THE CLUTCH KID! Joonsung Park puts us in front! #GoBlue

My son came home from karate with a white belt. I asked what it meant. He said: "You know nothing. You have an opportunity to learn everything." That stopped me cold. I was an MLB manager at the time. Most leaders confuse experience with wisdom. They've "seen it all" so they stop listening, stop asking, stop being curious. But the leaders who last longest never stop being students. They have the White Belt Mentality. Here are 3 principles of the White Belt Mentality. Principle 1: Approach every room like you have something to learn. The moment you walk in thinking you already have the answers, you've lost. • Ask more questions than you give answers • Seek out people who challenge your thinking • Be the first to say "I don't know but let's figure it out together" The leaders who stay curious outlast the ones who think they've arrived. Principle 2: Your team will teach you. When I was managing the Pirates, my best ideas didn't come from strategy sessions. They came from conversations with players, coaches, and support staff who were closest to the problem. I had to listen, not just wait to talk. Actually listen. People tell you exactly what they need, if you're willing to hear it. Principle 3: Build habits that force you to keep growing. Staying a white belt isn't an attitude, it's a daily practice. • Carry a journal and write down what you learn, not just what you do • Spend a few months learning from one voice, book, or mentor, and then follow the seeds to the next • Seek out people who tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear The best leaders in any room aren't the ones with the most experience. They're the ones still acting like they have the most to learn.

Friday May 1-Burn summer payment day! If you forgot please know these roster spots will be filled asap to ensure our teams remain competitive. Players looking to play this summer can register at floridaburn.com. Waiting list players will be contacted in the coming days.
