The guy who head coaches my youngest’s travel baseball team cracks me up.
As coaches, we all would get to the field about 15-20 minutes before practice would start.We always hammered home the idea of being on time, ready to play, shirts tucked in, and on the field.
The kids all just started arriving earlier and earlier to practice.It was just the culture of the team.
One practice we’ve got 11 out of 12 kids practicing on the field 10 minutes before practice is supposed to start.
The last dad with his kid pulls into the parking lot at 5:55.The kid jumps out of the car, runs over, hangs up his stuff, and races out on to the field.
The dad says, “I thought practice started at six.”
“Only if you want to be average,” was our coach’s response.He was kidding, and he said it with a good-natured laugh, but he was right.
Average kids show up on time.Average kids play baseball at practice.
Great kids show up early.Great kids practice between practices.
How can you be above average?Just look at what average students do.Look at what average test takers do.Look at what average clinicians do.
Then do 10% more.
Be part of the 10% more club, and you’ll just keep rising.Do what everyone else is doing, and how can you expect to be anything more than average?
But how do I do 10% more?I already do so much?
Ok, so here’s an example.
One way is to become better is to work on your skills instead of just your knowledge.You spend so much time focused on book knowledge that you are likely neglecting the skills you need to apply that knowledge.
People skills, study skills, test-taking skills, personal skill, etc
Working on those is a nice change of pace and pays HUGE dividends as you move forward.
