So You Wanna Improve?
Improvement takes a commitment. You cannot improve if you are not committed to improving. The requirements are simple. Repetition, a dedication to the fundamentals and working when you do not feel like working. The commitment must be greater than your feelings.

Do what you love. Love what you do.
Просмотров 1028 дней назад
No one can be great at anything if they do not love what they do. Passion for something creates a work ethic that will lead to great things. Here is how it goes. The harder I work, the better I do. The better I do, the better I feel. The better I feel, the more I enjoy it. The more I enjoy it, the harder I work. If you love it, you'll work hard. This is the cycle of success.
I guarantee improvement. Plan it. Communicate it. Be Positive. Well-Better-How. Be consistent.

Four simple steps guarantee your team's success when preparing for a game or a season. Here they are. There must be a PLAN. Within that plan, COMMUNICATE clearly and concisely, be POSITIVE, and follow up with what we have done well, what we need to improve on, and how we are going to do it. A WELL-BETTER-HOW. Do this CONSISTENTLY, and I promise improvement will materialize. 100 % guarantee.
MTA: Make The Adjustment
Просмотров 19Месяц назад
When things are out of your control (and they happen often), you must react properly and make the adjustment (MTA). We say, "You just have to MTA." The more you do it, the better you will become. It is a mindset that needs to become a habit. It is a habit of champions. And always remember URtheCulture.
Praise and Criticism
Просмотров 152 месяца назад
Not too long ago, I criticized my players with exclamation points. No longer is that the go-to method. I now praise, encourage, and motivate with exclamation points and criticize with periods. The results have been uncanny. Like all of us, we are a work in progress. I am no different. Through most failures, I discovered I could get more out of my team if I was lavish in my praise and tranquil i...
Action. Without it, there is nothing accomplished.
Просмотров 202 месяца назад
Regardless of what we say we will do, we still have to do it. Deciding to do anything is nothing. Action is the key. And it is that consistent action we are looking for. Realizing that vision may take all day, weeks, months, years, or even decades. As author Michael Lewis said, "Put your ass in the chair" if you want to write a book. It is that simple. And remember always, URtheCulture.
Communication is an ABSOLUTE
Просмотров 252 месяца назад
Speak at 400-700 words per minute, with emphasis, and loudly when needed. Repeat it, because 48 hours later, your audience will only remember 50 % and retain 25%. Communication is one of my five pillars when attempting to transform and sustain an organization or athletic program.
Humility wins. Me & I don't.

"I hate to pat myself on the back, but I will." Great Leaders never say this. They always deflect to others. They give credit, accept none, or accept little. They lead others to the goal or compelling vision. Do not be that leader who gives themselves credit whenever they can at the expense of others. Remember URtheCulture!
Pat Williams and his Seven Sides of Leadership
Просмотров 243 месяца назад
A remarkable man passed this week. His name is Pat Williams. His seven sides of leadership stand the test of time. His speech in 2007 in Orlando, Florida, at the ABCA (Baseball Coaches Convention) inspired me to do many of the things I do today. I attribute the improvement of my leadership skills. It took nearly a decade to realize how bad I was. I always wanted to pursue my Ph.D. He gave me th...

They say it's not about you, but it is about you. As the leader or head coach, you set the tone through your actions-work ethic, persistence, competitiveness, and abilities that may go unnoticed. Never wavering in the face of adversity. It's about you. You are the culture.
Fill their buckets!

As leaders and coaches, it's important to encourage, applaud, and praise our team members and players. This positive reinforcement helps boost their morale. As Jon Gordon advises, "Shout praise, whisper criticism." Positivity is a great motivator. Make sure to show your appreciation through compliments, congratulations, and positive remarks in texts, letters, and emails. Do it both privately an...
Dean Smith Principles. Emotional Intelligence 101.
Просмотров 234 месяца назад
I had the opportunity to speak with King Rice, Dean Smith's former point guard, to get his insights into what made Coach Smith the great coach he was. According to Rice, most of what had him great had little to do with strategy, although Smith had forgotten more basketball than most coaches knew about basketball. It was how he treated others. Rice said Smith always made time for his players, on...
Create a Safe Environment
Просмотров 135 месяцев назад
Leadership is about creating an environment where everyone feels safe to speak without fear of criticism. It's crucial to ensure that no one feels like a victim, and there are no jokes at the expense of team members. Such an environment fosters creativity and encourages everyone to contribute freely. I've witnessed the consequences of the opposite scenario, where everyone remains silent, and th...
