Standing on the mound w/ 50,000 screaming opposing fans and he would say to himself “control the mechanism” and the noise was silenced…
When I take a trip down memory lane, when I look at these 5 year visions that all have some detail around family, personal, financial, faith, love life, health, it’s amazing to see the progression, excuse the language but the sh%t works!!
“I just want to tell you, in our system it says that you’re really nice, and I just wanted to say that I agree, you are”.
My hope is for anyone that has a single person report to them, that you understand that you have a legit responsibility to understand work/life goals of your team members.
I’m feeling like its Christmas, I’m Santa, and I want to see the kids come down the stairs to see the gifts I’ve bestowed upon them. Santa/SuperDad is in the house.

Human capital is alive and well. I think it would be a bit of false humility to say “oh shucks, I’m not sure how this happened”. Truth is our team’s top priority is caring about each other, and investing in each other first.
I can proudly say at 47, and something that I know to be 100% true is if you focus on your own internal goodness, everything else compounds on the outside.
It’s refreshing to see someone with so much passion for the betterment of a program and your child. It’s also a massive reminder for me, as a parent, a coach, and a human, on how much we’re capable of accomplishing when we throw those limiting beliefs out the door.
