Here is what the coach for Loyola, Jimmy Patsos, had to say after the game about the strategy that cost him the game,
"Anybody else ever hold him scoreless?" Patsos said. "I'm a history major. They're going to remember that we held him scoreless or we lost by 30?"
As a history major he should be reminded that history helps us to remember winners not losers. Patsos strategy was to keep the leading scorer without a point knowing that the strategy would most definitely cost his team the game. Stupid Strategy. Do you think the 3 Loyola players that gave up 78 points were excited each time a player other than Curry scored? Were they frustrated that they were down by 30 or were they watching the clock with anticipation that they were about to keep the leading scorer without a point?
Whatever career you are in, defining the win is crucial to your ability to gauge success. Take the time this week to evaluate what a win would be for you. Maybe you have been focusing on the wrong things and it's causing you and your team to be frustrated.
If you own a restaurant make food that people will crave and tell their friends about.
If you are a Christian live your life like you know the Jesus you want others to accept.
If you are a model....I have know idea what you need to do.
It's not too late change your coaching strategy.
Thought this would be a good post to start the week. If you are in ministry a great read on this subject would be Andy Stanley's book, "Seven Practices of Effective Ministry".
Now go win your week!
