This is from Dena Evans who runs the famous Point Guard College. She has her 6 Intangibles to Master That Makes You Invaluable:
1.) SPIRIT
*Good teams practice with enthusiasm and zest...a quiet gym is a losing gym...Enthusiasm = Excellence...demand energy.
2.) COMMUNICATION
*Talk on the floor, call names, give them reminders often.
3.) HUSTLE
*All the time -- not a sometime thing..."sheepdog mentality"...persistent, enthused, work, everyday.
4.) ATTITUDE
*Body language is important.
5.) PRECISION
*Exactness...attention to detail...accuracy...sharpness of approach.
6.) ENHANCEMENT
*Contribute to the environment -- don't contaminate it...make it better doing something extra...expect to do more that your expected to...do extra...come earlier, stay later, compliment someone, smile, push a broom, pick up trash...and don't expect praise for doing something extra.One of Dena's favorite quotes: "Championships are won with high levels of energy, spirit, and enthusiasm."
