and endurance] because we don’t appreciate them. Show me one person who cares how they act, someone for whom success is less important than the manner in which it is achieved.”

[Tim Kenney @CoachTimKenney]

“For the only safe harbor in this life’s tossing, troubled sea is to refuse to be bothered about what the future will bring and to stand ready and confident, squaring the breast to take without skulking or flinching whatever fortune hurls at us.”

[Tim Kenney @CoachTimKenney]

“…[B]ut if it is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law. Let your life be a counter friction to stop the machine.”

[Tim Kenney @CoachTimKenney]

“Our whole life is startlingly moral. There is never an instant’s truce between virtue and vice. Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”

[Tim Kenney @CoachTimKenney]

“The body is an extremely practical system. You have to let it experience intermittent pain over time, and then the body will get the point.”

[Tim Kenney @CoachTimKenney]

“Human felicity is produced not so much by great pieces of good fortune that seldom happen, as by little advantages that occur every day.”

[Tim Kenney @CoachTimKenney]

“I grew convinc’d that truth, sincerity, and integrity in dealings between man and man were of the utmost importance to the felicity of life.”

[Tim Kenney @CoachTimKenney]

Awesome opportunity to meet @Ian_Book12 and hear his story. Winningest QB in @NDFootball history. #GoIrish

“What a privilege to be tired from the work you once prayed for.”
