You pay $21 for @Westjet internet and the best thing you can do is send a tweet. Forget watching @CanadaSoccerEN in the World Cup.. Time to upgrade your internet to @Starlink

This playhouse will get 14 tons of dirt piled on it and thousands of people will get to view our structure in the @UtahValleyPOH.
If this is the playhouse just wait until you see the main home..

Steve Nash shares the truth about the journey to greatness.
"You don't have to be the chosen one."
"The secret is to build the resolve and spirit to enjoy the plateaus - the times when it doesn't feel like you're improving and you question why you're doing this."
Most people quit during the plateau. Learn to embrace it.
"If you're patient, the plateaus will become springboards."
Progress isn't linear. The flat moments aren't wasted - they're building.
"Never stop striving, reaching for your goals until you get there."
"But the truth is, even when you get there - even when you get here, standing on this stage - it's the striving, fighting, pushing yourself to the limit every day that you'll miss and you'll long for."
"You'll never be more alive than when you give something everything you have."
The destination isn't the reward - the journey is.
Enjoy the process and fall in love with the climb because that's where life happens.
FSD v14.2.1 backs out of a long, narrow, snow packed driveway and then in the same trip it does something even crazier…
Pickup trucks slip in the winter because they have so much weight on the front with the engine, while the box is usually significantly lighter causing the back wheels to lose traction on ice. My F-350 weighs approximately 4,492 lbs on the front vs 2,994 lbs on the back.

Two boys—ages 10 and 3–jumped 30 feet from a burning building in Grenoble, France. Two of the six adults who caught them broke their arms.
Amazing heroism.

Mark Daigneault said something that should reshape how every defender thinks about the game:
“The players are too talented and the teams are too good to let them have their way… What does the opponent want the game to look like — and how can we disrupt that?”
That’s not just a quote. It’s a defensive philosophy.
Too many defenders grow up thinking defense is about reacting — sliding laterally, staying in front, and seeing what will happen to them. But at the highest levels, the offense isn’t going to beat itself. If you allow great players to dictate where they go, when they go, and how they go, you’ve already lost the possession.
What Daigneault is really describing is disruptive control. The idea that defense isn’t passive, but active. Rhythm is offense’s greatest weapon, and disruption is defense’s.
The best defenders don’t wait to react to what the offense is doing. They decide what the offense is allowed to do. They determine the terms of engagement. That is one of the biggest mindset shifts for developing defenders.

Coaching and impact 101 👇🏼
PLAYERS SHOULDN'T DREAD HALF TIME OR TIMEOUTS.
We teach children that timeouts are safe, and we encourage adults to take breaks. The DATA says this should be the same for athletes.
You CAN steal points during TOs, but not if they sound like this:
'The other team just wants it more.'
'Get your ass back on D.'
'Do you guys actually believe this team is better than you guys?'
Break huddle.
COMPOSED- get the players off of the emotional rollercoaster through your body language.
ACTIONABLE- 1-3 actions or solutions that need to be addressed with a CLEAR HOW.
PREPARED- game cards with solutions for different outcomes and scouts are critical.
SIMPLE- 8-9 seconds is the average attention span. We are adding physical and mental stress to that in game. VALUE with fewer words is important.
POSITIVE- this is hard. We've all been there. But research shows that athletes at every level respond to positivity exponentially more than negativity.
JOY IS A COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE.
Joe Mazulla has mastered this.
