“I believe in grit, the resiliency, the hard work, the tenacity, the confidence, the competitiveness,” Dan Campbell
A winning mindset builds culture and culture builds a relentless passion for success.
"Hard work does not guarantee you success.
It just simply increases your probability of being successful.
But I can guarantee you this, those who don't work hard don't get nothing they want."
"You can lead the league in the effort because it takes no talent.
It's just a decision you make." @BarstoolGruden
Talent? That’s a gift.
Effort? That’s a choice.
Anybody can look good when it’s easy…
But effort shows up when it’s hard.
That’s where character is built.
"How you do one thing is how you do everything.
Effort requires no talent.
Hustle requires no talent.
You don't have to be the fastest, the strongest, or the smartest to give effort.
If you bring effort, watch what it brings to you."
"You never know the ups and the downs of what happens and how you react to them.
You learn from your lessons.
You learn from your opportunities.
You dust yourself off, and then go and you create more."
It’s never about avoiding adversity; it’s about responding to it.
“10% of life is what happens to you, 90% is what you do about it.
You've got to respond in life.
Things are gonna go against you.
That’s part of it.
So what?
Now what?”
You can't control what happens to you, but you can control how you respond.
"If the focus is on the result...not good.
It has to be in the process.
It has to be on your habits.
If we are not getting better at our fundamentals, if we are not focusing on the process, it's gonna catch us."
You control your effort - not the outcomes.
Great leaders are willing to accept the costs of leadership.
“1. You will have to make decisions that negatively affect people you care about.
2. You will be disliked despite your best attempt to do what’s best for the most.
3. You will be misunderstood and won’t always have the opportunity to defend yourself,” Kirby Smart
“I think it’s my responsibility to inspire people but I think that just comes with how I live my life
and go about my daily business. It’s not anything I’m trying to do, it’s just who I am,” Caitlin Clark
The way you treat people on and off the court makes a difference.
“How quickly can we play this game for each other and not for our individual selves? It sounds simple but it’s not. Especially in a day where everybody is trying to get something. How do we give to each other? That’s been our heart, the more you give, the more you get,” @CoachGrantMac
"We say culture is simply how we act, interact, and respond.
That's it.
You can have stuff up on the wall, but if it's just words on paper it doesn't matter.
Our job is to bring it to life, and the most important component of that is the people in our room."
“These kids are learning differently. We need to adjust instead of saying well they’re not learning this. Maybe we need to learn how to teach it better in ways that our message can get across. One of the most interesting things is how we teach,” Coach Krzyzewski
Wow
Awesome message about role acceptance
Worth the watch
Not every role is about getting buckets
Young players need to be gritty to get on the floor

💥 “7.6% of kids will play college sports, but 100% of them will be adults.”
How are we using our platform to prepare them for adulthood?
