I highly recommend listening to both seasons of this podcast.

Sport psychology mentioned again by a champion performer. More evidence that mental training is not for those with mental problems, it's for those who want to be great.

Watching opening football weekend and feeling for the student-athletes whose seasons were cancelled. It was a tough call and who knows if it was the right decision but I’d be hurting if it was me. #GameDay

Really liking the idea that athletics be offered as a field of study instead of just an extracurricular. Same as music, theatre, acting, dance, and other performance disciplines. https://t.co/kzDvsTQc3R

A timeless message for our divided times:

“Be slower to judge and quicker to forgive. You can’t be hating and learning at the same time.” -@JonHaidt

It's common sense, but sadly not common practice.

Beginner = ignorant simplicity

Intermediate = functional complexity

Advanced = profound simplicity

[Ben Oliva @benmarkoliva]

Humans perceive the world according to their existing beliefs.

When you disagree, imagine the situation from the other perspective.

We must hold ourselves and others accountable, and we must do it with compassion.

If we don’t, it will prevent efficient and effective change.

[Ryan Holiday @RyanHoliday]

What's this thing people are doing where when someone points out a really bad thing, they respond by bringing up a different bad thing as if they cancel each other out and now you don't have to discuss? Do any of y'all have spouses? Mine doesn't let me get away with that shit.
