You have a choice. You can complain about things you can't control or you can control what you can control and let go of what you can't. You can focus on your problems or focus on getting better. You can look for an excuse or you can look within and find your best.
This is what youth coaches should be telling their players:
1. You are loved!
2. Having fun and loving the game is what matters most.
3. It’s okay to fail. Everyone does.
4. Fear is normal. Don’t worry about the outcome. Go for it!
5. Smile. It’s a game.
6. I believe in you!
