Nick Saban said, "I think you get mental toughness because things are hard. You gotta embrace hard." "Tough times make hard people." Toughness requires a willingness to go beyond your current limits. It means mental flexibility.

Dabo Swinney said, "It's the optimists who change the world." A bad attitude holds you back. A great attitude takes you forward. Success starts with your mindset - every single day. "The only disability in life is a bad attitude."

"Our Standard Doesn't Change According to Who We Play. We are competing against ourselves each and every week." - Dan Lanning

Urban Meyer said, "It's so easy to be average." "Did you push yourself to be great today? If you didn't do it, you lost today. We don't have many days to lose." Excellence isn't the goal, it's the standard. It's the daily standard you set. You achieve excellence when your commitment and perseverance become routine. • It's the will to commit and compete. • It's the standard you set. • It's your daily mindset. How to Win Today with Excellence 1. Be Unrelenting in Your Work Ethic - Create a relentless approach to your work and your goals. Put forth maximum effort and focus in everything you do. It's not just what you do, but how you do. By consistently pushing yourself, you'll continue to improve. This unwavering dedication is crucial in setting you apart and leading you towards success. 2. Commit to Greatness and Your Craft - You have to be committed and dedicated to your craft. It takes focus. This commitment to excellence and continuous learning ensures constant growth and expertise in your craft. Excellence is not the destination, it's the journey. 3. Always Learn and Look to Improve - Always be on the lookout for ways to better yourself, whether it's through learning new skills, seeking feedback, or challenging existing practices. This mindset of growth keeps you adaptable and flexible when you face new challenges. 4. Uphold Daily Consistency and Discipline - Establish and adhere to a regular routine that supports your goals. By practicing discipline in your daily habits, you create a foundation for consistent progress and achievement. This consistency is the bedrock of excellence, transforming ambitious goals into reality. 5. Choose Resilience and Grit - Resilience is a choice. Accept that there will be adversity and by embracing this adversity, you have the opportunity to learn and grow stronger. This power of resilience not only helps you overcome immediate obstacles but also builds your character, essential for long-term success and fulfillment. 6. Build the Vision then Prioritize - Build the vision of what you want, how you're going to get there, and then attack. This is important because it focuses you on what matters. It prioritizes what is important to help you manage your energy and attention every day. You wake up each day knowing the vision, where to concentrate, and how to get there.

"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are." - Teddy Roosevelt Remember: Action doesn’t have to be perfect for it to be right.

"I believe in one Creator, that I've been called to come out here, do my best, compete and glorify God, and that's pretty much it." - World #1 Golf Scottie Scheffler

Why did God create evil? A professor at the university asked his students the following question: - Everything that exists was created by God? One student bravely answered: - Yes, created by God. - Did God create everything? - a professor asked. “Yes, sir,” replied the student. The professor asked : - If God created everything, then God created evil, since it exists. And according to the principle that our deeds define ourselves, then God is evil. The student became silent after hearing such an answer. The professor was very pleased with himself. He boasted to students for proving once again that faith in God is a myth. Another student raised his hand and said: - Can I ask you a question, professor? "Of course," replied the professor. A student got up and asked: - Professor, is cold a thing? - What kind of question? Of course it exists. Have you ever been cold? Students laughed at the young man's question. The young man answered: - Actually, sir, cold doesn't exist. According to the laws of physics, what we consider cold is actually the absence of heat. A person or object can be studied on whether it has or transmits energy. Absolute zero (-460 degrees Fahrenheit) is a complete absence of heat. All matter becomes inert and unable to react at this temperature. Cold does not exist. We created this word to describe what we feel in the absence of heat. A student continued: - Professor, does darkness exist? — Of course it exists. - You're wrong again, sir. Darkness also does not exist. Darkness is actually the absence of light. We can study the light but not the darkness. We can use Newton's prism to spread white light across multiple colors and explore the different wavelengths of each color. You can't measure darkness. A simple ray of light can break into the world of darkness and illuminate it. How can you tell how dark a certain space is? You measure how much light is presented. Isn't it so? Darkness is a term man uses to describe what happens in the absence of light. In the end, the young man asked the professor: - Sir, does evil exist? This time it was uncertain, the professor answered: - Of course, as I said before. We see him every day. Cruelty, numerous crimes and violence throughout the world. These examples are nothing but a manifestation of evil. To this, the student answered: - Evil does not exist, sir, or at least it does not exist for itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is like darkness and cold—a man-made word to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is not faith or love, which exist as light and warmth. Evil is the result of the absence of Divine love in the human heart. It’s the kind of cold that comes when there is no heat, or the kind of darkness that comes when there’s absence of light.

Mike Norvell's Orange Bowl post-game speech is chilling

You, and you alone, are in control of EVERYTHING in your life. You CHOOSE to be a victim or a Victor. You are the problem and YOU ARE THE SOLUTION! Always look within. The first day of my life was at 34 years old when one night in tears I swore to myself NEVER again would I blame: •My wife •My boss •My upbringing •The President or economy My life was a sum of my DECISIONS & I am in control of all of them!

There’s always a bigger plan at work!

From page 235 of my book "Stay Positive”.

A powerful lesson every leader needs to hear... In 1962, President John F. Kennedy visited NASA. The year prior, he made his famous proclamation: The United States would put a man on the moon by the end of the 60s. On his visit, the story goes, he meets a janitor. The man is sweeping the hallways when JFK approaches him. “Hi, I’m Jack Kennedy,” he says to the janitor. “What are you doing?” The janitor responds: “Mr. President, I’m helping put a man on the moon.” This story may be legend more than truth. Regardless, it has a powerful lesson: To the janitor, his work was meaningful. He did not simply sweep dust. By cleaning hallways, he: • Provided a safe work environment • Supported the NASA engineers • Contributed to the mission The janitor had what so many want: a sense of purpose. There are many reasons we work. • To make money • To find fulfillment • To improve our lives Everyone has their own motivations, but we all want a sense of purpose. We all want to know our time isn’t wasted. We all want to believe we’re doing good. How do you find purpose in your work? Here’s the simplest approach I’ve found: • Identify WHO you serve • Clarify WHY you serve them • Connect HOW your work contributes Then remind yourself of that every day. A job can be a "job," but it can also be more than that. It can be your version of putting someone on the moon. --- Thanks for reading. Follow @TMitrosilis for more content like this.

Tucker Carlson was fired from Fox News just four months ago… Instead of sitting back and pouting, this man started his own show, built his own studio, is interviewing guests unfiltered by the corporate media and will now be stealing the show from Fox News next week by interviewing Trump during the GOP debate. Legend 🔥

Money won’t make you happy but it will make your life more peaceful. Getting fit won’t make you happy but it will make your life peaceful. Happiness is an inside job but becoming more peaceful helps attract it easier.

BREAKING: Dave Portnoy has bought back all of Barstool Sports in part to protect free speech. Love to see it 🔥 “For the first time in forever, we don't have to watch what we say, how we talk, what we do, it's back to the pirate ship.” “I am never going to sell Barstool Sports ever. I'll hold it till I die.” “This is now gonna be place for content, content, content, content. Every time I think I'm out, they pull me back in. That's right. I'm not going anywhere.” 🔥🔥🔥

Truly grateful on this day. Thank you 🙏🏻❤️
