RECAP

We covered, in your 30-Day Playbook, Days 8, 9, 10, 11 and the exercises on “The Second Tier” of the Pyramid of Success.

Day 8 – Self-Control- Practices self-discipline and keep emotions under control. Good judgment and common sense are essential.

Day 9 – Alertness – Be observing constantly. Stay open-minded. Be eager to learn and improve.

Day 10 – Initiative – Cultivate the ability to make decisions and think alone. Do not be afraid of failure but learn from it.

Day 11 – Intentness – Set a realistic goal. Concentrate on its achievement by resisting all temptations and being determined and persistent.

This is a six-minute video from Coach Wooden. I think if you listen to him a few times over the course of the year you will continue to pick up new things (at least that’s my experience from listening to him). Enjoy.

Also – we mentioned the Industriousness and Enthusiasm from a post-game interview of #80 Charlie Becker – it does seem that Indiana has the right culture to win it all this year.

Be on the lookout for your homework as we tackle the next tier (The Heart).

Let’s go 2026
