#65
I've been fired.
I've been blacklisted.
I've started over from nothing — more than once.
At 68, I'm still building. Still coaching humans and coaches. Still relentless.
Not because I'm special.
Because at some point I made a decision that most people don't make:
I decided that the setback was part of the story — not the end of it.
Every organization I've worked with has people sitting inside it right now who've been knocked
down and haven't fully gotten back up.
Not because they can't — because nobody has told them that the comeback is both possible and required.
That's the talk I give. Not motivation — framework. Not a feeling — a decision.
The decision to treat every fourth and long as a reason to go for it, not a reason to punt.
If your organization could use that talk — I'd welcome the conversation.
Never Forget:
1) Coaching is Teaching…Without being a great teacher there isn’t great coaching
2) Details matter…those who get bored with details never become a Top 1% coach
3) Who is the most excited to play may be the most important factor if talent equal
4) Every “Guru” will be humbled “See Bill Belichick”
5) Numbers Lie…Look deep into numbers to see where the real truth lies
6) Be Brutally Honest with a degree of empathy and remember “we are what we repeatedly do, not what we say we do”… Don’t preach toughness if you don’t live it …Don’t say “I love all my players” if u create and support lies to dismiss them or bench them or never have a conversation with them again when they transfer or u kick them off…Love travels
7) Did u laugh uncontrollably yesterday? Why not? Take time to laugh… TikTok/Youtube/ Comedy Central… or simply look in the mirror and laugh hard at yourself
Mediocrity:
We are not tired.
We are comfortable.
Those are not the same thing.
And until we know the difference, we won't build what we are capable of.
Officially brought season one to a close. This group came into their SR season 2-28… they chose to B.E.L.I.E.V.E. = Capped SR season with a winning record, 1st playoff appearance in 5 season and hit many more accomplishments. The path is being paved! #RiseUpGoGetIt
I've been fired.
I've been broke.
I've started over more than once.
Every time, the only question that mattered was: do I still believe in the work?
The answer was always yes.
That's all it took.
