Day 1 of year 6! ✅

I don't want you worrying about people on the outside or even the person sitting next to you. This is a you vs. you battle. Whether it's the preparation of mind and body, the understanding of the game, you need to continually get better. Mike Tomlin on expectations:

Discipline is winning the battle against your feelings everyday. Sometimes we know what we need to do daily to accomplish our goals, but we don’t always feel like doing them. Your goals don’t care how you feel. Lean into Discipline.

You wanna be the greatest on your team?… Start by becoming the greatest FOR your team! • Show up early • Pay attention • Give everything you’ve got • Empower others • Do the little things right • Go above and beyond • Be selfless • Lead by example

Be intentional with who you spend your time with, choose your squad wisely, and commit today to be someone who influences others in a positive way.

The source is strong in TX history! Polk getting after it today learning about Primary and secondary sources! @CFB_Soc_Studies @mrschapmanedu @truong_terri #CFBSourceForce
