Themes

Life informs themes like finding something you love.

The ten year-old wore a softball uniform walking out the door. "You're going out to play softball." "No, Daddy, I'm going out to win." 

State Championship game... 2005... Melrose's first appearance. 3-2 loss.We weren't ready to win, didn't have enough offseason training. 

Practice isn't about building skills. Practice isn't about perfecting coverages. Practice isn't about finding a role. It's about the quest for excellence. 

Being punctual and prepared are expectation. Be the hardest worker. 


Get past hard, get past mad, get past sad. Press on. 

Constantly work on process. 

  • Listen better. 
  • Be a mentor. Find a mentor. 
  • Support and energize your teammates. 
  • Get more sleep. 
  • Eat better. 
Tina Turner sang The Best. Viktor Frankl wrote Man's Search for Meaning. Ted Lasso defined the power of positivity. Find your theme. Uniquely yours. 

Lagniappe. Learning.
