Justin's Tips
Week 6 -
Motivation & Passion
One of the things I’m always
telling players is to ask
yourself if you really want to
play football.
It's about halfway through the
season for many school
districts. You may have a slight
or bad injury that you're
nursing. You may be tired. You
may have lost focus on your
goals and have let your
classroom work slip a bit.
Now is the time when you wonder
if you have the 'Heart of an
Athlete". Are you still
motivated to do your best on the
field and in the classroom?
Motivation is defined as
'Something that causes one to
act". Do you still have the
passion...with passion defined
as having that "compelling
emotion or feeling" toward this
game?
There are a lot of distractions
in our lives. My tip to you is
to determine if you are still
motivated and still have the
passion.
-
Review
your goals.
-
Understand your purpose.
-
Re-evaluate your goals.
-
Get some
time alone to really think
about what you want to do
and what you need to do to
be successful--in your eyes.
-
If you
are a spiritual person,
spend some time with God for
guidance.
Then get back
to work!
