FIND THEIR WHY
“The willingness to prepare is more important than wanting to win.
Preparing to be great begins with WHY?”
Mr. Jones wants the new S500 Mercedes Benz with jet black exterior and the baseball-mitt brown leather interior. To afford such a luxury, he realizes he has to work overtime for the next few years. Mr. Jones found his “Why” (his new dream car), so he’s happy to put in

Junior athletes need to choose between being a champion or a “normal” kid. They also need to buy into their “WHY”- intrinsic motivation.

intelligent athletes put in the daily work.
