Heinrich Haarberg got some huge applause from the Husker faithful when he entered the game in the 3rd qtr last night. Why? 1.) He buys in 2.) Surrenders himself to the team 3.) Great teammate 4.) Has persevered through ups & downs People LOVE to root for great teammates!

This is what it looks like

Talking about our Engagement Cycle in Leadership Class today. Stages include: 1.) Actively Engaged "All In" 2.) Engaged 3.) Disengaged 4.) Actively Disengaged "Sabotage" We are just over 1 month in to Fall Activities Athlete: Where are you & where is your heart?

Fall teams are at least 25% done with their seasons. Are these things sucking the life out of your team? *Selfishness *Inconsistency *Dip in Standards *Entitlement *"Mickey Mouse" Problems (childish behaviors) *Lack of Resiliency *Blaming, complaining, & defending poor actions

We want to share about the ENGAGEMENT CYCLE with your team or students! Check out the board, how many valuable conversations could your team have from this lesson?

Don't be an "As long as..." type of teammate: *As long as I'm getting my playing time *As long as I'm getting the attention *As long as I'm healthy *As long as I'm meeting my goals *As long as it benefits me Great teammates are UNCONDITIONAL in their engagement!

What does a 'low maintenance' athlete look like to coaches? 1. Always give 100% in effort, energy, & focus 2. Highs & lows don't determine their mood. Mood is always steady 3. Takes care of grades 4. They're unconditional toward the team. Playing time/role does not change them

One of our goals at Free2Compete is to help young people today TAKE BACK and OWN their high school & college athletic experience. SPORTS isn't life, but it sure does create a great opportunity to DEVELOP SKILLS that will impact their life when used correctly!

Thanks Coach! We know this is your heart as you lead in Crete!

Is your behavior... ABOVE THE LINE -intentional, responsive, trained, skillful OR BELOW THE LINE -emotional, reactionary, impulsive, mindless

If you aren't training your student/athletes with how they should respond to situations that WILL pop up long before they need it, don't be surprised if they react instead.

Are your EMOTIONAL REACTIONS regularly highjacking your performance? Would you like to change it? Here's a place to start.. f2cjournal.beehiiv.com Grab a 🖊️and a 📒and start putting in some work!

4 Options on Criticism. Is it... 1.) Accurate + Good Intentions 2.) Accurate + Bad Intentions 3.) Inaccurate + Good Intentions 4.) Inaccurate + Bad Intentions Good Intention = Attempting to Add Value Bad Intention = Driven by Ego, Fear, Greed

Fall sports are close to the end Did you use the sport or is the sport using you? Using the Sport: Team 1st mindset Building relationships Becoming unselfish Finding real joy Sport using you: Me 1st mindset Jealousy Identity is with "Twitter hype" good or bad Bitter & selfish

Do people believe this anymore? Do they believe it but the chase for the ever important 'scholarship' is just too enticing? Whatever the case, kids playing multiple sports seems to be going the way of the dinosaurs....extinct. What role are adults playing in this?

Thank you for the opportunity to share with your student athletes! They were a locked in group! Now it is time to put those new "SCORECARDS" to work! 🦾🧠
