Tom Brady says his career turned around when a sports psychologist told him to stop complaining about what he wasn’t getting and start stewarding what he had the right way
“Greg said to me, ‘Why don’t you quit bitching about all the things you’re not getting, and how about you do the best with whatever opportunities you get?’, ‘Stop worrying about what the other quarterback’s getting. Stop worrying about what the coach is saying to you.’”
“‘Every time you get in there, you bring the juice. You bring the energy. You bring the enthusiasm. You treat practice like a game.’ Because if you just decide to go out there and you’re blaming everybody else, where does that get you? So I started to change my attitude.”
“I didn’t have a lot of confidence in myself. And when you don’t have a lot of confidence in yourself, you blame other people. When you gain confidence in yourself, you start pointing the finger at yourself.”
“I would encourage every athlete to look in the mirror after every day of practice or a game and say, ‘What can I do better to help the team? What can I do better?’”
“Not, ‘What does the coach need to do better?’ Not, ‘What do my teammates need to do better?’, ‘What do I need to do better?’ If every player does that, you’re going to have an incredible team.”
“You can’t have a false confidence. You don’t only gain your confidence because of your physical ability. You gain your confidence because you’re prepared, because you’re competitive. I couldn’t just show up and be better than everybody.”
“I had to show up prepared. I had to show up with energy. I had to show up with my body feeling right. I had to show up like I was on a mission.”

Younger people might not know this, but before social media, we didn't have to listen to crazy people. At all.

Hey, not to be a wet blanket or anything, but maybe we should all be asking ourselves why all these AI CEOs are speaking out to call for a slowdown only now after their employees went public instead of leading the conversation before now without having their hand forced.
Justin Friske retweeted
When the biggest AI developers all agree they should slow down, they should. Less blog posts and reports. The time for federal action is now.
We Must Pace the Frontier: I’ve written a new essay on why the AI industry should slow down, with a three-part plan for doing so.
Anthropic is unilaterally committing to the first of these steps. We’ll provide third-party evaluators with permanent, employee-level access to our systems, so that they can verify adherence to our safety measures, report on incidents, and assess models’ alignment during training.

Anthropic CEO worries we're 6-12 months away from a swarm of AI agents capable of taking over the ENTIRE internet
Calls for immediate, global 1-2 year slowdown in AI development
Time to trust the people building the technology over the people merely investing in it

Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos fired a disproportionate number of journalists who wouldn’t support Trump & right wing propaganda.
So they founded a NEW newspaper to fight disinformation from the Trump regime.
Welcome & support the *The Washington Sun*
(and stop using Amazon)

Guy sounds the alarm that AI could kill us all the next decade and members of Congress and leaders in general are tweeting about it. Stop fucking tweeting and legislate, you absolute morally bankrupt waste.

Normally a company that said that its product had a 10% plus chance of exterminating humanity would be shut down immediately. Just saying.

A team becomes great when people stop asking, “What’s in it for me?” and start asking, “What does the team need from me?”

Indiana football QB Josh Hoover : Called arriving at IU a "culture shock."
On trying to develop under Cignetti: "It's a continuous process. It's never good enough, and you've got to show up every day and earn it. You have to earn the right to win, that's the part I love."

I’m seeing a TON of coaches making the same complaints @Hudl @HudlSupport. Shouldn’t take until Saturday night to breakdown one film and still get 30% of the film wrong. This has to improve. We are paying TOO MUCH to have to go behind and still do all the same work.

THOMAS JEFFERSON SAID, "IF SERVING IN AN ELECTED OFFICE EVER BECOMES A CAREER, CORRUPTION WILL SURELY FOLLOW." I THINK HE NAILED IT.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Thomas Jefferson did not say "If serving in an elected office ever becomes a career, corruption will surely follow." No record of this quote exists in his writings.

I can't get over how the government robbed everyone blind and then just gave the money to corporations. I don't think the outrage is nearly high enough.
Walmart just received a $2.9 billion tariff refund, massively boosting the company's profits.
Regular people paid the costs of tariffs by and large across America.
But now corporations are getting huge checks from the government, while working people get nothing.
