Nick Saban explains the difference between a mistake that deserves getting chewed out and one that deserves encouragement

“I always sort of had a lot of respect for the fact that any player that’s a competitor wants to do well. And I think when you start with that, you have a better perspective because you look at things from their perspective, not your perspective. And I think that’s very helpful.”

“Sometimes when guys are not doing intangible things, whether it’s giving effort or focusing or making mental errors or things that they can actually control, that is something that you can’t tolerate. And you really want to maybe sometimes get after a guy a little bit for it.”

“But when guys are doing those things and just not having success, I think that’s when you want to pat them on the back and get them to believe in themselves and have an understanding if they continue to do things the right way, they will eventually have success.”

“And every player’s different. Sometimes you got guys that are obsessive-compulsive type personalities that are really hard on themselves, and I don’t think you need to get on those guys because they’re already getting on themselves.”

“Then you have other guys that may not be self-starters, and you got to push them a little bit more to get them to be what they’re capable of being. I think all those things were factors in how you kind of approach a player and try to get him to be the best he can be.”

“I always tried to focus on the individual and not look at it like one size fits all, and try to take the best approach with that particular guy to help him have success.”

Nick Saban shares what transformational leadership really looks like and the trap most leaders fall into.

"If you're in any kind of managerial position, I think you should define your job the same way: Provide the leadership to develop the relationships to help people create and accomplish the opportunities that they have, and help them establish the discipline they need to do it."

Then he broke down what leadership actually is: "Leadership is about helping somebody else, affecting somebody else for their benefit. Not for your benefit - for their benefit."

"If you're doing it for your benefit, it's manipulation. And people can see right through that."

That's the line right there...

Leadership serves others. Manipulation serves yourself.

"You gotta develop a relationship, because they gotta know you care. Hard to affect people if they don't think you care about them."

Then he called out where most leaders spend their time:
"How do you spend all your time? If you're a manager, you spend all your time with the people who don't do the right things. I call them energy vampires."

"We got 5 guys on our team - they don't go to class, they don't do the right thing in practice, they loaf all the time. Those are the guys I meet with every day. They're energy vampires."

So he made a commitment:
"I'm gonna meet with 3 guys who didn't do anything wrong every day to see how they're doing. To make sure they know I care about them, their family, and what's happening in their life."

"I wanna have a relationship with those people, so that when I need to affect them, I have a chance to do it."

"People gotta know you care. If they think you only care about yourself, they're gonna think you're just a manipulator and you're not really going to affect them in a positive way."

"You gotta serve other people."

The core of servant leadership is wanting to see others at their best.

It's not about control, it's about serving others.

Pete Carroll says winning championships was never actually the point

“It isn’t about winning the championship. It’s not about that. As soon as you win it, it’s over with. It’s in your back pocket. You’ve already done that.”

“That’s not the motivator. The motivator is to be the best you can possibly be. That’s ongoing. It never ends. I’m not a big goals guy.”

“Goals, you achieve them. To me, I want ongoing, never-ending aspirations of being great at what you’re doing. There is no one game that is the only game. There is no one accomplishment that’s the only accomplishment.”

“Can you come back again? Is that really who you are? Is that worth fighting for?”

“Can you be true to yourself? Can you really be yourself under all circumstances? No matter what happens, when you get your ass whipped in the freaking Super Bowl, when you had two in a row and you’re two seconds from doing it again, can you come back after that moment and still be who you are?”

“That was what the challenge was to me. As hard as that looked, as hard as it felt, and as hard as it was on all the people around me, I took it like this: ‘Okay, you knew this was going to happen sometime.’ ‘Are you going to be the real deal or not?’”

Michael Jordan says he didn't want anything to do with people who skip steps to become a winner

"You gotta have a passion, you gotta put forth the work, to me thats a process, that is a winner"

This is why Jordan hasn't wanted anything to do with Lebrons cheating ass

Nick Saban vs Brian Kelly on substandard wins

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

Kirby Smart shares the biggest disease that destroys winning programs - and how to stop it.

"The disease that creeps into your program is called entitlement. And I've seen it firsthand."

"If you can stomp it out with leadership, then you can stay hungry."

Entitlement is the enemy of progress - it's the delusion of deserving without earning.

"We have a saying around our place: 'We eat off the floor.'"

Entitlement is easy while earning it is hard.

"And if you're willing to eat off the floor, you can be special."

Success requires hard work and showing up consistently.

Choose to compete.

Stay hungry and humble, and look to earn it every day.
