What is our calling as children of God and Image bearers? Is it to be successful? Influential? Winsome and persuasive? Or is it something much more significantly simple?

Many people want to be "right" more than they want to "win". As a leader, you have to surround yourself with people who want to win, regardless of who is "right".

Back to School.
High School Athletes.
Your job on campus is to bring students together.
Be a role model.
Don't be a bully.
Be the dude that stops the bullies, and helps people look forward to coming to school instead of dreading it. Go the extra mile to help others.
Be a winner.
Represent yourself, your family, your coaches and friends with winning makeup.

In no order off top of my head.

1. Be who you would want your own kid to play for.

2. Don’t be a coach that succumbs to society. Teach the kids what you know is right and wrong and all the lessons that parallel life.

3. Teach them that the FB locker room is the greatest place on Earth bc it’s the one place where it doesn’t matter what race you are, if you like Trump or Biden, what religion you are, or anything of the sort. It just matters how much you give to the team. That other stuff is not allowed.

4. I have heard coaches say that some focus too much on winning. That’s an excuse for losing. Life is winning and losing whether it’s getting into a college, competing for a wife, competing for a job, etc.
AND FOOTBALL IS HARD. So the reward for the hard work is winning in a Friday night. That moment makes the weeks hard times all worth it immediately. Sure you have to have other things to keep going but winning is important (and my team went 3-8 last year). I have won some years and lost some. Losing sucks and it’s not fair to the kids and coaches to not place emphasis on it and work your butt off and make it important, really important.

5. Don’t beat around the bush with what you want from your players and coaches. Too many leaders now call someone in to talk to them and sugar coat it so much that the person really isn’t sure that the coach was asking for a change in behavior or decision making.

6. Confidence cannot be given to an individual. It has to be earned. Don’t even try otherwise. Point out reasons that a player or coach should have confidence but never make something up or even rely on something that would not deserve confidence.

7. Always make sure that however hard you are one your players, you go to the opposite ends of that spectrum as well. That’s the way life is too.

8. Always have a plan A, B, and C with things, game plans, practice plans, culture changes. It’s rare things go as planned and HOPE is not a good plan.

9. No freaking excuses. Take accountability yourself when things go bad. It is my fault when we lose a game or have a bad practice. Bc it’s my responsibility to have the coaches have a plan we can implement and be successful with and when we don’t, it’s on me. If all the coaches believe that too, it’s amazing to watch the players start saying, “no coach, you showed us, practiced it, and we understood. It’s on us.” THEN you have something.

10. Do this one and teach your kids this too. Too many times we worry about what other people think. You ONLY need to worry about that if you are doing something wrong. If you are doing something right, it doesn’t matter what anyone thinks. And certainly don’t worry on the little things, bc we live in a society where people only pay attention to you for a few mins and then it’s back to their own lives.

When I was on the @Flagrant2Army comedian @AkaashSingh brought up a really good point about God’s forgiveness and justice. Here’s how I fielded that question.
