Firehoses and Filters

Tens of thousands of thoughts rampage through our heads daily. Some change lives, others need to be fired, filed, or filtered.

The Super Bowl champion Eagles adopted principles from Kobe Bryant. Expecting ultraprofessional behaviors from adolescents is a big ask. 

Asking for commitment to personal responsibility, team first behavior, and will to improve is just common sense.

A favorite leadership book is "Legacy" by James Kerr, about the Championship rugby team the New Zealand All-Blacks. One of their core principles is to "leave the jersey in a better place." When you gaze upon the volleyball banner, remember that many have come before you and built something for you to expand upon. 

Remember that the most important game is always the next one.
