Great story from Coach K on running into a former camper and the lesson this man carried with him. Coach K asked all the kids at the camp... "Who do you talk to the most?" “Yourself… so when you talk to yourself, why not be yourself's best friend?” A lot of performers are entertaining an internal voice that’s critical, impatient, and unforgiving. We say things to ourselves we’d never say to a teammate and then we expect confidence, consistency, and composure to follow. You're in a lifelong conversation with yourself. Make it one worth having. 📹: Sons and Daughters Podcast

“Now we’re just supposed to hug and kiss everybody. You know what? Do your job right. Go to class and you won’t hear about not going to class. Kids have so many distractions they don’t stay focused on the task at hand. Accountability is going to be big until I leave,” Tom Izzo

Incredible take from Charles Barkley on Tom Izzo: "The media, who don't know anything about sports, say 'Why is he yelling his players?' That's called coaching... if parents & friends get mad because you're getting yelled at, get better parents & better friends."

#Colts CB Sauce Gardner said he was two minutes late (7:02 am) to the training room on his first day with Indy… HC Shane Steichen called him out in front of the entire team for being late. “That was his way of showing me how things are — I had to get with the program.” (via @PFT_Live)

Rick Pitino said, "You're not allowed to give excuses because excuses are a sign of weakness. We give no excuses when we fail." "Failure is just fertilizer to help us grow as a team." Excuses are just noise. You either make progress or make excuses. But you can't do both.

Bill Cowher with some of the best advice you are going to hear this week. (📌Bookmark this)

Roger Federer broke the internet with one statistic that will change how you see every setback in your life. 1,526 singles matches. Won almost 80% of them. 20 Grand Slams. 103 titles. Now answer honestly: What percentage of total points do you think he won across his entire career? 70%? 65%? 60%? Try … 54%. He lost literally almost EVERY SECOND POINT he ever played for 24 years. And still became one of the greatest of all time. Watch him explain it himself (2:07 of pure life-changing wisdom): “In tennis, perfection is impossible… When you lose every second point on average, you teach yourself to say: ‘Okay, I double-faulted — it’s only one point.’ ‘Okay I got passed at the net — it’s only one point.’ Even a screaming overhead smash that ends up on SportsCenter Top 10… still just one point. So when you’re playing your point, it has to be the most important thing in the world. The moment it’s over — it’s behind you. That mindset frees you to attack the next point, and the next, and the next with absolute intensity and clarity.” Then he looked at the crowd and said the line that hit a billion people in the soul: “The real sign of a champion is not that they win every point. It’s that they lose again and again and again… and have learned how to deal with it. Negative energy is wasted energy. Cry it out if you have to. Then force a smile. Move on. Be relentless. Adapt. Grow. Work harder — and work smarter.” Save this post. The next time you lose a deal, bomb a presentation, get ghosted, miss a deadline, or just have “one of those days” — come back here and read it again. You’re not falling behind. You’re just in the 46%. And the 46% is exactly where every single legend has spent most of their career. Keep playing the next point. (full 2:07 clip — sound on)

Matt Drinkall has done one of the best coaching jobs in the country this season.

A wise coach once said, "If you have to beg them to play, you will have to beg them to stay." You don't beg a Wolfe to hunt... The Standard is the standard.
