On Shooting, Multiple Leaders, and Making Progress
July 28 | The 3-Point Play
BASKETBALL TIP
If you can’t shoot in today’s game, you’re robbing yourself of the opportunity.
But if do learn to shoot, you’ll…
- score more points,
- be looked to as a leader,
- get to the rim more easily and
- spread the floor because you’re a greater threat.
LEADERSHIP LESSON
Can a basketball team (or a company) have more than one leader?
You bet it can.
“To be champions, every player (or employee) must be a leader — not a dictator. But an example – setting, encouraging, instructing, involved team player.”
– PGC Founder, Dick DeVenzio
LIFE PRINCIPLE
“The challenge for anyone interested in making progress is to simultaneously have…
- the confidence to go after what you want
- the humility to accept who you are right now and
- the willingness to build skills that bridge the gap between 1 and 2.”
– James Clear
