MESSAGE #1218 IMPROVEMENT
Players get better after their coach gets better. Students get better after their teacher gets better. Employees get better after their manager gets better. Many coaches, teachers and managers wonder why their players, students and employees are not getting optimal results. But it’s not about the players, students or employees.

MESSAGE #1211
Want to be more mentally tough? You can! Focus LESS on what you’re feeling on the inside and focus MORE on what you’re doing on the outside. Your actions change your attitudes. Your movements change your moods. Act how you want to feel and you will soon feel how you act. Try it.
