After over a year of work, I am proud to partner with @IronLightLabs and @iHeartRadio to bring An Army of Normal Folk to life. It’s a podcast and maybe even a movement. I hope you enjoy. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/an-…
“The secret is to work less as individuals and more as a team. As a coach, I play not my eleven best, but my best eleven.” -Knute Rockne (one of the greatest football coaches of all time)
“If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn’t sit for a month.” -Theodore Roosevelt
“Each one of us has a comfort zone. The problem comes when we are unwilling to leave it.” -From my book, Against the Grain a.co/d/20iNw4X
The true measure of a person’s character is how one handles one’s failures, not successes.
As we start the New Year, I want to reflect on an important topic I have learned a lot about throughout my life: dreams. Many people set goals and dream for progress in the New Year. So, Let’s Talk Shop. #letstalkshopcoachbill coachbillcourtney.com/the-power-of-d…
Chris Madison, a star player for my teams in 2003-04 died New Years Eve. Please pray for his mom, Jackie and her family. Having been paralyzed in a car wreck years ago, he continued to smile and fight despite being confined to a wheelchair. Lisa and I loved Chris & will miss him.
I can't wait to read #Unguarded, the new memoir from @ScottiePippen co-written by my friend Michael Arkush. The Pippen story is truly amazing, the way he overcame a difficult upbringing to become one of the game's all-time greats. @AtriaBooks bit.ly/pippenbook
Really excited about this new podcast called “20 for 20”: 20 incredible stories about 9/11 to commemorate its 20th anniversary. Today’s college freshmen weren't even alive on 9/11 and we must tell these stories to keep them in our cultural memory. #20for20 20for20Podcast.com
"In the marathon of life, there is no finish line." - From my Book, Against the Grain
"Leaders give credit to others when things go right, and accept blame when things go wrong." - From my book, Against the Grain
"My philosophy of coaching doesn't start with X's and O's. It starts with believing that players win games and coaches win players." - From my book, Against the Grain
What Dr. Rudd has accomplished as President of the University of Memphis is nothing short of remarkable. His leadership has brought increased enrollment, numerous capital improvements, and unmatched athletic achievements. Dr. Rudd, you will be missed! dailymemphian.com/article/20571/…
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better." - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt, Citizenship in a Republic - 1910
"Trying to overcome failure is actually an opportunity, not a burden." - From my book, Against the Grain
"Approach each new day as a new opportunity to be the person you aspire to be." -From my book, Against the Grain.
Here is some Monday food for thought. #maximizeyourtime
To live a sustainable lifestyle, you must have boundaries. Outside of boundaries you find Chaos - inside of boundaries you find Order. Boundaries help you focus, self-regulate, and manage your relationships. If you do not know what your boundaries are, try to define them.
