Ninety percent of success can be boiled down to consistently doing the obvious thing for an uncommonly long period of time without convincing yourself that you're smarter than you are.

“I think the intangible of teams getting this far is the camaraderie, the tightness of it. It’s what draws me into this game. Just love being in the game to watch a team be a team. Not just on the ice, more importantly off the ice before they get there,” John Tortorella

Diet is not just what you eat but what you consume
James Clear: "Almost every thought that you have is downstream from what you consume." "When you choose who to follow on social media or which podcast to listen to or which book to read or what YouTube channel to watch, you are choosing your future thoughts in a sense." "If you want better, more productive, more creative thoughts, then you need better, more productive, more creative inputs." @JamesClear on @hubermanlab

Moral courage is a far rarer commodity that physical courage… I have known many officers who were physically brave, but who did not have the intestinal fortitude to organize the chaos around them. — Dick Winters 75-1:19:07

“You’ve got to be talented to play, yes… But at the end of the day, man, it’s coming down to the mental part of the game.” – Brock Purdy Talent opens the door. Mindset keeps you in the room. Resilience, adversity, leadership = the real separator.

Ken Griffin on the single factor he looks for when hiring at Citadel: "show me an athlete who did well academically." "an athlete because they know what it takes to win and they've had to experience loss." talent is everywhere. what's rare is someone who knows how to lose, recover, and still perform at a high level. same thing separates profitable traders from everyone else.

This.
Quarterback development doesn’t start with football. It starts with structure. Studying something like Atomic Habits gives you a framework for how behavior actually changes. Clear cues. Reduced friction. Consistent reinforcement. That is the same sequencing required for progression discipline on Saturdays. If your daily process is undefined, your response under pressure will be inconsistent. If your structure is tight, your decisions become repeatable. Build habits that support processing speed, mechanical timing, and decision hierarchy. The carryover is real.

White Belt Mentality… 1st H/T @Coach_Flinn #sowhat
My son came home from karate with a white belt. I asked what it meant. He said: "You know nothing. You have an opportunity to learn everything." That stopped me cold. I was an MLB manager at the time. Most leaders confuse experience with wisdom. They've "seen it all" so they stop listening, stop asking, stop being curious. But the leaders who last longest never stop being students. They have the White Belt Mentality. Here are 3 principles of the White Belt Mentality. Principle 1: Approach every room like you have something to learn. The moment you walk in thinking you already have the answers, you've lost. • Ask more questions than you give answers • Seek out people who challenge your thinking • Be the first to say "I don't know but let's figure it out together" The leaders who stay curious outlast the ones who think they've arrived. Principle 2: Your team will teach you. When I was managing the Pirates, my best ideas didn't come from strategy sessions. They came from conversations with players, coaches, and support staff who were closest to the problem. I had to listen, not just wait to talk. Actually listen. People tell you exactly what they need, if you're willing to hear it. Principle 3: Build habits that force you to keep growing. Staying a white belt isn't an attitude, it's a daily practice. • Carry a journal and write down what you learn, not just what you do • Spend a few months learning from one voice, book, or mentor, and then follow the seeds to the next • Seek out people who tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear The best leaders in any room aren't the ones with the most experience. They're the ones still acting like they have the most to learn.

Great story from Mike Krzyzewski. “Who do you talk to the most? Yourself, so when you talk to yourself, why not be yourself's best friend?” Your inner voice drives everything. Make it one that builds you. 🎥: Sons & Daughters Podcast x.com/MVP_Mindset/status/203…
