You don’t have to be sick to get better. No matter how great your achievements to date, there is always something you could do better or differently to reach an even higher level tomorrow

You don’t become a leader because you are given that position. You only become a leader when those you lead do what you need them to do because they want to do it with you.

Whatever your performance today, there is always something you can do better or differently tomorrow. Make time to know what that is, then do something about it. Winners do that consistently.

Success can breed success but it can also derail progress. We must learn not only how to manage defeat to move on to greater things; but also how to manage success to do so.

When it comes to selection, being able to judge who is best from CVs and performance record is less important than being able to judge who has the potential to be best at adding greater value to the team.

In preparing for tomorrow’s arenas, we know that the game will be faster. The physical part of that is clear and we know the training required for that. Just as important is the mental part of making right decisions faster and the training required for that

Whether coaching young athletes or inductees in Business or the Professions, only the most experienced coaches or other learning leaders should be involved. It is a critical learning period to establish a sound foundation for farther development

When momentum in the game shifts, we must not only be aware of what’s happening but also what’s not happening. Both inform our decision in what we do next. This is a key skill for the leadership team on the field.

Coaches cannot put greatness into an athlete. The greatness is already there. It’s our job to draw the greatness out.

Far more important than the measure of your intelligence in how much you know, is the measure of your wisdom in how well you use it.

We cannot choose or change the circumstances or conditions in the chaos of the contest but we can always choose or change our attitude. Choose to find the way to learn fast and win.

To create sustainable achievement we must constantly have a fusion of the creativity and risk taking of young players and the wisdom and stability of experienced players. This means everyone learning to be comfortable with change in the Team.

Learning, like Physical Training, is meant to be hard, not easy. In preparing and leading each learning experience, teachers and coaches must thoughtfully raise the level of challenge it represents.

To achieve any great goal you set yourself, there’s a cost to what you must do get there. The goal is yours if you are prepared to pay the price for that commitment

Yesterday’s winning performance brings no advantage in tomorrow’s arena. No matter what we or the opposition are worth on paper, the reality is that each contest starts with a blank score card..

The moment we feel comfortable in the contest, we are no longer pushing beyond the edge of risk and are under performing. Winners are uncomfortable being comfortable.

Feedback is a two way street. It’s about both coaches and athletes, it’s about both leaders and staff. It is about saying what needs to be heard professionally even if it is not what people want to hear personally.

For drivers there is a sense of pride in no longer being a “Learner”. For winners in any field of endeavour, they have a sense of pride in remaining a Learner for life.
