On going up strong in the lane, leading with direction, and clarifying your priorities
BASKETBALL TIP
Every coach wants an unselfish team, and every player enjoys playing on one.
But the time to be unselfish is not when you get the ball in the three-second lane.
When you get the ball in the lane, it is “Nostril Time”, time for you to get strong, time for you to go for it, time for you to score!
LEADERSHIP LESSON
“Leaders think and act at the intersection of two axes: the first, between the past and the future; the second, between the abiding values and aspirations of those they lead.
Their first challenge is analysis, which begins with a realistic assessment of their society based on its history, mores, and capacities. Then they must balance what they know, which is necessarily drawn from the past, with what they intuit about the future, which is inherently conjectural and uncertain.
It is this intuitive grasp of direction that enables leaders to set objectives and lay down a strategy.”
― Henry Kissinger
LIFE PRINCIPLE
“One of the biggest reasons we don’t achieve our goals is we say yes to too many things that are not our priority and no to too many things that are our priority.”
– Jay Shetty
