My greatest day as a coach came from one of the most frustrating situations I encountered in my career.

Who do you want to become as a leader - and how will that vision guide where you want to go and what you want to accomplish?
Don’t be afraid to fail at what you’re trying to accomplish.
Be afraid of losing who you’re trying to become in the process.
The power for your leadership comes from your inner freedom…but with great power comes great responsibility.
Leadership is not about position, title, age, social rank, or wealth.
Leadership is about your action in the moment.
Every day life will ask us questions.
Our answers to these questions are how we write our own story.
And how we write our own story is how we lead for impact.
Don’t spend your life trying to earn the right to feel that your life matters.
Live as though it matters - and let that understanding shape how you pursue your goals, experience your relationships, and respond to the road ahead.
Your life is a story.
Every story has a hero.
Every hero goes on a journey.
Every journey gives the hero an opportunity to make an impact on the world.
Your desire to learn, grow, and change as a coach must be greater than your desire to improve your players.
I believe student-athletes need to understand that their identity and value are not tied to their performance.

If you want to gain confidence as a coach, here is the first step you need to take...

You will never be the coach you were created to be if you are trying to be the hero who proves your worth and value through the scoreboard.
You must be the guide who shows each of your players how to be the hero of their own story.
As coaches, we have 3 main resources: time, energy, and words.
How we allocate and use those resources will determine our level of success.
Until you empty your mind, you will not be ready to receive the secret to the competitive edge.

Competence breeds confidence…
But if you are trying to prove your competence through X’s and O’s and the tactics and strategies of your sport…
You will never find the confidence you truly need.

I wasn’t sad. I wasn’t angry. I was numb.
As I strolled to the back of the locker room, my eyes scanned the floor to ensure no shoes or jerseys were left behind. When I turned to leave, my gaze locked onto a poster on the wall.
“Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle.”
The poster credited that quote to Christian Larson. But that’s not who was speaking to me that day.
