Working your goals

"If you go to work on your goals, your goals will go to work on you.
If you go to work on your plan, your plan will go to work on you. Whatever good things we build end up building us."

— Jim Rohn

Any athletic or academic endeavor takes planning and preparation. I am impressed when I read about coaches and players that do whatever they can to be as prepared as possible for the tasks that are in front of them.

As a parent and coach the message I try to preach is to be ready for your opportunity. You never know when it may come, but be ready. Players last night in the Super Bowl had to make big plays that were not stars or major contributors when the season began.

Due to injuries it was important that they were ready and prepared to play in such a big game. Some of them that played well had been preparing for the moment on the big stage for their entire career.
