What is your seed?

This is a huge week for college basketball fans.  The teams have been announced, the play in games have been set, now it is time to dance.  What can we learn from it?

1.  Teams prepare, practice, and play hard to reach their goal of playing in the big tournament.

The first question you should ask yourself is what is your goal.   Second, are you preparing, practicing, and playing hard to reach that goal?  I realize that life is a little more complicated than college basketball.   At the same time, you only get one shot at this thing called life, should you not maximize this opportunity by having a goal?

2.  Teams are constantly reviewing game tapes to prepare for their opponents and to improve their own performance.

What are you doing to improve your performance?  Are you getting feedback on your life, so you can strive to getter better?
Getting feedback from a trusted source is key to knowing what to do to get better.


3.  Simply put, the teams have to play the games to win the tournament.

Have you heard the old saying, "The majority of life is just showing up!"?  Life is a participation sport.  Are you living life to the fullest or are you too worried about losing to win.  You have to make things happen, take your shots in life and if you miss, go get the rebound and try again.

Life is more complicated than a basketball tournament.  But there are a number of principles of a winning team that transfers to life.  Every day is your big dance, play it to win.

Have a great week, I will see you later.

Thanks for the post, i have come to understand (like many others) that the fastest and easiest way to waste time and the opportunity that daily come our way, is by not setting out with a plan. Success is always intentional.
