Coaches who only correct never connect.

“Negative experiences without teaching kill morale.” - Nick Saban

The hard moment isn’t the problem.

Leaving it without a lesson is.

That’s what transformational coaching actually looks like.

Winning is a habit.

The Art of Coaching:

Be demanding.
Be disciplined.
Maintain Standards.

But do it through love.

This is one of the biggest challenges for a coach.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today.

Change has never been easy. It takes persistence and determination, and requires all of us to speak out and stand up for what we believe in. As we honor Dr. King today, let’s draw strength from his example, and do our part to build on his legacy.

[Kevin DeShazo @KevinDeShazo]

Leaders, your job isn't to change people.

It's to believe in who they could be at their best, help them to see and believe that, and empower them through support and challenge to become that version of themselves.

Believe in and fight for the highest good of those you lead.

Kirk Hinrich is 3rd on the Bulls' all-time leaders in assists and steals behind MJ and Pippen, and 2nd in threes (behind LaVine).

He was also 4th in Rookie Of The Year voting behind LeBron, Melo, and DWade.

[Tyler Horka @tbhorka]

The way Marcus Freeman told Kenny Minchey he lost Notre Dame’s starting quarterback competition (and how difficult it was for Freeman, too) is a window into how compassionate of a head coach he is.

“If it ever becomes easy, you might be in the wrong profession.”

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

James Franklin said, "You're going to fall back on your habits."

"If your habits are good and strong, you're going to be very very successful."

Excellence is the habit and the mindset, not the destination.

You are what you consistently do.
