Are you a team with Grit and Toughness?
— Greg Berge (@gb1121) March 28, 2024
Do you:
- Have a common purpose?
- Have a team connected as ONE?
- Show resilience and perseverance?
- Bring positive energy & optimism?
- Have a collective belief that you can WIN?
GRITTY teams WIN.
TOUGH teams WIN.
How do you know? What characterizes teams with toughness?
Here are a few qualities that mark teams with mental toughness:
- Work hard daily at every practice.
- Primary focus at practice is improvement. Never be satisfied.
- Trust the process. The team plays hard and confidently regardless of the score.
- Exceptional teams win against quality teams and on the road. "Road warriors not road worriers."
- Strong teams get signature wins. In every sport, some teams win because of superior talent and can "roll the ball out there" and win. Earning your stripes against opponents who play strong schedules is entirely different.
- Tough teams do not quit. Teams can quit at the beginning of the game or at the end.
- Mentally tough teams play "harder for longer."
Don't get labeled with the "Three S's" - selfishness, "softness" or sloth (laziness)
