Text From A Parent About Playing Time 🤣🤣🤣 from @TheCoachTube

DISCIPLINE IS A WAY OF LIFE This entire clip from Nick Saban is pure gold. Discipline is everything. Every player should watch this clip understanding how they do drills in practice, how they warm up, or do anything is a mentality. It can't be turned on or off.

COST ASSOCIATED WITH LEADERSHIP "Have to make hard decisions that'll negatively affect people you care about... Be disliked despite your best attempt to do the best for the most... Be misunderstood and not always have the opportunity to defend yourself." ~ Kirby Smart

YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE IN YOURSELF “I was a backup quarterback on a 0-8 freshman high school team, and I didn’t play. We didn’t even win a game and I couldn’t even play.” (Tom Brady)

"We're such an instant gratification era ... We're trying to skip the step of adversity and growth ... but we're gonna have to face it. Sometimes the grass isn't greener on the other side. Sometimes you're just trading one set of problems for another." ~ Eli Drinkwitz 🏈

MIKE LEACH ON EMBRACING HARD "Nothing is really fun unless it's hard ... You're pushing yourself. All of a sudden you're making great plays. You're doing things that you've never done before... Never hope that it's easy." ~ via Washington State Football and @DrewMaddox

University of Louisiana baseball coach Matt Deggs on advice he'd give young coaches. This is a good listen no matter what sport you coach. ~ via Coach Matt Deggs

"If you don’t struggle in practice, you will never get better . . . The only way to get better is to push yourself past exhaustion.” (Kobe Bryant)

HOW YOU PRACTICE IS WHO YOU ARE "How you practice is who you are. Nobody wants a complainer. I want somebody smart, tough, fast, disciplined with character." COACH PRIME

RESPONDING TO MISTAKES "I'm letting the team down because I turned the ball over ... missed a shot ... blew a defensive assignment. No, you're letting the team down when it parlays into 4 or 5 possessions after that. Pick yourself up ... You're playing a game that's imperfect."

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)

DEVELOPING MENTAL TOUGHNESS "You get mental toughness because things are hard. You've got to embrace hard. Tough times make hard people. Easy times make soft people... You've gotta learn to overcome things that are hard." (Nick Saban)

SET A GOOD EXAMPLE “The people who are leaders on your team have to be committed to doing things the right way." (Nick Saban)

FAILURE IS PART OF THE PROCESS "Is anyone going to learn how to fail? It's okay to fail... You don't learn as much from winning as you do from losing." (Tom Izzo) ~ via The Winning Difference

“Toughness is the mental and physical strength to do what you need to do - no matter the consequence.” (Matt Rhule) ~ video from @TheCoachTube

DO YOU HAVE CHAMPIONSHIP HABITS? “The only reason you did it was because I offered you $100. When I said the first time to go from here to there and back you went at your pace, now you went at the pace I want you to go at.”
