In the MLB the runner would give themselves up if the ball beat them to the plate by three steps.

Instead Tennessee’s Hunter Ensley will end up on mural in downtown Knoxville after this tremendous slide to score a run.

Your self talk is the most important conversation you have..

- "You got this, remember all those reps"
- "You're better than that, next time I got it"
- "One more rep, it'll be worth it"
- "Been here a million times, trust the work"

PROGRAM YOUR MIND TO HELP YOU, NOT HURT YOU

•higher release
•more air under the ball than normal- no line drives but no rainbows
•use entire body
•stay loose

Nick Saban walked up to the interview podium after practice one day.

“Okay, y’all ready for a lecture?” he asked.

What followed was a powerful lesson on entitlement and doing your best.

Saban on the Importance of Nothing:

“Let’s talk about the importance of nothing. You get up every day, you’re entitled to nothing. Nobody owes you nothing.

“You have talent, but if you don’t have discipline, you don’t execute, you don’t focus, what do you get? Nothing.

“If you’re complacent and not paying attention to detail, what does that get you? Nothing.

“So, nothing is acceptable but your best.

“Everything is determined by what you do and trying to be your best. There should be nothing else but that, for everybody.

“That’s what we need to stay focused on. We need to not accept anything but our best in terms of what we’re doing in preparation.”

–

It’s a simple, but profound message.

Some key takeaways:

1. Entitlement is a disease. It stunts growth and erodes culture.

2. Success has a one-day life cycle. Yesterday doesn’t dictate today.

3. Nobody is owed anything. When your feet hit the floor in the morning, it’s on you.

4. Talent matters, but it’s far from all that matters.

5. The actions you take drive success. Talent only amplifies those actions.

6. Even the best can’t afford complacency. There are competitors trying to defeat you every day.

7. If you’re entitled, the biggest competitor is yourself.

8. If you’re owed nothing, that means nobody else is either. Therein is your opportunity.

9. You can have the best strategy, the best business model, the best talent and … none of it matters if you don’t execute.

10. There are no guarantees. Relish the unknown.

One way to measure your mental toughness is how effected you become by things outside of your control.

The less effected you are by things outside your control, the greater your mental toughness.

So much to love about @garrisonrippa game winning field goal last night for Jacksonville State!

He had never attempted a field goal or extra point in college. It was Jacksonville State’s first bowl win ever in their first year as an FBS program. BUT…

What stood out the most to me was his pre-kick routine:

- Breathwork to control his emotions and lock in on the present-moment. Many athletes take their breath for granted, but the best of the best utilize the power of it.

- Feeding his mind powerful thoughts with his self-talk. He kept telling himself over and over “you were built for moments like this.”

If players don’t take control of their self-talk in moments like this a lot of times they’ll start to think about what they DON’T WANT TO HAPPEN such as “don’t miss it!”, rather than what they DO WANT TO HAPPEN such as “I’m nailing this!”

I don’t know what his final thought was right before the kick but I’m sure it was super powerful and positive. As Derek Jeter says, “The last thing you think is the first thing you do.”

Quote from Rippa after the game: “There's a picture of me on ESPN with my head against the wall just like I was just breathing,” Rippa said. “I was just trying to tell myself, you know you prepared for this. All the hours outside of practice, all the hours in practice, been doing a lot. My teammates, they put me in a position to win, and I made it happen. I prepared for this.”

All athletes (and non-athletes!) can learn and gain inspiration from what Garrison did last night. Nice work man! 👊
