Definite Dozen--Work Smart


I consider the opportunities to have worked with Coach Meyer and Coach Summitt as experience in laboratories of excellence. As each day passes, I realize the many lessons they passed on, that I didn't get at that time. I treasure those lessons more and more as I continue to grow on and off the floor.
Both Coach Meyer and Coach Summitt taught not just to work hard, but to work smart. Here are some more Definite Dozen thoughts:
  • Don't mistake activity for achievement--Wooden
  • Know what you can do to help the team
  • "Great compliment for this team, you're not only athletic, talented but smart.
  • Becoming smarted as a team begins individually.
  • Be a student of the game. Challenge you to watch more tape, study the game more.
  • Don't put things off. Catch things early.
  • Don't be afraid to ask for help. Don't pretend you understand.
  • Spend your time and energy on things you need to produce.
