The Fine-Tuned Athlete

@DeionSanders And today is the beginning of the rest of your life. So, give it everything you got because you only get one chance in this thing called life!

Let’s Go! Yesterday is gone and tomorrow ain’t promised therefore today will get everything I got! #CoachPrime

@russellbrunson 1000%, the sooner you get started, the sooner you begin to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Don’t sit around waiting for it to come to you. You mush go and get started.

The faster you move, the more paths appear. Momentum is the currency of new opportunities.

Normalize giving it your all whether you truly care about it or not.

Something all athletes should understand at an early age. It’s okay to not love your sport, but it’s not okay to not give it everything you got. Our choices are the only thing in our control. Once you make a commitment, follow through.

@drgurner People are okay with just being okay. But, those of us who truly desire greatness just need to take the leap of faith. After that, the rest will be taken care of through our habits and mindset.

How will you know what you can do, if you never try for anything you want?

@readswithravi Creating new habits start with an open-mind. Give yourself the opportunity to see past what’s in front of you and look at everything as an opportunity.

You only have 1 life. It’s up to you how you choose to live it.

@YouthInc @Gladwell This is the best advice you can give parents with younger kids. Passion far outweighs everything. When kids truly find love and enjoy the game, everything else will come naturally.

Malcolm @Gladwell on youth sports: 👉 Stop chasing the “pre-elite” dream. 👉 Start building a love for the sport. Because passion lasts longer than pressure.

@SportPsychTips Pressure builds diamonds. Be grateful for the pressure, it means you have the potential to be truly great.

Train your mind to stay calm under pressure. Keep putting yourself in pressure situations until you get comfortable being uncomfortable.

Be grateful for the opportunity you have because some people who do anything to be in your position. Remember that the next time you want quit.

@CoachKurtHines Even getting .01% better is a W. Never compare yesterday’s accomplishments to today’s success.

@drgurner Betting on yourself comes in many different forms. Don’t feel obligated to go all in gambling. Betting on yourself can also mean committing to yourself and proving that you will become successful. Bet on yourself for yourself!

If you are willing to take bets on yourself, that's the whole game.

We got 1% better today!

Greatness takes time. Trust the process.

@ProfFeynman Curiosity, the power that allows you to never plateau.

The smartest people are those who never stop asking questions.

@thewinningdiff1 Being the hardest worker means no shortcuts, just committed to the relentless grind. It's the secret sauce that forges contributors into athletes who dominate.

“Everyone is always going to fail. If you’re not trying or if you’re not failing, then you’re not pushing yourself hard enough. When you put in the work and you’re the hardest worker, sometimes it’s ugly. You just have to stack the days,” Sophie Cunningham

@SportPsychTips Culture has the power to transform a talented kid with no work ethic into a top-tier prospect. It’s the foundation of character that fuels excellence in sport and life.

Culture is the glue that holds a team together. With a strong culture, a team can overcome adversity and reach their full potential.

@russellbrunson Progress is one of the hardest things to notice when you’re constantly chasing the best. Seize your moments, take advantage of every opportunity and turn it into true progression.

Progress feels slow… until it doesn’t. Keep stacking the days.

Never let a day go to waste. Get up and get after it.

@KevinDeShazo Consistency is the first step to changing your journey. Without consistency you can never expect to become great.

Consistency is showing up no matter how you feel, no matter how yesterday went, no matter the score. It is showing up because you made a commitment to yourself, to the team, to the process. Consistency is a superpower. Consistency is a choice.
