If your coach is showing you “tough love” it’s a gift & you’re lucky. Too many kids are coddled & never told the truth so they never come close to their full potential. But the true competitors want coaches that tell them what they NEED to hear when they don’t wanna hear it.
Being coachable means you are willing to consider feedback even if you don't like what you hear. It means resisting the urge to make excuses or get defensive when challenged. Getting better is more important than your ego. You'd rather get it right than be right!
Without great communication, negativity fills the void. If you want to improve your team and relationships, it all starts with communication! Communicate. Communicate. Communicate.
Why Hire Athletes?
✔️ They're used to working under pressure
✔️ They’ve endured success & defeat
✔️ They handle adversity
✔️ They sacrifice personal for team success
✔️ They understand that doing work outside of working hours leads to a competitive advantage
