Metaphorical Dog Days


Your 'dog days' haven't even arrived. Excellent players aren't made in September through November. Jump ropes and jump boxes, trips to Hartford or Hershey, to the gym and to the weight room are separators. Kettlebells not kettle corn create champions.

How do you stay motivated, focused on the horizon? Easy answers don't exist.


Chart from Simply Psychology 

If our character exists by the time we're six or seven, then 'autocorrect' our mindset. Reject a 'fixed mindset' of 'that's the best I can do' and adopt the growth mindset of "I love challenges, I can be better, I will be better." 

Warriors coach Steve Kerr promotes an organizational philosophy of mindset, mentors, and culture. MVB has a mindset of achievement, a learning culture, and exceptional mentors in Coach Scott Celli and his coaching staff. 

Make the dog days your future halcyon days. 

Lagniappe. Be on top of the ball.
