hey what's up everyone morey croson here and today we're going to be talking about what i
wish i learned earlier we're going to hop right into the video here you know big thing that i want
you guys to understand is you know i work with a lot of different athletes different schools within
you know my little la area um so i'm a lot around a lot of kids and obviously with all the online
stuff and the youtube and and being able to interact with a lot of different athletes and
you know one of the big things that i'm starting to realize and a big takeaway that i think i have
for you guys that you could start to implement really start to take note of within your own kind
of thought process is competition right and what i mean with competition is how you're able to really
compete with yourself so when i was your guys's age and when i find what a lot of your guys's age
um you know mentality right 15 16 even 12 13. it's a lot about the what's going on on the outside
right i'm doing really good compared to this guy or you know this other quarterback here at these
camps or you know whatever the case may be it's a lot about and i get it because at this point
you're starting to kind of figure out more about you starting to compare yourself a little bit
more to you know some of your peers to be able to see where you stand in in a wide variety of
different things you know socially athletically strength all types of parts right confidence
you know smartness you know who's smarter gets better grades and so what you want to be able to
start to do as fast as you can is really start to take all that information and really utilize
it to be able to help you in being able to get the most out of each day right and so instead of being
too focused on how good or not good another guy is doing right like one of the examples i hear a lot
is like oh yeah i went to this camp and this other quarterback he didn't impress me or he didn't do
that good you know and um you know meanwhile i'm not getting any offers not getting any looks and
it's like you know you want to not be too focused on what other quarterbacks are doing or what other
you know athletes in general are doing really focus on how well you could do within the camp
how much you can get out of a workout right again a lot of times i go to these workouts and
it's like the kids that think that they're the best kids right or are the best kids
don't always work as hard right and because they are already faster already stronger right and it's
like man you're really doing yourself a disservice so the people that i want to be watching this that
hope are watching this are people that are you know high level performers or working themselves
up to be high level performers and you know really get trying to connect with the mental side of what
it is it's going to take you to be able to get to the next level has to go into how you take
your competition with yourself right pete carroll talks about this uh john wooden talks about this
uh nick saban talks about right it all ends up being how well are you able to really
get a system within your own development to make it so you know you learn you read you know you uh
work out you study you eat well you rest correctly you get the right amounts of liquids inside your
body hydrate yourself well and make it so that's something you could do day in and day out and
really making that a habit and you know that will set you up to be able to succeed in whatever it
is that you're trying to do whether it be you know football sprinting um baseball basketball
whatever right anything that has to do with business what you know
school so really watch this and and utilize it i hope that there's like a parent or something
that's watching this i can share with our kid or you know if you have like a friend or anything
like that you can send it to you know do it right because i really want this to be able to help you
and understanding that getting the most out of your day is really all you can control right you
can't control how other people are doing or what offers you get or who's interested in you based
off of what accomplishments you've achieved so the only thing you can control is what it is that
you do every day to be able to help yourself get to the next level whatever it may be and utilize
that to help you move forward in your overall development and it'll really make a big difference
in the long term so thanks for watching click the thumbs up subscribe and we'll talk to you soon
