Urban Meyer believes people should stop claiming they want to reach their dreams when their daily habits say otherwise “I always like to say, you’re here, and you want to get there. The fastest way is draw that straight line and stay away from anything that pulls you off of that straight line.” “There’s a great quote actually right over there that says, ‘Do your habits reflect your dreams and goals? And if not, then change.’” “When I had my son, I changed that quote. My son has it up in his bedroom right next to his bed: ‘If your habits don’t reflect your dreams and goals, change your habits, or change your dreams and goals.’ Don’t lie to yourself.” “I hear people say, ‘I want to go play in the NFL,’ but you’re acting like this. Don’t lie. You lie to me, it’s fine. But don’t lie to yourself.” “Then you’ve got to look in the mirror and say, ‘Do I really want to be a first-round draft pick and I’m doing this?’ That’s when usually it hits home.”

Michael Jordan says losing is not the opposite of winning, it is just another part of winning “I hate losing. It’s not even a question. But I have to respect losing…” “Because losing is a part of winning. You never just win. You’ve got to lose to win.” “Losing is going to hurt… To a point where you look at… How can I do things different? How can I change? How can I make this team better?” “Before you can look at someone else… You’ve got to look at yourself in the mirror. That’s how things get started. You’ve got to be willing to change.”

Almost all teams have written core values & standards. Teams enter the season with high expectations, but only a few reach the level of greatness & most get stuck in mediocrity. What’s the key? Great teams have a process that turns words into championship, observable behaviors.

My son Christian retired from baseball when he was 4. He's now about to wrap up culinary school. When I talk baking with him, his eyes light up the way mine did talking about hitting with my dad. That's what you want for your kids. Not your path. Their path.

Mike Brown shares a simple but powerful definition of winning in life. "Even if you don't have the quote unquote ultimate success that you think you deserve - if you get knocked down in life and you're able to get back up and keep fighting - that's a fricking win." "Most of our guys have probably had to go through that. But I think most people in the world have to go through it." Success isn't always the result - sometimes it's just refusing to stay down. It's choosing to endure, get back up, and keep fighting. Successful people are relentless. (🎥SNY )

Bill Belichick said, "I don’t know how you can improve unless you can accept constructive criticism." "I can’t put you in the game if you don’t know consistently what to do." It means humility and consistency.

Standards over your feelings!!
"Every year, our goal is to repeat a process, not chase an outcome. This is how every NBA champion is able to achieve success." Average teams chase outcomes. Elite teams repeat standards.

John Thompson believed the game of basketball was not the end goal, but rather a vehicle to opportunity. Through demanding discipline & strong mentorship he prepared his players not just for basketball success but also for life beyond the game.
