Coaches

Coaches can have a profound effect on an individual. I know in my case I have been lucky enough to have some incredible coaches; in Hockey, in Business and now in Kung Fu.  A coach can set the tone for an individual or a team and that team or individual can achieve more that was thought possible by themselves or other people looking on.

A coach can make you believe that you can achieve the extraordinary. A coach can throw out a few words and it can change how you perceive what you are doing and go and achieve more.  Coaches can help you break down the mental limits you have in your head and make it seem like there are no limits.  We all know there are no limits but we still limit ourselves when we know it is wrong. 

One Coach I have admired is Herb Brooks.  He was a master of words and just seemed to know how to say the right thing at the right time.  Many of his sayings are not for mixed company, but this is one of my most favorite of his quotes.  I think it is very appropriate for what we are trying to achieve as the Sheep Team.
