Don't whine. Find the positive in difficult situations.

Have a vision and then create your own reality. Otherwise, someone else may create it for you.

At a youth soccer game you'll probably hear parents and coaches on the sidelines yelling, 'Pass the ball! Pass the ball!' ... When we continually tell our young players to pass the ball, we're not allowing them to develop their full potential, especially those who have the ability to take their opponents on and beat them one-on-one. As a result, we run the risk of diminishing a player's artistry and potential.

Chemistry is a contribution that teammates make to each other, but it's also something a coach can create or facilitate.

I put myself around good people, including my assistant coaches. A lot of head coaches are intimidated by their assistant coaches, they'd rather get people that are far less talented than them because it's not threatening.

If you put good people around you, I guess you're smart. You learn from them and that makes you a better coach.

It takes courage to dream big and then to allow nothing to prevent you from realizing that dream.
