"I know one thing I can do, and I can be better than I am today.

I know that I can control what is in my control - which is my work ethic, my discipline, my focus, and my relentless spirit of trying to make myself that one day better."   @AndreAgassi

PLAYERS: Be the best player FOR your team, not the best player ON your team.

- Make memories
- Sacrifice ME for WE
- Be a Connector on your team
- Accept and Thrive in your role
- Be a part of something bigger than yourself

Great Teammates make Great Teams.

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

The best player on a team should also be the hardest worker on the team.

If you are the best player on your team, you have great influence as a leader. If you work hard and put the team first, your teammates will follow you!

Hack for strength: lift weights.

They are distractions.

Coach the person! The best part of working with kids is forming relationships. Learn about the kids you work with & coach them as people first. Show them you care. Build trust & respect. Then use the game to teach them that the ups & downs of life are a lot more than any sport!

Be a warrior on the field, and a gentleman/lady off of it. Compete your hardest, but once the game is over, you need to accept the outcome, manage your emotions, and respect your opponent.

“Those times when you get up early and you work hard.

Those times when you stay up late and you work hard.

Those times when you don’t feel like working, but you do it anyway; that is actually the dream.

That’s the dream.

It’s not the destination, it’s the journey.” -Kobe

[Sports Psychology @SportPsychTips]

Be proud, but never satisfied. Enjoy your success, but always stay hungry for more!

Four reasons to not be afraid of failure:
1. You can’t succeed without facing and overcoming your fears.
2. You’re stronger than you think you are.
3. Failure is not final. You can learn and improve from it.
4. Even if you fail, your worth as a human doesn’t change.

You cannot control what happens but you can control how you respond.

Unselfishness is the most important factor of team success. When an entire team swallows their pride and puts the team first, great things happen!
