It's Your Choice

It's your choice! A lot of times young players give away their power to other things, situations, or circumstances. They allow for things to just to happen while the sit by, idling and wishing for something to miraculously occur. I’m here to tell you that the player who you become is 100% your choice.

There’s a popular saying that everyone everyday has the same 24 hours and we all choose what we do with it. From the time we wake up until the time we go to bed, it’s time for us to reflect at the end of each day we should be attracting what we want and working to get it. Our choices should be aligned with the desires of our hearts. We should be eliminating distractions that try to draw us away from our goals and purpose.

I love the book the Energy Bus. Jon Gordon the author of the book shares his 10 things we should do to have the ride of our life. His list is as follows:

1. You’re the driver of your bus.

2. Desire, vision, and focus move your bus in the right direction.

3. Fuel your ride with positive energy.

4. Invite people on your bus and share your vision for the road ahead.

5. Don’t waste your energy on those who don’t get on your bus.

6. Post a sign that says no energy vampires allowed on your bus.

7. Enthusiasm attracts more passengers and energizes them during the ride.

8. Love your passengers

9. Drive with purpose

10. Have fun and enjoy the ride.

    
    

I love his advice and have this posted on my mirror for me to read everyday. This reminds me of what it takes for anyone who wants to be successful and achieve greatness has to be locked in.

Many people want to join or ride your bus once they see you have done all the hard work and they want to get something from you. Choose wisely with whom you connect with.

The thing I love about our family at ABP is that our family is likeminded about what we are going after each day. This allows us to push and challenge each other to be better everyday. Our coaches and trainers are choosing to keep the standards high and negotiating with what is required to make players better.

Everything comes down to the small choices we make everyday. We choose to be great or we choose to be mediocre. Either way we have to live with the choices we make. If you have chosen to be great keep going and let nothing or nobody stop you. If you haven’t chosen to be great or fear is getting in your way remove it. Choose to start being the best version of yourself today!

After all, it’s your choice!!
