COACHING PRINCIPLES

DO WHAT'S RIGHT
AVOID WHAT'S WRONG

Principles = recipes for success

Borrow from the best,

then make it your own.

Look for patterns.

Show, don't tell.

Own + share mistakes = freedom

DO THE BEST YOU ARE CAPABLE OF DOING

I can't BECOME something better until I let go of who I was.

Modeling works best.

Respond properly to situations.

Struggle well.

Set the standard.

SHOW OTHERS
YOU CARE

If you care to win,
first care for each other.

Nobody accomplishes anything significant alone.

You can fool a fool,

but you can't can't kid a kid.

Little things matter most.

BRING YOUR BRAIN
TO THE GAME

Walk slowly, but never backwards.

What you THINK flavors

everything you say and do.

Almost everything is a skill.

Skills can be learned & improved.

Asking questions works better

than giving answers.
