Action creates evidence ❤️ Thank you @BrianKight for your time today on the @NIAAA9100 Roundtable.
Character requires courage. Not a single act, but repeated acts of courage. • Action creates evidence. • Repeated action creates a pattern. • Patterns of behavior become character. • Character becomes identity. It's more than a choice of what you're going to do. It's a choice of who you are and who you're going to be.

Lee Trevino once said, "The only way you get confidence in playing golf is by moving dirt. The more dirt you move, the more confidence you get." Not just about golf. Growth doesn't happen unless we do the work. Move the dirt.

“All year we have been saying the talent is our floor but our character will determine our ceiling. And I am just so confident in their character, and that’s what determined how they played today.” Talent makes you comparable. Character makes you unforgettable.

Most people waste so much time trying to find the "best" way to do the work and never actually end up doing the work. The work is the shortcut. Lock in.

Why do students play high school sports? To have FUN. But in today’s “high school grind” — packed schedules, pressure to win, year-round competition and social media noise — that joy can get lost. Let's find it again. Read the NFHS Voice: nfhs.org/stories/finding-the…

You’re not the one on the mound. That's not your ball on the goal line. The last-second shot isn't yours to take. Our students are rising to meet new challenges every day. Don’t bring them down. Build them up. #BenchBadBehavior benchbadbehavior.com/posts/2…

Replacing our anger with empathy doesn’t lessen our commitment to justice. It just allows us to actually see what’s happening...

This past week has been one of gratefulness. Grateful for a new granddaughter, Jane Kai Bennett @emma.bennett13 & @parker.bennett19 who came into our lives on the same day as we laid Ben’s mom to rest. Grateful to have had a mother in law who loved so big and always showed up
