@StuFather Man I almost forgot how self righteous most BYU fans are and the reason why I have a hard time with their fan base. Says a lot more about a bunch of grown adults trying to assassinate a 19 year olds character, then him warming up during a prayer.

PARENTS: One day, our kids will be finished playing sports and they will be adults raising their own kids. The best thing that we can do now is to teach them how to be good, happy people so they can, in turn, one day raise good, happy people.

Celebrating your teammates success is a character trait.

NOT celebrating your teammates success is a character trait.

The Invisible Experience of Leadership

[The Winning Difference @thewinningdiff1]

Are you interested or committed?

Interested does what’s required.
Committed does whatever it takes.

Success doesn’t come to the interested—it’s earned by the committed.

Ted Lasso isn’t just a coach; he’s a masterclass in leadership.

His positivity, authenticity, and humor are a winning formula for any leader.

Here are 7 Leadership Lessons from Ted Lasso.

1: BRING POSITIVE ENERGY - Ted is incredibly positive and optimistic, even in adversity. He encourages his team to focus on their strengths and celebrate their successes, no matter how small.

TL: "I do love a locker room. It smells like potential."

2: SHOW EMPATHY - Ted is empathetic and takes the time to get to know his players personally. With Ted, it is all about relationships.

TL: "Your body is like day-old rice. If it ain't warmed up properly, something real bad could happen."

3: BE AUTHENTIC - Ted is authentic and genuine. He doesn't try to be anyone other than himself. He is honest with his players and colleagues, even when it is difficult.

TL: "You know what the happiest animal on Earth is? It's a goldfish. Do you know why? It's got a 10-second memory."

4: USE HUMOR - Ted has a great sense of humor. He uses it to diffuse tension and bring his team together. He doesn't take himself too seriously and encourages his players to have fun and enjoy the game.

TL: "It's kind of like back in the '80s when 'bad' meant 'good.'"

5: BE COLLABORATIVE - Ted believes in collaboration and teamwork. He encourages his players to work together.

TL: "I promise you there is something worse out there than being sad, and that's being alone and being sad. Ain't no one in this room alone."

TL: "If you care about someone, and you got a little love in your heart, there ain't nothing you can't get through together."

7: BE CURIOUS! - Ted does not know it all. He does not have all the answers. He does have ALL of the questions. But he is curious!

TL: "I feel like we fell out of the lucky tree and hit every branch on the way down, ended up in a pool of cash and Sour Patch Kids."

If you are 👀 for the most bang for your buck and the largest return on your investment, there are no magic pills, ointments or snake oils. If growth is the goal, you must commit to consistency. Every day may not be your best day, but every day is another opportunity for growth

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

Dick Vermeil said, "The number one concept is to make sure people know you care. If you want to win over a person, first you have to win over their heart."

Leadership means doing more.

Great leaders care, connect, and influence.

7 Leadership Principles from Dick Vermeil👇

[Jamy Bechler @jamybechler]

PLAYERS: A bad coach doesn't make you have a bad attitude. A good coach doesn't make you have a good attitude. Only you can choose your attitude. Circumstances may make things harder or easier but not impossible or automatic. Your attitude shouldn't be situational.

Why great leaders think like a farmer:

[The Winning Difference @thewinningdiff1]

Effort isn’t just showing up.
It’s about showing up right.
It’s about doing the small things when no one is watching, making the sacrifice to put the work in when it’s not convenient.
You don’t get results by hoping for them.
You get results by earning them.

[Jamy Bechler @jamybechler]

Being coachable means you're 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.

@ThighDoctor @evelina22368 @thebravobabe_ I think so. It was talked about at I think reunions 2/3 or 3/4 because it was part of why Lisa was mad at Stassi or something when she came back after leaving.

[Jon Beck @CoachJonBeck]

4 diseases we must fight every day:

Negativity
Mediocrity
Comfort
Entitlement

Stay positive, commit to excellence & never be outworked. Surround yourself w/ people who make you happy, laugh, recharge your energy & give you a sense of peace. Then you can take on those who don’t!
