Notes from Episodes 25 and 26

Sometimes life's responsibilities knock us off track, which happened to me.  My apologies! Since I have fallen behind providing show notes, below contains my takeaways from episode 25 featuring Jim Bloch and episode 26 featuring Shay Boyle.

Episode 25: Peace of Mind - How Jim Bloch Defines Success

  • Regardless of the profession, we need to understand our “why”
  • Words are indicators, but our actions are verifiable
  • If we can get kids to execute four things: Do the right thing, the right way, at the right time, and do it with max effort, we will increase our probability for success
  • Leaders need to be at their best when those they lead are at their worst (CLICK TO TWEET)
  • Eliminate the word “failure” and replace it with “setback.” Help kids manage setbacks effectively regardless of how many steps the process takes to be successful
  • Spend more time preparing kids for the path rather than preparing the path for kids

Episode 26: The Best Victories Won't be on the Court (Shay Boyle)

  • Whether it’s coaching or teaching, education is about people
  • Leaders need to be flexible, have a positive mindset, and be an energy giver
  • One common denominator of great leaders: They don't have enemies because they treat people with respect & kindness
  • There's no way we're going to know what every kid is going through, but we have to do what we need to do to make sure we understand them
  • The best victory in coaching is the development of people
  • Concentrate every day at being the best at your current position
