Received an email from a buddy who said he got this from the ‘Baseball Dudes’. A lot of words of wisdom.

There are some things in Life and Baseball that you can’t argue…

• Overuse injuries in children are a result of adult choices.
• You won’t grow if you are always talking.
• Development will not happen without opportunity.
• Velocity will only get you so far.
• You can’t teach experience.
• Playing and coaching are two very different things.
• Parenting IS the toughest job in the world.
• Athleticism is temporary, character is forever.
• Missed calls will always even out in the end.
• There’s a difference between a “Throwing Coach” and a “Pitching Coach.”
• There’s a difference between a “Swing Coach” and a “Hitting Coach.”
• There’s a difference between a “Manager” and a “Coach.”
• Entitlement in our youth is instilled by us adults.
• Reputation, good or bad, is earned through actions and choices.
Academics ARE more important than sports.
• For long term fulfillment, give more than you receive.
• It’s easy to take generosity for granted but the truly grateful will always show their gratitude.
• Everyone starts with trust from on another, but it’s your attitude and your choices which will either see that trust build or fade away.
• Being coachable and open minded is one of the best traits a person/athlete can possess.
• Being un-coachable and closed minded is one of the worst traits a person/athlete can possess and means you will have less to give.
• Strong physically but weak mentally equals limited success.
• Those who read are those who seek information and are those who will have more to give and offer.
• Confidence in children can either be built up or broken down by the words and actions of adults.
• Greed and Ego are major issues in youth sports.
• Mistakes made as a young person are inevitable but not the end of the world. They make for great learning experiences and character building moments.
• In the end, it’s about the impact you had on others.
• LIFE REVOLVES AROUND RELATIONSHIPS.
