That's So McRaven

Some find extra meaning here. We'll see how it goes. 

What's your 'ethos', your code, your "this is how I roll?" Choose excellence or something less. Alabama Coach Nick Saban says, "are you investing your time or spending it?" 

Being on the team is good enough for some. Others want a bigger role. Some want to lead and find something special. "It's your choice." 

A result is one of a thousand possible outcomes. Learn to 'see' possibility. 

  • How you do anything is how you do everything.
  • Prioritize excellence at home, in school, and on the court.
  • Never regret doing your best. 
  • Plan to improve a little each day. 
  • Build resilience. 

Notes after the McRaven video:
1. Start each day with a task completed. 2. Find someone to help you through life. 3. Respect everyone. 4. Know that life is not fair and that you will fail often. 5. Take some risks. 6. Step up when times are toughest. 7. Face down the bullies. 8. Lift up the downtrodden. 9. Give people hope. 10.Never ever give up.
