In talking to coaches this week I had three including two in the top 20 tell me that their teams “just needed to start HAVING FUN again.” Never let the pressure of performance and the stress of outside influences TAKE AWAY your EXCITEMENT to COMPETE !!
Players: The person you are is far more important than the player you are. Your athletic talent is very temporary, but your character lasts a lifetime. What are your habits? Do you work hard? Are U selfish? Are you humble? Are you grateful? Are you honest? Do you care for others?
FOOD FOR THOUGHT:Your WORK ETHIC & ATTITUDE are two things U can control & they will get U more opportunities in your lifetime than your TALENT alone.
"Every team has a CORE GROUP who sets the tone for everyone else. If it is negative, you're beaten before you walk on the field." Chuck Noll #CultureWins
A baller without qualifying grades is like a brand new Benz without an engine. It looks good on the outside but thats it. People are going to look at it and admire it, but at the end of the day it will still be at the same spot.
