Everybody wants to be wealthy until it’s time to do the things wealthy people actually do.
Delay gratification.
Take calculated risks.
Invest instead of consume.
Keep learning.
Live below your means.
Think in decades.
Everyone wants the outcome.
Far fewer want the behavior required to create it.

The best athletes are intrinsically motivated. They don’t just work hard because they have to. They work hard because they want to!

We naturally absorb the feelings of the people around us, that's why regardless of what you want to achieve, it's a big competitive advantage to be surrounded by people who are calm, confident, optimistic about the future.

Marc Andreessen reveals why housing, health care, and education keep getting more expensive while everything else gets cheaper
"There's basically three components to the American dream. A house near great job opportunities, great health care for you and your family, and sending your kids to good schools"
"If you disaggregate the economy over the last 25 years, everything that technology touches basically collapses in price. Television sets, computer games, anything with electronics in it. But if you chart housing, education, and health care, the prices of those things are skyrocketing"
"The government restricts supply, zoning laws and university certifications. And then the government responds to the political pressure caused by the rising prices by subsidizing demand. And of course, if you subsidize demand and a fixed supply, you get skyrocketing prices"

Every time you catch yourself judging someone else, remember it’s a signal from reality that you are no longer walking in the right direction; your mental energy should be spent on figuring out how to become a better person, not on feeling better about yourself by internally putting down others.

Nothing earns my respect more than someone working hard to provide for their family.
I don’t care what you do for a living.
I don’t care how much money you make.
If you’re showing up every day, giving it everything you’ve got, and doing your best to give your family a better life, I’m cheering for you.
Massive respect.

The smarter you are, the less judgmental of others you actually are, because you are busy minding your own business and focusing on your own progress.

Three reasons why you should put the team first and be a good teammate:
1. You’ll experience deeper happiness through team success.
2. Your coaches will speak highly of you, which helps advance your career.
3. It’ll improve your character and help you in areas outside of sports.

Nine times out of ten, it is your mind, not your body, that limits you in games. With mental toughness, you can overcome almost any obstacle and reach peak performance!

Sean McVay says he has one question he believes every coach should regularly ask themselves, would you want to be coached by you
“My advice to coaches is simply be reminded by asking this question to yourself: Would you want to be coached by you? That’s one of those things that you can ask yourself to kind of keep you on track.”
“For coaches, it’s like, ‘Would you want to be coached by you?’ And really, I think for players too: ‘Would you want to be your teammate?’”
“If that’s the perspective, you can say, ‘All right, am I doing things that, if you’re really doing it at a high level as a coach, make this a powerful platform to have?’ Or to be a teammate in a leadership role.”
“I think the best leaders, they impact and influence positive change while also knowing that they’re human too. Give yourself some grace in the midst of the journey.”
“But for coaches, the appropriate perspective is: Would you want to be coached by you?”

The beautiful thing about life is that your goals don’t care about your excuses. They don’t care if it’s inconvenient. They don’t care if you didn’t sleep enough. They don’t care if you had a long day. Your goals only care if you showed up. It’s supposed to be hard. That’s why it has meaning. Every single thing you want in life is on the other side of something that sucks. So fall in love with it. Show up. Just keep showing up. That’s the recipe.

Enjoy your high school athletic career as much as you can, because it goes by fast and you’ll miss it when it’s done.

Being competitive doesn’t mean you have to be a jerk. It’s possible to be both competitive and respectful. As an athlete, strive for greatness while also practicing sportsmanship.
