Embrace willingness over wanting for greater success.
To be a great team, make 'extra work' the expectation, not the exception. If you do what everyone does, you will get what everyone has. To get more, you must do more.
KIRBY SMART ON BEING GREAT
"There's one way. The right way. The hard way. There are no shortcuts.
At 7:30 when the alarm goes off ... if you wanna be a really good player, you're gonna get up and go to class.
You've gotta do something that somebody else isn't willing to do."
Greatness isn't for the chosen few, it's for the few who choose it.
If you want to be great, your habits match your goals.
If you want to be great, you want to learn and get better.
If you want to be great, you hold each other accountable.
Jeff Capel on what it takes:
You must learn to accept tough coaching & welcome being held accountable if you want to play at the next level. If you have difficulties with coaches yelling & being demanding, you need to grow up, toughen up or reconsider. It will always be tough, but it’s definitely worth it!
"I don't always tell them what they want to hear. But it's extremely important that I tell them what they need to hear. I don't tell them how great they are. I tell them how hard they have got to work to be great."
