My Grandpa, Roman Gabriel, set a standard that inspires me every day. I’ve got a lot to prove, a lot to learn, and a lot of work ahead. Hopefully one day I can follow in his footsteps. #Legacy #WorkInProgress

I've been fired. I've been broke. I've started over more than once. Every time, the only question that mattered was: do I still believe in the work? The answer was always yes. That's all it took. Get Up!

A player called me 15 years after he graduated. I wasn't ready for what he said. 1/5 He wasn't one of my stars. He was the kid I was hardest on. The one I benched on several occasions. The one who never quite got there on the field, but always seemed to find a way to keep fighting and to win. 2/5 He called to tell me he'd survived numerous battlefield wounds serving our country in the war with Iraq. He said: "You were the one person in my life who told me I was capable of more and that I could never quit because I hadn’t scratched the surface of what I was capable of
and that I couldn’t lose if I never quit. Your belief in me helped me to survive when it was hopeless in war.” 3/5 I had to sit down. Because in those moments (15 years earlier) as a coach, I wasn't sure I was doing the right thing. I was just holding the standard. 4/5 Fifteen years later he was calling to tell me the standard saved his life. 5/5 Love people enough to hold the standard. Even when they hate you for it. Especially then. That call is why I keep doing this work
Our job isn’t to be liked. Our mission is to create resilient humans who make a difference. Uphold the standard.

He never got bored with details I bet.
We set an NCAA record: Colby Cameron threw 444 consecutive passes without an interception in 2012 at LaTech making us the #1 offense in college football with 51.5 ppg. Nobody ever asks about the real reasons. I'll tell you. 1/5 The obvious answer is system. We had a system that minimized risk. That's true. But a system doesn't run itself. Quarterbacks do. Colby played without fear of making mistakes because of his training and experience of failures and successes. 2/5 The real reason: we trained for what we called "the throw you don't make." The most dangerous pass in football is the one that feels open but isn't. We practiced saying no. Our motto was “Take what’s easy and trust your team-mate to make a play.” 3/5 In business, in relationships, in life — the decision that ruins you is never the obvious bad one. It's the one that looked fancy and eloquent in the moment because you didn’t trust your training to “take the best win”. 4/5 444 passes. The record isn't about what we threw. It's about what we didn't throw. Discipline is knowing which opportunities to leave on the field. The best decision you can make today might be the one you don't make. 5/5 The record proves it
Do what’s easy and train the difficult to become easy. The moment the difficult becomes easy you are separating yourself from average to greatness.

I coached the #1 overall NFL Draft pick. Here's the one thing nobody in football talks about — and why it matters for every man trying to build something. đŸ§”
