I worked with a D1 player and a D3 player this morning.
On paper...
They looked almost identical.
6'4 200 pounds...
Both had elite bat speed. Both had power. Both were physically gifted.
But there was one difference.
Every time the D3 player mishit a ball...
He complained.
He got frustrated.
He pouted.
Then he'd struggle for the next 3 or 4 swings.
Pop-up.
Ground ball.
Weak contact.
The D1 player?
He'd mishit one.
Make an adjustment
...And move on.
No emotion.
No drama.
Just the next pitch.
It reminded me of something I learned playing professional baseball...
Sometimes the biggest difference between two players isn't their talent.
It's the conversation they're having with themselves in their head after they fail.
Your bat speed matters.
Your swing matters.
But the operating system between your ears matters just as much.
The best hitters I've been around don't waste energy explaining why they failed.
They spend their energy figuring out what to do on the next pitch.
- Jermaine Curtis
P.S. The next time you mishit a ball, don't ask, "What's wrong with me?"
Ask, "What's my adjustment?"
P.P.S. - If you enjoyed this, and thought it was helpful, share it.
(It tells me you want more content like this)

I don't want any confrontation on this post. Just getting my feelings out. If you don't agree just pass this by........ I'm going to vent here...I believe we all have the right to worship as we please, but I also know that our country, the United States of America was founded on Christian principles. I believe we should be proud of our country. A quote is a quote. It should not be amended or watered down. The news should not be afraid to use someone’s quote that refers to God.
On the "Today Show", one of the wives of one of the Navy Seals killed along with the US ambassador in Libya was being interviewed. He asked her what she would say to her children about their dad and how she would want them to remember him. Her answer, and I quote, "His love for Christ", and then continued on with a few other things. Throughout the day and on the MSN homepage, replaying the story, they have edited the "Love of Christ" part out. Why? Because using the word Christ might offend someone! Well now, it's my turn to be offended! I'm offended that they would edit it out. Offended that Christians are asked to tread lightly so as not to offend someone of another religion. This man loved his country and loved God and gave his life for both. This Founding Principle is actually embedded in our Declaration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
I hope every Christian or every person that believes in God who is offended will copy this and paste it to their status.... Let’s get this trending 🙏

Opening Day is so special. Hope and faith and optimism in most ballparks. The anticipation of an unexpected magical run for individuals and teams. Baseball always seems to come around when it’s needed most. We need baseball and we love the game. Happy Opening Day!!! It’s magical.

Basketball has a way of teaching life in silence:
- You miss a shot, but the game moves on.
- You make a mistake, but there’s no time to dwell.
You can either stay stuck—or sprint back on defense. Same goes for life: You don’t control what happens. You *do* control your

Baseball Prospectus projected the Reds to go 74-88. FanGraphs protected 78-84.
The Reds went 83-79 and made the playoffs.
We complain a lot about Tito, and I get it. But he took an incredibly flawed roster to the postseason.

Basketball is honest—brutally honest.
You don’t get what you want.
You get what you work for.
Effort isn’t a skill, but it’s what separates players who dream of being great from those who *become* great. Teach that.
