the process

CONTROLLABLES establish your HABITS. Your habits become your STANDARDS. Your standards define your CULTURE.

Controllables

Establish what you can control versus what you cannot control (ex. CAN: effort, attitude, body language... CANNOT: weather, refs, what people think, luck...)

Habits

Replace bad habits with good habits (ex. being on time replaces being late, rules being followed replaces breaking rules...)

Standards

The way things are done (ex. jerseys tucked in, respect for officials and opponents, communication with players and parents...)

Culture

What is allowed and tolerated. The lowest level permitted becomes the culture (ex. player accountability, coach professionalism, respect levels...)

The Process: Controllables → Habits → Standards → Culture
your time is valuable. you are already stretched thin. i assess where the controllables and habits of your athletic department are at now. THen coach putting systems in place to help deliver peace of mind
