Keep going.

Most people don’t lack discipline in their life.
They are disciplined in making excuses.
They are disciplined in being negative.
They are disciplined in complaining.
They are disciplined in blaming others.
Aim your discipline at what makes you better.

Your parents. Your past. Your boss. Your coach. Your team. Your circumstances. What somebody else did or said.
Eventually, blame runs out.
Growth starts when you take ownership of your attitude, your effort, your decisions, your actions, and your response to reality.

A strong mindset isn’t just being positive or confident.
It’s knowing what drives you.
Being rooted in purpose.
Recognizing when you drift.
Returning to what you can control.
Competing without needing the result to prove your worth.
Win the game within.

We often blame our mistakes on our circumstances, while blaming the mistakes of others on their character.
If you want grace for your worst moments, give grace to others in their worst moments.
Humility always.

MIKE LEACH ON EMBRACING HARD
"Nothing is really fun unless it's hard ...
You're pushing yourself. All of a sudden you're making great plays.
You're doing things that you've never done before...
Never hope that it's easy."

Entitlement destroys influence and culture.
Stop focusing on what you think you deserve, start focusing on how to serve.
Entitled to nothing, grateful for everything. Humility is the way.
