Goals should be realistic, attainable, and shared among all members of the team

Courage gives a leader the ability to stand straight and not sway, no matter which way the wind blows.

A common mistake among those who work in sport is spending a disproportional amount of time on "x's and o's" as compared to time spent learning about people.

During the season, your team should be led with exuberance and excitement. You should live the journey. You should live it right. You should live it together. You should live it shared.

You should be disappointed in a loss and exhilarated in a win. It's all about the journey.
