Coaching is a service industry. How kids experience coaching does more good or more damage than most people can imagine. How coaches make kids feel impacts many areas of their lives: how they learn/grow, their perception of authority & in turn, their futures. Serve your kids well
Life is a movie and it’s important to decide what kind of story you are living and what role you play in the story. For some it’s a drama. Others see their life as a tragedy. But I want to encourage you to see yourself as the hero in an inspirational tale.
4 Things Positive Leaders Do:
1. See possibilities when others don’t.
2. Focus on solutions instead of complaints.
3. Encourage people when they are feeling defeated.
4. Demonstrate commitment when others want to quit.
As a leader one of your most important jobs is to create a great culture. Culture drives expectations, standards and beliefs. These drive behavior. Behavior drives habits and habits create your organization and outcomes.
What if you prayed about it instead of worried about it? Research shows prayer boosts the immune system and enhances happiness. Worry weakens the immune system and is a major source of unhappiness.
Prayer >worry.
When fighting the good fight you will wear out and burn out if you try to do it alone. It will take a toll on you mentally and emotionally. You need a greater power and strength. You need God.
Players: Regardless of your role on the team, it’s YOUR team! You have a responsibility to your team. Your body language & what you say is seen & heard by your teammates & coaches. Your attitude can strengthen your team or it can tear it down. Be a positive force for your team.
I heard that on average one person will influence 80,000 people in the course of their life. Enough to fill a stadium. But remember, even if you influence just one person you are a Leader! Choose to be a Positive Leader and make a positive impact.
In 2020 it feels like we’re living in pot of boiling water. When placed in the pot an 🥚 is hardened. A 🥕 is weakened. Don’t be like either. Instead be like the coffee bean. It transforms the water into ☕️. You have the power inside you to transform your environment.
A culture of greatness doesn’t happen by accident. It happens when a leader expects greatness and each person in the organization builds it, lives it, values it, reinforces it and fights for it.
People often say that adversity makes you stronger but that’s not always true. Many face adversity and become fearful and fragile as a result. The truth is adversity makes you stronger if you learn from it, stay positive and resilient and use it as fuel for your growth.
