“Hey, I don't have to be what the world says I am,
all this self-doubt, all this negative talk,
I can be, I can live in this NBA Champion coach that I know who I am going to be,”
and now it's about embracing the process of taking what I call 1% steps.
And this makes it not as daunting.
1% steps, anybody can do that daily.
Making a pivot, It's a basketball term where
the defence is all over you or life is just sucking you in and you can't see a clear path,
but you make a small, slight turn, a small pivot
and it opens up an entirely new perspective.
And it's, you know change is very daunting for people when you say,
“hey you have to make this big change,”
no one, rarely can anyone do it.
But if it's a small, these pivots, these 1% step pivots,
that's what can open up an entirely different perspective and right now
we're all going through a time that we feel stuck.
In some situation, we feel stuck.
And that's one of the worst feelings we can have.
Me and you, we know that we had to make our life pivot through sports
and we poured everything we could into playing professional sports, myself the NBA
and we had to make that pivot. Like everything that I did to pour into playing in the NBA
was actually for coaching in the NBA.
So it's, it's about looking at something from a slightly different perspective
that can change your entire perspective.
My uncle Nick, cause he's a great example of this.
Now, people see him as winning this NBA Championship and they're like,
“oh, first-year head coach, lightning strikes in a bottle...”
No! He's been a head coach for 27 years.
And one of my favourite quotes is that it takes 10 years to become an overnight success
but in Nick's terms, 27 years to become an overnight success.
And I've seen him coaching over in countries you don't even know play basketball,
taking players' ankles, popping popcorn at halftime.
But the thing is he lived in that,
“hey I am an NBA Champion head coach” and when he was 22, when he started his coaching career,
he put a picture of himself holding an NBA trophy on the fridge and he saw that,
every day he lived in that mindset and developed that subconscious awareness of,
“hey, I don't have to be what the world says I am,
all this self-doubt, all this negative talk,
I can be, I can live in this NBA Champion coach that I know who I am going to be,”
and now it's about embracing the process of taking what I call 1% steps.
And this makes it not as daunting.
1% steps, anybody can do that daily.
It's not, you have to take the whole,
you look at the big macros and then you take the little micros.
Knowing that these steps, and the most powerful thing there is,
is the compounding effect where you stack these 1% days on 1% days,
understanding it's going to take 27 years to become an overnight success,
but if you stay with it, you will get there.
We all grow up learning that certain words mean certain things,
and we attach them like with “failure,” or “success,” or “rich,”
we all think they mean certain things that we're taught, but not necessarily.
Let's take, for example, the NBA as we've been talking about basketball.
So every time I work with a player, I'll ask him, “when was your last shooting slump?”
And then I'll see them already, their body language goes down and they're like,
“a couple of games ago, I couldn't make a shot and I missed every one of them...”
And then I'll ask them, “hey, when was your last shooting hippopotamus?”
And they'll look at me like, “David what are you talking about? You're crazy! What?”
But what I'm doing there is showing them it's just the power in the word.
They have already thought that this word “slump” means something bad, but it's only if you decide that,
you have the power to be able to change that, just like “failure.”
Like most people will say, “hey failure's bad!” They're scared of failure,
some will even say failure's a way to learn and grow, yeah I agree with that.
I think failure's the only way to learn and grow.
