Basketball: Work, Double Bonus

Thoughts for a sleepy Sunday. 

"Nothing works unless you do." 

"Do the unrequired work."

"Champions do extra." - James Kerr, in Legacy

"Old men grow great by planting trees in whose shade they will never sit." - Greek Proverb

When given an opportunity to improve, "always say yes."

"Never cheat the drill." 

"Do five more." - Dan Pink  (Read or write five more pages. Do five more sprints or reps. Make five more calls.)

"Always do your best." - Don Miguel Ruiz in The Four Agreements

"You can run with the big dogs or sit on the porch." 

"Are you investing your time or spending it?" - Nick Saban 

Lagniappe. 


  • The illusion of choice
  • Develop relationships.
  • Finish. "It's about what you're willing to do."
  • Communicate individually.
  • Value second chances.
  • Trust the process. 
  • Set standards for yourself.
