According to Coach Eric de los Santos of Irving High, athletes want discipline because it equals freedom. The team at 2 Words definitely agrees. Coaches expect things from their athletes that the kids might not expect of themselves, and discipline is the only way to make it a reality. Discipline gives us the space to learn and grow within boundaries that keep us safe and focused. It gives us the freedom to succeed.
In this episode, Coach Eric also gives advice on working with athletic program and community traditions, learning from mistakes, and creating leaders through athletic programs.
Key Takeaways:
-There are always lessons to be learned from mistakes.
-If you want leaders, you have to help create them.
-Understand that you are learning every single day.
