PLAYERS: Your shot might be off but your effort shouldn't be. Find a way to be valuable to your team.

Leadership is about making people and situations better. Leadership isn't about your status, talent, position, title, authority, role, or age.

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.

WINNERS KNOW WHY THEY WIN 💯 “Cool does not win. We have to be willing to do the uncomfortable things that go into winning.” (Mick Cronin)

PLAYERS: Your coach shouldn't have to beg you to be unselfish, provide energy, have a good attitude, or give your best effort. Those are all things you can control. That is what a winning teammate brings to a team. Great teams have great teammates.

Winning cultures don’t have athletes pointing fingers, blaming others, or making excuses. Winning cultures don't have coaches doing these things either. Winning cultures have people coming together to find solutions, share results, and take responsibility for the process.

“My best skill was that I was coachable. I was a sponge and aggressive to learn.” ~ Michael Jordan

COACHES: It might not be "your fault" but it's 100% "your responsibility" to do all you can to make things better, find solutions, and maximize the potential of all your team members.

PLAYERS: Your greatest ability is your coachability.

EASY DOESN'T CREATE GREATNESS 🏆 "I didn't have an easy experience. I didn't have 'come in as a top-rated recruit' I didn't come in with the opportunity to play right away. 𝙄 𝙝𝙖𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙣 𝙞𝙩!" ~ Tom Brady

Culture isn't about the posters hanging on the wall in the locker room. Culture is what the players are doing when they're hanging out in that locker room. A team's true culture is what the players do and say when the coach is not around. Culture is what you reinforce, reward,

COACHES: Just because a player has a bad attitude doesn't mean you don't coach them up and find ways to inspire them. As long as they're on your team, it's your responsibility to help them grow, develop, and improve. Be encouraged. Keep persevering. Stay positive. Don't give up.

PLAYERS: Having a good attitude when you're playing well, winning, getting the minutes you want, or when the refs aren't "picking on you" is easy. But you show what you're really made of when things aren't going well. Have a good attitude regardless of your circumstances.
