Tom Brady shares the advice that changed his career and his mindset. He was at Michigan - he was only getting 2 practice reps while the starter got 20. He was complaining to sports psychologist Greg Harden: "How can I ever get better? All these guys get all the reps and I only get 2." Greg's response changed everything: "Just go in there and focus with the 2 that you got and make them as perfect as you possibly can." Focus on what you can control. So that's what he did. "They'd put me in for those 2. Man, I'd sprint in there like it was Super Bowl 49. 'Let's go boys! Here we go! What play we got?'" "I did really well with those 2 'cause I brought enthusiasm, I brought some energy, and I had a little more confidence in myself." You don't get what you want in life - you get what you earn. It starts with showing up and earning it every single day. "It went from 2 reps to getting 4 reps because those 2 were pretty good. Then I had 4 good reps. Then I got 10 good reps." You can always try to lead the team in effort, attitude, and perspective because it takes no talent. Then he shared the mindset shift: "Focus on what you can control. Focus on what you're getting, not what anyone else is getting. Whenever you get an opportunity, you take advantage of it. You treat it like it's the Super Bowl." Stop complaining about what you don't have. Dominate what you do. Opportunity doesn't care about fairness - it rewards how ready you are. (🎥PBD Podcast )

Said before and I’ll say it again… One of my favorite things about sports is what it demands from any athlete who aspires to be great. Speaking specifically to baseball, but absolutely relatable to other sports, is IT DOES NOT CARE about your feelings!! • Feeling sorry for yourself doesn’t work. • Feeling angry about others performance, teammates and umpires, doesn’t work. • Complaining about being sore doesn’t work. • Whining about playing conditions doesn’t work. • You have a headache, your opponents don’t care. • You have a sprained ankle, your opponents don’t care. • You’re in a slump, I’m not going to go easy on you. • You’re unhappy with playing time, moping around isn’t going to help, you better find a way to get and be better. There is no place for soft in the game. (Coincidentally, there’s no place for it in the real world either!) The higher you get in the game, it demands mental stability. There’s nowhere to hide. Your weaknesses will be exposed faster than ever before. As coaches and parents, one of our main goals should be to help our kids and players with this required absolute. And WE better be the example of mentally stability. If we aren’t, WE are part of their weakness.

Hey @RammelD7, did you see this? #LoveInABigWorld @Jay_L_Townsend

Ummm….. this is insane! Not sure who to credit this video to but the lines in Bloomington in preparation for tonight’s national championship game are wild! Go Hoosiers!

I have covered college football, college basketball, the NBA, the NFL and the Olympics… I have been to the Masters, the Ryder Cup, and the Open Championship. This Indiana Football run is historic.

Hey @RammelD7 @NS317SbDad @crazytequilaguy did you know this? #Historic #Perfection #Knight2Cignetti @dandakich @notthefakeSVP @espn

Aces win the home opener! #ForTheAces x #PlayToWin

@neuraluxeOS @SahilBloom This is so true in so many relationships! Successful work Teams. Successful Sports Teams. Successful families. And certainly successful marriages & partner relationships! Do you complete me and do I complement you? So simple but so powerful!

I’m convinced that 99% of a successful marriage is just genuinely enjoying each other’s company. People make these long lists of traits they want to find in a partner, but so much of life just comes down to being kind and pleasant to be around.
