It was difficult. You were uncomfortable. You felt ridiculous. But you kept showing up.

Then you got better.

And it was less difficult. You weren’t as uncomfortable. You were confident.

Rinse and repeat. This is progress. This is growth.

Farmers don't dig up their seeds to see if they are growing. They keep doing the work, cultivating, trusting the process, preparing for the harvest.

Growth takes time. Results take time. Be patient, be persistent, do the work, focus on your habits, be ready for the harvest.

"If I'm hiring a coach, I'm hiring a culture builder. Every coach will know the game but can they connect, communicate a clear vision, hire/recruit/develop people well, multiply their leadership? Coaching is about X's and O's. Leadership is about culture."

[Dr. Julie Gurner @drgurner]

If you hold high personal standards, everything in your life will take more effort...

Your work, your relationships, and what you expect for yourself.

But it will be worth it.

Steph Curry went 0-10 from 3 on November 4th, 2016.

In his very next game on November 7th, he set the NBA record for most 3-pointers in a game by hitting 13 of them.

Life is 1% what happens to you and 99% how you respond to it.

With success comes complacency. Remember what it took to get you where you are today and keep that same energy! #lifetimegrinder

As a senior in hs, Jordan Poole came off the bench.

He didn’t start a game his 1st year at Michigan.

He spent last year in the G-League.

He’s now averaging 30ppg in the NBA Playoffs.

Just because it’s not your turn right now doesn’t mean your time isn’t coming. Keep working.

“Don’t look at what I did, but how I did it.”
— Kobe Bryant

Everyone runs the same plays.
Everyone does the same drills.
Everyone does the same workouts.

It’s not about what you do, it’s about how you do it.

BAD teams avoid accountability.

GOOD teams are held accountable by the coaches.

GREAT teams hold each other accountable.
