A coach's job is telling people what they need to hear, not what they want to hear. The speaker bets on a world-class coach with mediocre players over superstars with a poor coach, and argues that real success demands relentless effort, not comfort.
What are you supposed to do? And the answer is that you sleep less. You sleep less. That's what you do. Teach high school kids, college kids, both pull an all-nighter, sleep less and get it done. Don't you ever get a full night's sleep until it's done. And in closing, I wanna wrap up with this story. If you had to place a bet and the wager was high, it's every dime you'll ever make again for the rest of your life. This is the only— and you had to place a bet 'cause of a gun you had. This is the only information you were ever given on who to bet on. One team, world's greatest coach and a bunch of below-average players, talented players. Other team, below-average coach and super talented players. I don't know about you, but every day of the week and twice on Sunday, I'm putting all my chips on the team with the world's greatest coach. You are coaches. Okay, Art Williams called you coaches. Coaches coach people to success. Coaches tell people what they need to hear, not what they want to hear, and way more interested in long-term peace than short-term peace.
