No easy answers…

Champions get complacent naturally. Do not miss this truth. Humans, by our very nature, get fat when we can. Champions that transcend time build a second nature. They don’t rest so they can take it easy and congratulate themselves. They don’t rest so they can celebrate a bit longer. They don’t rest for long.

They resist.

They resist the temptation to take the next practice off. They resist the temptation to believe their own bullshit. They resist the temptation to take it for granted. They resist the temptation to take it easy. They resist the temptation to take it easy on their own. They resist temptation. They resist.

Champions need rest, recovery, and time to refresh. Champions need to celebrate and savor the moment. Champions need to resist. What do you need? What does your team need? Leaders, remember, give and receive. Are you?
