When they say you are working too hard, work harder.

Coach may always be right, but that doesn’t make him correct…

The ultra successful are not smarter than others, they are just more willing to take action, embody risk, and push energy into the universe even when they don’t feel like it.

Sometimes growth looks like no longer letting other people's actions, behaviors, inconsideration, or negativity stop you.

Fear is a sign you are heading in the right direction.

Master the basics first.

The #1 reason kids fail to reach the next level athletically is thinking they don’t have enough time to work on getting better. I don’t care how busy you think you are… You have time. The real reason is that they don’t have the discipline or willpower to do whatever it takes!

Routines create consistency and consistency help create better results more often. Figuring out what works for you is the goal. Try this to help block out the noise and calmly sit on your pitch.

Sometimes it’s the little cues or simple tweaks that help the most. This is one of the superstitious things I would do…but it works!! Consistent actions produce consistent results.. #baseball #softball #hitting #battingpractice #hittingdrills

You don’t need more time…you need more commitment. When you want something bad enough, you will do whatever it takes.

Slow is smooth and smooth is fast! It’s not all always all about power… A lot of times, when you take smooth controlled swings, you can connect with the ball and hit it further than if you swung out of your shoes…

This is a great example of being short and compact at the plate. The swing stays tight, the lower body produces the force, and he stays connected through the ball.

Only this with high baseball/softball IQ will do this.

See the pitch, and hit it hard! Sometimes this is the only approach you need. It’s easy to overthink and ruin your plate appearance. I’ve chased sliders so far in the dirt they ended up at the backstop. This is permission to simplify your next at-bat. See ball, hit ball.

Swing at strikes and put hard hit balls in play. This is the easiest way to help get more hits. When you can see the ball better, pick it up earlier, and are able to recognize and differentiate fastball, curveball, etc. the better your timing will be too #timing #pitcher

Knowledge is power.

Holly quick hands!!

If you don’t know what they mean, it doesn’t matter. Discipline: the practice of training to obey a code of behavior using punishment to correct disobedience. Fortitude: courage in pain or adversity. Persistence: continuance in a course of action in spite of opposition.

What do you notice about his swing? Pay close attention!
