1. Gives credit to:
- God
- Fans
- Teammates
- Opposing pitcher
2. He accepts credit for his role, but doesn’t inflate his role (though he could)
3. Points the focus back to the team

Therefore:
1. ENCOURAGE more

A FIGHT to HELP others, not USE others.
A FIGHT to be the right size—not too big, not too small.

Students deserve to be told the TRUTH about their ability, role, & potential.

If you want to be a leader:
Encourage 3 people everyday. In a year, there will be 1095 who will be better because of you.
That’s leadership.
Make sure your encouragement is:

2. Right sized
3. Timely
4. Genuine
5. Tactful (no backhanded encouragement)
6. Specific

INTEGRITY: It’s hard to show up when no one will know if you don’t.
WANT TO: Everyone wants to win when they get praised; few want to work when they’re not.
Success is expensive and it’s currency is sacrifice.

In a “LOOK AT ME!” Culture, I challenge you to SHOW ME!
Don’t tweet your wants.
SHOW ME your WORK.
Don’t add it your story.
SHOW ME you will SACRIFICE.
Don’t be about it *because* they are watching.
SHOW ME you’ll work the same when NO ONE is watching.

What kind of teammate are you?
CONTENT: I SHOW UP when I want
COMPLICIT: I DO what I am told
COMMITTED: I WORK HARD for MY goal
COMPELLED: I SACRIFICE for my TEAM
It’s the BIG question we have to answer, no matter the team we are on.
Be the teammate you want to have.

INTEGRITY leads to CONFIDENCE.
I have nothing to fear. I know who I am.
CONFIDENCE leads to VULNERABILITY.
I have nothing to hide. I will show the real me.
VULNERABILITY leads to TRUST.
I have nothing to lose. I am in this with you.
TRUST is the currency of leadership.

It’s tough to trade...
1. PRIDE for HUMILITY
2. I KNOW for TEACH ME
3. WHY ME for WATCH ME
4. NOT MY FAULT for I’M WRONG
5. EXCUSES for OWNERSHIP
But that’s why TOUGH PEOPLE WIN.
Are you TOUGH ENOUGH?

When you lower the standard you cheat your Athletes.
Don’t lower the standard when:
1. It's INCONVENIENT.
2. It's TOO HARD.
3. It's TOO COSTLY.
The standard is the standard!
Instead:
1. ENCOURAGE more
2. TEACH more
3. INVEST more
Don’t ask less…GIVE MORE!

Success is expensive and it’s currency is sacrifice.
You’ll either sacrifice for your dreams, or you’ll sacrifice your dreams.
Either way, SACRFICE REQUIRED.
Choice is yours.

I believe with all my heart that TOMORROW’S leaders are built in TODAY’S locker rooms.
COACHES raise up leaders that live for something GREATER than “me, myself, and I.”

The measure of your character is what you do when it COSTS you MORE TO DO RIGHT than it would to do wrong.
Remember:
1. What happens in the dark always comes to the light.
2. Right is right even when no one is doing it.
3. Wrong is wrong when everyone is doing it.

Student-athletes tell me the feeling they feel the most is OVERWHELMED and STRESSED.
That PRESSURE and WORRY are constant companions.
But they don’t want it to be easier. They want more ENCOURAGEMENT and EQUIPPING.
They need a TIME OUT at strategic times.
Here’s an idea👇🏽
