On short snappy passes, becoming an innovator, and discovering your capabilities
May 30 | The 3-Point Play
BASKETBALL TIP
Whenever you meet a full-court press or any sort of pressure – SNORT.
Be tough. And throw SNappy, shORT passes.
No pressure defense can bother tough players who throw snappy short passes.
LEADERSHIP LESSON
“Innovation is the opposite of average. It is refusing to coast, rejecting the status quo, and having the courage to shake up the meaningless routines that lead to laziness.
Innovation is the act of exploring new ideas, and every leader must develop this habit in his own life if he wants to become a change maker.
Innovators are authentic voices, not just echo chambers.”
– Brad Lomenick
LIFE PRINCIPLE
“There doesn’t seem to be a more worthwhile endeavor to dedicate your life to than to see what you are capable of.”
– Dan Koe
