 Bring Energy.Bring Energy. Energy shows up differently. It depends on who you are, what’s important to you and how confident you are about the work you’ve put in. Some players exude a steady energy that is awe inspiring to watch. They don’t get tired and their movements are so perfected that stopping them is nearly impossible to do. There aren’t many players who are willing to do what it takes to dominate. I’m not really talking about them. Most players are committed to the team enough to put in some work outside of practice. That’s who I’m talking about here. Energy is different. Players don’t all challenge themselves in the same way. As coaches, it’s our job to find out what’s motivating and treat individual players not as who they are but who they could be, all the time. Coaches help players grow in their sport and in their life and teammates accept each individual energy and appreciate the opportunity to bring everyone together. Seek, connect with, and grow the energy of your teammates and players, whatever that looks like. Energy shows up differently for every player. That’s what makes each blend of connected energy so beautiful, unique and powerful. Bring Energy.

You are limited in what you are capable of physically. There is no limit to what your mind can do. Establish a standard that accepts mistakes as opportunities to better prepare and impact winning. Winning is not judgmental and does not compare. It doesn't matter what focused, disciplined and productive practice looks like. Winning doesn't care. The only thing important to winning is the work and the quality of the work. impact winning  Compete Freely Define what success looks like to you.
Create a process strategically. Sit down and take a look at what it will take to reach your definition of success. Commit to the process fully. Whatever you decide to do, don't let anything get in the way. If you're committed you'll find a way. If you're not, you'll find an excuse. Work with discipline consistently.
