5 ways to be a stronger basketball leader
Whether you are the point guard, team captain, or coach, your leadership is important. Here are five ways to be the best leader you can be on and off the basketball court.
1. Eliminate fear. Fear is a robber and a thief which steals your imagination and ability to problem solve. When you live in fear, you make choices that actually unconsciously germinate and bring to fruition what you are afraid of. You literally are dreaming fear into reality.
2. Operate in peace. This is a core principle for us at NBC Camps. We want to make decisions from a place of gratitude, abundance and joy. This mindset is a conscious choice and in many cases we may choose to postpone making a tough decision until we have a mindset of peace.
3. Cultivate wonder. Imagination, creativity and new perspectives emerge from a sense of awe. Overly rigid or “efficiency at all costs” mindset limit wonder. Conversely, the other extreme of pampered, constantly entertained lifestyle destroys wonder. Step out of the intensified disciplined regiment or the over-stimulated gluttony and spend time in awe, silence, gratitude and thankfulness.
4. Think like a great musician. Great musicians model the perfect balance between dreaming and achieving. The dream is the incubation of the skills, unique perspective, talent and discipline of the artist. In this mysterious crucible, genius is born.
5. Write down your dreams. Research on this is astonishing. Don’t talk about your dreams or tell everyone what you will do—research shows this actually causes you to not follow through. Instead, in private, write down your dreams and post them where you can see them every day. Spend time thinking and praying about these dreams.
