If the people don’t want to do it our way, I will work to change their behavior or eliminate
them from our program.
ATT ITU DE
“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more
important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than
circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It
is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company…a
church…a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the
attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past…we cannot change the
fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing
we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude…I am convinced that
life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you…we are in
charge of our attitudes.”
by Charles Swindoll
NO EX CUSES
Any excuse for non-performance, however valid, softens the character. It is a sedative against
one’s own conscience. When a man uses an excuse, he attempts to convince both himself and
others that unsatisfactory performance is somehow acceptable. He is – perhaps
unconsciously – attempting to divert attention from performance; the only thing that counts is
his own want for sympathy. The user is dishonest with himself as well as with others. No
matter how good or how valid, the excuse never changes performance.
The world measures success in terms of performance alone. No man is remembered in
history for what he would have accomplished. History never asks how hard it was to do the
job, nor considers the obstacles that had to be overcome. It counts only one thing –
performance. No man ever performed a worthwhile task without consciously ignoring many a
plausible excuse.
To use an excuse is a habit. We cannot have both the performance habit and the excuse
habit. We all have a supply of excuses. The more we use them the lower become our
standards, the poorer our performance. The better we perform, the less plausible our excuses
become.
Next time you want to defend your sub-par performance, say instead (at least to yourself):
No Excuses!
Notice the startling effect this will have on your own self-respect. You will have
recognized your failure. You will have been honest with yourself. You will be one step closer to
the performance habit. You will be a better man for it. “We will be a better team!”
CREATE A TEAM ATMOSPHERE
LAWS OF TEAMWORK
These laws are necessary to understand and develop teamwork within your organization.
John C. Maxwell
LAW OF ACCOUNTABILITY
Accountability – Teammates must be able to count on each other at all times.
Character + Competence + Commitment + Consistency + Cohesion = Accountability
When all team members embrace each of those five qualities, within themselves and with one
another, they can achieve the accountability necessary for a team to succeed. Accountability
begins with character because it is based on trust, which is the foundation for all interaction
with people. If you want your teammates to have confidence in you, where they know they can
count on you day in and day out, then you must be consistent. NO EXCUSES!
The strength of a TEAM lies in its trust among teammates. You need to know for certain that
you can count on your teammates and they need to know that they can count on you!
LAW OF THE PRICE TAG
Pay The Price – Every team member must pay a price. There is no substitute for work.
It is the price of success! There are no victories at bargain prices, if you want to reach your
potential, you can never let up. To improve, change, or keep winning, as a group the team
must pay a price, and so must the individuals on it. There is a cost of being part of a winning
team Sacrifice, Time Commitment, Personal Development, Unselfishness, and Open
Communication between players and coaches.
1 PLAY AT A TIME
All your energy, focus and concentration on that 1 play. After it’s over, you have 100% focus on the
next play.
THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI COACHING AND TEACHING RESPONSIBILITY AND
PHILOSOPHY
TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
1. Let Your Players Know That You Care About Them! Trust Is Earned, Not Guaranteed
Communication is the most important thing between you and your players.
Developing a great relationship is vital for our team success.
3. You Must Get Your Position To Believe That You Are The Best Coach And Teacher In The
League. If The Players Don’t Believe, We Won’t Win
5. We Know What Must Be Taught – Staff Growth. Improve Schemes, But Have A Philosophy
And Sell It To The Players
So many athletes start out well, but don’t finish strong. Many of these athletes think they work hard.
However, those that don’t finish strong are not competitive.
Once again the athlete who is consistent in effort is the most valuable type of player. The athlete that
makes his body perform against all odds and against all levels of resistance is a competitor.
Throughout this total competitive effort, you see a burning desire without hesitation to get the job
done. Look to see if a player is taking the easy way out of work. Is he avoiding physical contact by
taking the long way around the play or deliberately arriving late at the point of attack.
Remember, initial effort counts, but finishing the play strong is sign of a good competitor.
While evaluating your player on the field, you must constantly critique him as a competitor! Is he a 3-
second, 4-second, or 5-second competitor. We are looking for a “6-second competitor”.
PLAN TO WIN!
We have a very clear OBJECTIVE that all decisions involving this program are made. Win in
the classroom and win on the field.
