How do we fashion our lives into SHIP shape?
1. Sobriety. Sobriety doesn't only mean abstinence from alcohol and drugs. It means freedom from poor influences and unhealthy ego-driven choices.
2. Humility. Humility is the capacity not to think less of ourselves but to think about ourselves less. We function at a higher level when we learn from both wins and losses and treat people well regardless of our power over them.
3. Integrity. Commit to doing the right thing at all times. "Do the next right thing right now" is how Don Meyer expressed it. We want to translate personal integrity into team integrity.
4. Purpose. Do we want passion or purpose? Live intentionally; play with purpose. "False hustle", "buddy running", and "random play" are fool's gold in sport. Be directed and invest our time instead of spending it. Purpose advance other's lives; passion advances our own desires.
5. Bake "SHIP" shape (the acronym above) into our process.
