Hello readers,
Have you ever questioned your motives, or who you really are? Its not a bad thing because everyone has. Growing up trying to please your peers, doing homework because your mom or dad told you to versus doing it because you should, showing up 30 minutes earlier to practice because you want to be better than the next player. These are all things that we have dealt with in our lives as students-athletes. Being a student-athlete, comes with responsibilities, being a great student-athlete comes with even greater responsibilities. Putting in extra work to be the best you can be is something that you do out of self motivation, and a commitment to being the best you, that you can be. A average student-athlete, does just enough to get by and is satisfied with being average. Being a great student-athlete gives you multiple options in life, being average, could provide you with those same opportunities if your lucky, but why not give yourself the best possibilities to go beyond your expectations. Put in extra work in the classroom to get an A versus settling for a B, get to the gym 30 minutes earlier to get some shots up, or be ready to go when practice is suppose to start, grab a teammate that isn't as motivated as you and help pull him in the right direction, these are just a few things that could be done in creating a successful student-athlete. Grind now to make your future easier, this has been the ways of parents from generations and generations to come, make a family member smile, be the best you for you, and nobody else.....stamp your student-athlete title with a SELF MOTIVATED!!!!!
Wishing all the best to all student-athletes,
Blessings!!!!!
