Communicating with those we care about

Communicating with those you care about

"Be open, be honest, be real, be clear and have fun going through every process.""It's tough to talk to kids who have already arrived and easy to talk to kids who are pushing to get to the next level."

"Carpe diem" Seize the day."

"It doesn't matter where we start or where we are today. The only thing that matters is where we end up."

"Conviction is what keeps you going. Stay the course. Don't compromise your beliefs and dreams."

"People want to narrow us down with words, thoughts, evaluations and beliefs. Do all the things that make you feel good about yourself that excite your mind."

"Young people get more from sharing ideas than giving them pep talks." Sharing ideas, talking with versus talking to, has potential to be life changing. Pep talks are a quick fix with little or no staying powers."

Our lives count only if family, friends and people in need come first."

"What we do for people in need (especially youth and needy) means more than anything else in life."

"Enjoy life by connecting with others and giving back."

Do all this and all things fall in to place. You help others become what you believe they can be. People who train and work @ our Minnesota Hockey Camps have been well schooled on the value of an athlete having the capacity to do 180 degree turns, reprogramming, adjusting and staying on course. Some have been sitting in our class listening to the Template for Success for a lot of years, some for one summer.."

Pushing yourself in a competitive setting prepares you for every situation in life."

I believe young people have the capability and mindset to find a solution in any situation. Most are only @ the goalmouth of boldly expressing their skills with an attitude and a swagger. This will evolve providing they have a strong desire to compete.

MHC creates exposure and awareness; giving you the knowledge to understand yourself; see your blind spots. Until that happens, you are treading water in your development.

Young people today have more intuitive minds and a good chance of being more street smart: years ahead of me @ the same age. The reason being; there is so much more information for them to soak up if they remain curious about the game and life.

Love plays a huge role; there are two winners or no winners. Tell them that. -Ole Gringo-
