Get the weekly podcast coaching notes by going to thriveonchallenge.com and subscribing to the weekly newsletter! Struggle is age appropriate. Struggle builds our resiliency tank. - If you continue to bail your athlete or children out, they will lose the ability to solve problems their own as they get older. There has to be a balance between bailing them out and making them step up to the plate. Allowing Athletes to Struggle - We continue to delay the consequence of bad habits. 
 - Create environments where kids learn implicitly. 
 - We’ve robbed kids of the ability to just figure things out! 
 - Teaching kids how to talk and walk we don’t put them through “classes”. 
 - They aren’t uncoachable, they just don’t know how to learn. Advice for College Coaches - Look for it in your recruits. 
 - You need to know your standards and you better not waver. 
 - Let people experience the consequence quickly. 
 - A coaching staff who was 100% in alignment and ready to back you. We'd love to hear from you!
