You can't become an elite athlete without unwavering belief in yourself. If you don't truly believe you can reach that level, you never will #athletemindset

Pay attention to the actions you are taking today to improve

Each day provides you with opportunities to create positive momentum toward your goals.

Each day you have choices.

Each day you are responsible for being resilient in your pursuit of your goals.

If you are an athlete who blames others for failures but takes credit for the successes then you are doing it wrong.

In order to achieve a higher level in your athletic performance/career, your first action must be belief.

If you are wondering what a coach is like, ask them what their coaching philosophy is as well as their vision for their team. If they struggle to answer, they will probably struggle in coaching you.

“Pay attention to when you are choosing to do what other people are avoiding to do.”—Dr Coleen Hacker

One sign of a good coach is that they talk to their team in terms they understand

A true leader does not prevent others from working towards the greater good and vision of the team. True leaders encourage rather sabotage with negative divisive energy. #team #leaders #athletes #sports

What makes you a distinct member of your team?

You must be able to answer this if you want to be an above average. Know what makes you stand out. Know what gifts you have to give #athlete

Elite #Athletes Understand:

What motivates them
What makes them unique
That losses are teaching moments
That they should never be
satisfied with mediocrity
That they should always be challenged.

That they should be #RESILIENT

Confidence is easily
found after a success

But those who are resilient
find ways to climb back
even stronger after
a misstep, loss
or even failure.

Be resilient. #confidence #athleticmindset #Mindset #coaching #Resilience #success #sports #athletes

Was the legacy that you want to build for yourself visible in your actions today?

To be successful
you must understand
the difference between
confidence and mentality.

Confidence is a feeling
Mentality is an attitude

Your confidence can very from day to day
But your mentality is
what is going to push you
to success. #mentality #confidence #mindset #athleticmindset

Wearing my late Father’s heavy flannel shirt while Chris Cornell’s song “Seasons” playing is all the emotional support I need this morning. Comfort. Now time to win the day.

You must know that your confidence level is always changing. It is never consistently perfect.

How you respond to your changes of #confidence matters.

Even “strong” people struggle with

Asking for help
Knowing when to reset
Celebrating small wins
Resting

But learning to do these things with purpose is essential for your success

Be coachable. Be resilient.

There’s a difference between being intense and being out of control.

Do not lose control and cost you or your team the chance for success

#athleticmindset #mindset #athletes #success #sports

To be a consistent successful elite athlete, you must have belief that you can achieve this.

You have to have belief in yourself.

This is non-negotiable.

Conversation with tween daughter:
Me: move I need my flannel
K: you are wearing a flannel
Me: it’s a 2 flannel day
K: you are obsessed with flannels

What happens when you were in high school in 1992 and from NW Ohio 😂

Embrace the emotional support flannel

Resilient athletes understand that they need to continue to practice what they are good at combined with aggressively improving the areas where they are weak—from my upcoming book, “The Resilient Athlete”

Don’t be complacent —be #resilient.

What are your actions going to be today that either create positive momentum towards success or sustain momentum towards success #athlete #coach #athleticmindset #mindset #momentum

Resilient athletes learn not only from when they fall short but also when they are successful.
Enjoy your win
But never be complacent after winning

Always learning
Always striving to be better
Always be resilient.

Complacency often leads to wake up calls that are often too late. Never underachieve. Always strive to be better. Be a resilient athlete.

Game on…

Loved being back in the bleachers and watching MND v Seton.

Teaching 1-3rd graders during the first snowfall of the season is more challenging than coaching a championship game 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ all lined up at the windows
