How do you get an athlete to the next level? Not just Games athletes, how do you get anyone to be better. Yes, seeing and correcting and proper programming are essential – but what else? How can we make sure we aren’t missing something? Hope you can join me in Austin for a half day seminar to discuss “High Level Coaching” on Sunday December 8, from 9-noon. There is no hands-on coaching in this seminar, so coaches of all levels are welcome. For more info check out BenBergeron.com

When we watch those at the top of their game perform on game day, it’s easier to say they are “talented” than it is to acknowledge that they have spent thousands and thousands of hours beating on their craft, lungs burning, exhausted, all when no one is watching. The bright lights don’t make you shine—they only reveal the work you did in the dark. – #brickbybrick #earned @comptrain.co
