“I try to prepare my athletes for how fast time flies in competition. I tell them that it’s going to be over in a flash, with the hope that they’ll take the time to appreciate moments along the way. Like a parent sending kids off to college, I implore them to cherish every single moment and make memories. It doesn’t stop the competition from flying by, but they enjoy it more.” TimeParentEnjoyAppreciateCompetitionMemoryCherishMomentFastKid Book:Chasing Excellence: A Story About Building the World’s Fittest Athletes Source: Chasing Excellence: A Story About Building the World’s Fittest Athletes
“Success to me is giving full effort knowing that was the best I was capable of. That said, full effort means nothing if day-to-day preparation was not all I had. Success to me is giving everything I have into each and every day, each and every moment; training, recovery, family, friends, giving back, inspiring, loving what I do. Then, come game time, give full effort, knowing I am the best I am capable of becoming.” LoveSuccessEffortFamilyCapableBestFriendMoment Book:Chasing Excellence: A Story About Building the World’s Fittest Athletes Source: Chasing Excellence: A Story About Building the World’s Fittest Athletes
