The Clock Is Ticking to Tryouts

How do elite student-athletes become elite? 

1. Stay motivated. Superstar Kevin Durant wakes and asks himself, "he can I get better today?"

2. "Repetitions make reputations."

3. Influence expert Dan Pink (Drive) says, "do five more." Read five more minutes. Lift five more reps. Invest five more sprints. 

4. "Champions do extra." It's easier to push when you push by doing a workout with a teammate. 

5. Remember, it's not only about time, but about focus. Whether you call it deliberate practice or deep work, it's the quality of work that matters. 

What matters most is bringing the best version of yourself to home, school, work, and extracurricular activites every day. Attention to detail separates the best.   

Anything is possible
