The real challenge for football coaches is dedication. If you cannot get athletes to dedicate to your program, you will struggle.
Coaches must establish a great, competitive atmosphere. They should stress competing with commitment, losing with honor, and winning with dignity. Coaches should always consider the environment they are creating because the team is always watching!
Dr. Michael Brown, Right Fit Communications LLC, is grounded by his 3D Philosophy: DEDICATION, DETAIL, and DISCIPLINE.
· Ded·i·ca·tion /dedəˈkāSH(ə)n/. Noun: the quality of being dedicated or committed to a task or purpose.
· De·tail /dəˈtāl,ˈdētāl/. Noun: an individual feature, fact, or item.
· Dis·ci·pline /ˈdisəplən/. Noun: to train or develop by instruction and exercise, especially in self-control.
Simply, we must be DEDICATED to the task at hand, we must pay attention to the DETAIL of what we see and what we are taught, and we must have DISCIPLINE in all things: Family, Faith, School, Community, Work, and Sports.
But again, the first challenge is to get athletes to DEDICATE! That gets coaches on the road to success.
