Derek Jeter’s first contract was worth $0. It was a contract with his parents. He signed it every year as a kid. Before each school year, his parents would outline their expectations. They’d put them in a contract with clauses such as: • No drugs • No alcohol • No arguing • Respect girls • Meet curfew And Derek would have to sign it. If he violated the contract, there’d be no baseball. Jeter would go on to become a New York Yankees legend and a MLB Hall of Famer. These contracts are how it started. ||| Lesson 1: Success isn’t an accident As a kid, Jeter didn’t understand the contracts. They were a hokey thing his parents did. But over time, he saw the intention behind them. “It built the framework for success,” he said. He learned that successful people aren’t that way on accident. Lesson 2: Accountability is nurtured Everyone would agree accountability is essential. But you’re not just born with it. It’s a character trait that’s taught and nurtured. This was the primary purpose of the contracts, Jeter said. Accountable people become successful people. Lesson 3: Stay grounded Jeter quickly blossomed in baseball. By 18 years old, he was one of the best prospects in the country. The Yankees drafted him No. 6 overall in the 1992 draft. But his parents didn’t let that get to him. Even as a high school senior, he had to obey the contract or he wouldn’t play. “It taught us to stay grounded,” Jeter said. ||| 3 timeless lessons: • Build a framework for success • Hold yourself accountable to it • And stay grounded They apply to everything. ||| Follow @TMitrosilis for more content like this.

Sunny Weber (SO) with a massive PR) Give credit when it is due! She ran tough today and earned every bit of this!! 🤩

@westauroraxc Thanks coach!! Such an amazing act and something I will always remember as a coach! I will let him know!!

@SandwichTrack Coach, great job instilling integrity and unity within your program! This is what it means to be a running community, as we are there for one another no matter what. Tell that young man, AWESOME JOB from Coach Rizzo and West Aurora!

Last week we talked about “contributing instead of consuming” Travis sacrificed his PR day to help an injured opponent!! Our heart is full!!

We always look forward to this meet!!

The last few minutes of a race are going to hurt, yes? In your next hard workout, be willing to hurt so that you're mentally prepared when the same thing happens in the race. Too often, athletes don't see workouts as a chance to improve mentally. Don't let that be you.

Go vote for Sunny as athlete of the week!!

It's that time of the week! Vote between now and 8 p.m. Monday for the @KCNpreps Athlete of the Week. Nominees: • @Joelle_2027, @YHSfoxesVball • Davione Stamps, @PlanoReapersAD soccer • Kiara Wesseh, @norsemenvball • Sunny Weber, @SandwichTrack kendallcountynow.secondstreetapp.com/Kendall-County…
