One of my favorite parts of Coach Meyer's basketball camps as a coach were the coaches meetings on the first day of camp. I'm not sure how many camps I have worked for Coach Meyer but no coaches orientation was ever the same. You never knew what tangent he would head off on or what topics he would cover. I just wanted to share of few of the things from one of my camp notebooks.
- Coaches with a strong value system last the longest in coaching.
- You must want to be better, you must want to work.
- Effort and Attitude are the only two things you can change about yourself.
- Look for work and chances to teach.
- Learn from other coaches.
- Move people mentally.
- You get what you inspect, expect and accept.
- The most important thing is to be a team.
- You become what you think about.
- "The Great Stone Face"--Nathaniel Hawthorne--you become what you concentrate on. What you put in your mind is what you become.
- Show kids, don't just tell them.
- Values--not religion-->friendship, thankfulness, caring, humility
- Servant attitude
