Truth. Trust. Belief. Dreams.

“In our program, the truth is the basis of all that we do. There is nothing more important than the truth because there’s nothing more powerful than the truth. Consequently, on our team, we always tell one another the truth. We must be honest with one another. There is no other way.”

~ Coach K ~

 

 

If truth is not present then neither can trust be present. 

 

Without trust there cannot be belief. 

 

In the absence of belief, achievement of dreams does not happen

 

When dreams are crushed, all is lost.

 

 

 

 

If I had to choose one thing to share with coaches this quote would be it. Failing to abide by this is the quickest and surest way to lose a team.  I have seen this first hand from a parental perspective.  It's gut wrenching for all involved.  Coach, just man up. Forget political correctness and tell the truth.  It all starts with you as leader of the program, as leader of the team.
