Recommit today. Then tomorrow. Then the next day.

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

Fight for simple.

You. The opponent. The ball.

It never has to get more complicated than simplicity.

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

There isn’t good and bad. It just is what it is. Adding adjectives to describe a swing, putt, pitch, etc. only adds unneeded emotions, which impacts your thought life, and ultimately, your performance.

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

Saying YES to one thing means you’re saying NO to everything else.

Make sure it’s worth it.

Say NO to 90% of what comes your way so you can say heck yes to that 10% that will really move you forward.

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

Your decisions determine your dilemmas.

For good or bad, where you end up is no one’s fault but your own.

Here’s a tip for best decision making practices:

If it’s not a HECK YES! . . . it’s a NO.

Be all in or all out with no hard feelings.

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

How you do something (attitude) is just as important as what you’re doing.

Be a blessing to yourself and others by seeing whatever you HAVE TO do as something you GET TO do.

Have to = obligation

Get to = privilege

Experiment with GET TO today and experience the benefits

Conflict comes in the me vs me battle

Curiosity comes in the me with me battle

Competition comes in the me vs you battle

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

Today + today + today = a lifetime.

Today is the most important day of your life because it’s the only one you’ve got.

It’ll either move you towards or away from the life you want.

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

Want more confidence?

Remember your opponent is human, too.

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

If you knew the true price of success, how close would you be to paying it this week?

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

Patience is underrated.

Patience with a great attitude is almost unheard of.

Try it on.

Maybe you’ll go from unheard of to most talked about.

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

You don’t need any one else’s approval or belief in you.

Just yours. Yours is enough and all that’s necessary to get the job done consistently.

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

Do you think of yourself as a business? https://t.co/HlmZhupeNn

If not . . . Start.

The MLB draft is going on right now. 30 teams are asking “Why should I invest in you?”

Give a college or progressional organization a good reason to pay you to play the game you love.

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

Your responsibility as an athlete is to #1 see the situation as it truly is so you can #2 make the right next move.

How can you make the right next move if your perspective is clouded?

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

If I gave you a bottle of pills that guaranteed failure . . . How often would you take them?

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

This summer . . . aim to master ONE THING in your sport.

Until you reach the MLB, NBA, PGA, NFL, etc) everything is just practice & refining.

Don’t fear failing this summer. Fear being the same athlete in August that you were in May because you didn’t specify your ONE THING

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

There’s no such thing as positive or negative believing.

There’s only believing.

Make sure what you’re believing is aimed at what you want to accomplish.

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

If you have crazy goals (playing professionally or D1) . . .

You gotta be willing to be a little crazy yourself.

I challenge you today and every today after today to be RELENTLESSLY OPTIMISTIC that right here right now you’re going to get the job done.

[Ray Santiago III @D1MindRay]

Focus on what you need to do now rather than on what you weren’t able to accomplish last time.

The past doesn’t need you now.

The present moment demands all your attention.
