Under that helmet, there is a mind replete with thoughts and emotions. Behind that jersey is heart full of hopes and fears.

Build a legacy that lasts by using the 3D Framework.
Be The Best You Can Be
To care well for an athlete, we must coach in all 3Dimensions. We all know that there is more to an athlete than just the physical. Under that helmet, there is a mind replete with thoughts and emotions. Behind that jersey is heart full of hopes and fears. We ARE 3Dimensional beings, and all 3Dimensions are so intricately interwoven that one will affect the other two. If coaches will be just as deliberate about coaching the 2nd and 3rd Dimensions as they are the 1st Dimension, not only will the athlete perform better, but life transformation will occur and we can help athletes be the best they can be� on AND off the field.

Goals vs. Purpose
At the 3D Institute, we recognize and affirm that goals play an important role in the building of a successful program. That�s why we train coaches to understand the difference between Outcome Goals, Performance Goals, and Process Goals, and what role they each should play in our every day coaching. We also train coaches to understand that Goals are a 2nd Dimension issue. Purpose is a 3rd Dimension issue.

When a coach helps an athlete overcome the constant temptation to choose immediate gratification it is a very rewarding experience.
3DI Newsletter
Build a legacy that lasts by using the 3D Framework.
Motivation: The Essence of Coaching
In many ways, motivation is the essence of coaching. A coach�s job is to help athletes pursue and persist toward the pursuit of both short-term and long-term goals. Late Dallas Cowboys football coach Tom Landry summed up this part of the job very well when he said, �A coach is somebody who gets people to do what they DON�T want to do in order to obtain that which they DO want to obtain."

One of Vince Lombardi's most famous quotes is, "show me a good loser and I will show you a loser."
The Second Parent
One of Vince Lombardi's most famous quotes is, "show me a good loser and I will show you a loser." Unfortunately, his most famous quotes like, "winning isn't everything, it's the only thing" were edited. Most are unfamiliar with the second half of his loser quote that reads, "But show me a gracious loser and I'll show you someone who will always be a winner." That addition drastically changes the meaning of what he was trying to say.

We demand our athletes get out of their comfort zone, but sometimes we are unable to do it ourselves.
Short Sighted Vision
For years I used winning to define my success as a coach. The legendary Dean Smith was right when he said, "If you make winning games a life or death proposition, you're going to have problems. For one thing you'll be dead a lot." It put me on a roller coaster of emotional highs and lows that sucked the life out me. It was unsustainable, as the winning could never quite outweigh the burden of losing. -Read More-

The good news is there''s a golden opportunity hidden within every adversity.
Jon,
First, some encouragement...
All of a sudden we''ve been thrust into a sea of adversity that''s clouded by uncertainty. COVID-19 is changing the world. It will be interesting to see how the sports world changes as a result of this crisis. Hopefully, it will be a healthy change as we all reflect and refocus on what matters most.
Sometimes, it takes events like this to help us pause and examine where we are. This is good news, as there''s a golden opportunity hidden within every adversity. As a leader, I encourage you to take full advantage of this opportunitytolearn and grow. For every coach who uses this time to get better, the sports culture will be that much better once things return to normal. In so many ways, coaches really are in the driver''s seat.
At the 3D Institute, we have resources to help. Many coaches are using this downtime to complete their 3D Coaching online coursework. It''s a great opportunity to increase your leadership capacity to lead in times like these.
If you started a while ago, but the busyness of life has gotten in the way of finishing... now is your time to log back in and finish your coursework. Or, if you''ve never taken one of our various 3D courses, now''s a good time to start!

As always, thanks for what you do. In times like these, our communities need leaders like you to be more than just an "X''s" and "O''s" coach.

It is painful to admit that I made a very regrettable decision regarding a young man, who I considered to be out of shape.
Research and Development
Through the grapevine, where many perceptions flourish, I was recently told that some of my articles were hypocritical. The critic, who had coached against me decades ago, said my philosophies didn't resemble in any way shape or form what he had observed. Throughout my long and winding coaching journey I have changed quite dramatically from where I began. Growth as a coach is essential and I won't run away from my unsavory past behaviors because they have been crucial in my development into transformational coach.
As a first dimension coach in my younger days I, like most everyone in that time, focused almost exclusively on developing physical skills. It is still where most of us put the majority of our time and effort. We identify player's strengths and weaknesses and then assign them seats on the hypothetical bus. Each seat comes with a specific defined role on the team. When the bus is crowded, not everyone will be happy with their seat. Scottie Pippen of the Chicago Bulls said, "Sometimes a player's greatest challenge is coming to grips with his role on the team."
My initial criterion for assigning roles was based almost solely on physical skills and characteristics. It is painful to admit that I made a very regrettable decision regarding a young man, who I considered to be out of shape. When he couldn't meet my first dimension standards and I felt he couldn't help us win games, I made it so miserable for him...

Understanding is the Basis of Care
A win-at-all-costs sports culture is the result of an unhealthy obsession with the bottom-line objectives of the 1st Dimension. However, the answer is NOT to quit pursuing excellence at coaching the 1st Dimension. That is still a very important part of our job as a coach! Rather, the answer is to begin intentionally engaging the hearts and minds of our athletes. To do this effectively, it will require some new understanding. Understanding is the basis of care.

As coaches we are stepping into their lives at younger and younger ages and replacing their free play time with structured games.
A Poor Definition of Fun
Daydreaming at a stop light last fall I noticed an elementary after-school football practice on the field next to me. No helmets, no pads, just a dozen or so kids standing around as a couple of adults demonstrated what appeared to be the proper technique for a hand-off.
It didn't appear that anybody was having fun.
That is when it hit me. We have convinced ourselves that teaching and coaching these eight-year-olds the finer points of the game is fun for them. We may have also convinced the kids that this is the way sports are intended to be, boring, with lots of standing around listening to coach's talk. If you haven't stood before a group of nine-year-olds lately and tried to get them to listen, you don't have a clue what I am talking about. We throw terms and concepts at them that they are ill-prepared to grasp. Many at this age are still mastering reading an analog clock. A fake 32 blast with a backside George reverse is equally confusing.
Sitting and listening to someone talk is quickly becoming a lost skill for our children. When they have a video screen in front of them they are engaged. When the power of technology isn't available to them the gene inside of them that wants to run and play still exists. The problem with "coached-up" sports as opposed to play is coaches spend too much time lecturing and teaching and in turn the kids get less time playing. As coaches we are stepping into their lives at younger and younger ages and replacing their free play time with structured games.

I was speaking with a varsity basketball coach recently as we were watching his players shoot around before a practice began.
Strength in Diversity
The diversity of the group is the strength of the group.
I was speaking with a varsity basketball coach recently as we were watching his players shoot around before a practice began. It was a very prototype pre-practice shoot around. Players were laughing with each other. Some of the players were playing 1-on-1. A few were working on their jump shots alone. A shooting contest was taking place on 1 basket. There was a lot of good-natured trash talk taking place in every corner of the gym. It was everything that's great about being in a gym with your team.
The coach and I were discussing a lot of the players that were out on the floor. It seemed that each player we discussed was very different from the previous player we had spoken about. They were different skin colors, different family backgrounds, different skill sets, different heights, different academic performances, and different levels of love for the game of basketball. The wide spectrum of differences struck me, and I asked the coach the following question (*before you read the question, note that the coach who answered has coached high school basketball for nearly 40 years, won almost 700 games, and has claimed three state championships.) 'Coach, in your experience would you say the teams that had the best chemistry were the teams that had the most diverse roster?' The coach didn't even have to think about. His immediate response was 'absolutely'.

Have you ever wondered why today's kid seems to be more anxious, more depressed, and less resilient than those of previous generations?

Helicopters
Have you ever wondered why today's adolescent seems to be more anxious, more depressed, and less resilient than those of previous generations? As this article suggests, it likely has a lot to do with how we as adults structure our kids' lives.
In his 1969 book Parents & Teenagers, Dr. Haim Ginott first coined the now famous phrase "helicopter parent." Helicopter parents are those who try to hover over every interaction and activity that their children are engaged in. Research continues to make a compelling case that the helicopter approach to governing our kids' lives, doesn't seem to be working out so well for the kids!

Wes Simmons of the 3D Institute shares some perspective about the unintended consequences of "helicopter" parenting and the effect it is having on our children.

When it comes to winning that elusive (for all but one team) championship, there can be no missing element in the team chemistry formula.
The Missing Link
Winning a championship. It is the athletic world's version of survival of the fittest as each step toward the elusive hardware exposes both weaknesses and strengths of the competitors. The margin of victory is often as imperceptible as a razor's edge.
It is a journey of attrition, and from the masses of suitors for the championship crown, only a handful of true contenders will emerge with the right stuff to put them in position to win it all. After years of preparation as individuals, and months as a team, each challenger will face the pressure of a long season and the finality of a season-ending loss if they are not good enough. The devastation of coming up short intensifies with each step closer toward that final game.

If you want people to remember what you say, don't merely explain the facts and figures. We are not wired to remember details, but we do remember stories.

Frustrated Coaches
Not long ago, a top level women's basketball coach left the coaching profession out of sheer frustration. On her way out she told us why: "Kids are not as coachable as they were years ago," she told the Associated Press. "I see kids sometimes talking back to their coaches and it's like a way of life. It's not necessarily what I signed up for and I'm not going to adjust my coaching to the way kids are these days."
This coach's "my way or the highway" approach led her to take the highway.

The athletic experience is in my estimation unparalleled in its value and the extent of its impact.
From Grit to Greatness
The athletic experience is in my estimation unparalleled in its value and the extent of its impact. John Wooden's legendary pyramid is perhaps the best example of the scope and significance of the character that can be developed. I will debate anyone on the merits of athletics under the guise of a well-trained coach. I often show my parents his pyramid and ask them, is there any trait listed that you don't want your kids to possess? I have always considered their silence as agreement.

Students will oftentimes spend more meaningful time with their coaches or club sponsors than any other adult in their adolescent life.
The Second Parent
There is something about our transition from childhood to adolescence that changes our parents from "heroes" to "villains." Not smart villains, but insanely annoying villains who don't know what they're talking about. At times, adolescents wonder how these "villains" ever even got into power! According to psychologist Erik Erickson, this is a normal phase of human development called the "Identity vs. Confusion" stage.

Here are a few suggestions to make 'getting into the stream' one of your most valuable and maybe most enjoyable leadership activities.
Get In The Stream
This week''s blog by Dr. Chris Hobbs is called "Get Into The Stream." Here is an excerpt:
If your intention is to nit-pick on things you do not like or find things that people need to be held accountable for then stay in the office. No one wants to interact with a micromanager. However, if your mentality is to encourage, listen, and ultimately serve your coaches then go get into the stream. I have found that I plant a lot of seeds with the people that I'm responsible to lead through these types of interactions and it also helps me to know what to prioritize when I get back my office. I can see and influence the culture of my department when I am standing 'in the middle of the stream'. Athletic Directors should be intrigued by ways to have 3D influence on their coaches if they expect their coaches to have a 3D influence on their student-athletes. Here are a few suggestions to make 'getting into the stream' one of your most valuable and maybe most enjoyable leadership activities. These suggestions may help you develop a practical plan for nurturing a '3D culture'.

We demand our athletes get out of their comfort zone, but sometimes we are unable to do it ourselves.
Uncharted Waters
As coaches we are the captains of our ships, but know all too well it is the competence of our crews that will determine our success. The traditional coaching model that I experienced as a player was founded on hard, strict and unforgiving introduction. Coaches set the demanding tone early with the idea you can always back-off the throttle later. Virtually every coach I played for or worked under has followed that formula. We dive into the 1st Dimension hard, we push, we demand, we physically challenge our team. Making demands of players we don't yet know is almost always accomplished through fear. It has indeed proven to be effective, but is always dancing on the line between striving to win and doing whatever it takes to win. Some coaches never leave that phase of player development. It is how they were coached and where they are most comfortable. We demand our athletes get out of their comfort zone, but sometimes we are unable to do it ourselves. -Read More-

When it comes to winning that elusive (for all but one team) championship, there can be no missing element in the team chemistry formula.
The Missing Link
Winning a championship. It is the athletic world's version of survival of the fittest as each step toward the elusive hardware exposes both weaknesses and strengths of the competitors. The margin of victory is often as imperceptible as a razor's edge.
It is a journey of attrition, and from the masses of suitors for the championship crown, only a handful of true contenders will emerge with the right stuff to put them in position to win it all. After years of preparation as individuals, and months as a team, each challenger will face the pressure of a long season and the finality of a season-ending loss if they are not good enough. The devastation of coming up short intensifies with each step closer toward that final game.

When Your Best Isn't Good Enough
I am a big believer in the lessons athletics teaches every day. My players have heard many tales of how what they are experiencing will benefit them later in life. Now that one of those life lessons had kicked down my front door, it was now time for the coach to walk the talk.

As coaches we are stepping into their lives at younger and younger ages and replacing their free play time with structured games.
A Poor Definition of Fun
Daydreaming at a stop light last fall I noticed an elementary after-school football practice on the field next to me. No helmets, no pads, just a dozen or so kids standing around as a couple of adults demonstrated what appeared to be the proper technique for a hand-off.
It didn't appear that anybody was having fun.
That is when it hit me. We have convinced ourselves that teaching and coaching these eight-year-olds the finer points of the game is fun for them. We may have also convinced the kids that this is the way sports are intended to be, boring, with lots of standing around listening to coach's talk. If you haven't stood before a group of nine-year-olds lately and tried to get them to listen, you don't have a clue what I am talking about. We throw terms and concepts at them that they are ill-prepared to grasp. Many at this age are still mastering reading an analog clock. A fake 32 blast with a backside George reverse is equally confusing.
Sitting and listening to someone talk is quickly becoming a lost skill for our children. When they have a video screen in front of them they are engaged. When the power of technology isn't available to them the gene inside of them that wants to run and play still exists. The problem with "coached-up" sports as opposed to play is coaches spend too much time lecturing and teaching and in turn the kids get less time playing. As coaches we are stepping into their lives at younger and younger ages and replacing their free play time with structured games.

Like Spiderman and his Marvel Universe colleagues, power can be used for good or evil. The sports universe doesn't automatically...
Spiderman''s Creed
With great power comes great responsibility. Most of us heard that for the first time when Uncle Ben lectured Peter Parker in the front seat of his car. Others cite Voltaire or Winston Churchill who said: The price of greatness is responsibility. As a blossoming Spiderman, Peter was just beginning to realize the power within him and the responsibility that would come with it.
I was a wet behind the ears freshman baseball coach when a player came up to me and told me he had a sore arm. Sarcastically, I replied that he probably tore his rotator cuff, chuckled and walked away. When the same young man missed practice the next day, I asked where he was. His teammates informed he was at the doctor because he thought he tore his rotator cuff. It was then that I got my first glimpse of the power my words had as a coach.

Back to the Dinner Table
The dinner table was once upon a time the unquestioned gathering place for families. As a kid it was an unwelcomed, yet required, interruption to the most important part of my day-play time. Hearing your name cascade across the neighborhood airwaves, followed by "time for dinner" was as demoralizing as the final horn in a game you trailed by one point. We just needed five more minutes!

The Second Parent
One of Vince Lombardi's most famous quotes is, "show me a good loser and I will show you a loser." Unfortunately, his most famous quotes like, "winning isn't everything, it's the only thing" were edited. Most are unfamiliar with the second half of his loser quote that reads, "But show me a gracious loser and I'll show you someone who will always be a winner." That addition drastically changes the meaning of what he was trying to say.

MLK's dream was for a day when people would be judged by the content of their character, not by the content of a caricature.
Keep the Dream Alive
Last week we released a blog entitled Never Stop Chasing. The focus was to inspire coaches to never quit chasing their dreams. Coach Bauer made a compelling case that pursuing the right kind of dreams is essential to our character formation. The pursuit itself is very formative in our lives to become the right kind of people in the process.
In light of current events it's hard to talk about "chasing dreams" without thinking of a very specific "dream" that we all need to be pursuing together. It's the dream that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. laid out for America on August 28, 1963.

Be The Best You Can Be
To care well for an athlete, we must coach in all 3Dimensions. We all know that there is more to an athlete than just the physical. Under that helmet, there is a mind replete with thoughts and emotions. Behind that jersey is heart full of hopes and fears. We ARE 3Dimensional beings, and all 3Dimensions are so intricately interwoven that one will affect the other two. If coaches will be just as deliberate about coaching the 2nd and 3rd Dimensions as they are the 1st Dimension, not only will the athlete perform better, but life transformation will occur and we can help athletes be the best they can be. on AND off the field.

Non-cognitive skills have been shown through research to be excellent predictors of numerous successful life outcomes
Using the 3D Framework to Teach Non-Cognitive Skills
Interscholastic athletics and other extracurricular activities serve as the best environment to teach non-cognitive skills. New research in psychology, education, and behavioral economics is highlighting that while cognitive ability is important, non-cognitive skills are equally (if not more) important to success in school and life. Non-cognitive skills include "success characteristics" like growth mindset, grit, hope, self-control, conscientiousness, and resiliency.
Non-cognitive skills have been shown through research to be excellent predictors of numerous successful life outcomes such as academic achievement, workplace performance, and leadership effectiveness. It is in this space that playing sports can provide a great value to the educational process.

Athletes Who Play With Heart
We all know there is more to a great athlete than just great physical ability. We all know there is more to a great team than just a collection of physically skilled athletes.

We all want athletes who "play with heart," right? In the 21st century, a key to great leadership is a strategy to capture hearts. So, what is your STRATEGY?

The bottom line is this. If we never take any risks, we will never achieve our dreams.
Take More Risks
I believe humans are born with an instinctive desire in their hearts to do something good with their lives. They are also born with the mental capacity to cultivate that desire into a dream or vision through the power of imagination. We all have a dream buried somewhere deep in our hearts. Remember?
What are you going to do with YOUR dream?
Will you muster the courage to take a risk and go for it?
Or, will you keep the dream buried in your heart until you get buried with it?

Late Dallas Cowboys football coach Tom Landry summed up this part of the job very well when he said, "A coach is somebody who gets people to do what they DON'T want to do in order to obtain that which they DO want to obtain."
When a coach helps an athlete overcome the constant temptation to choose immediate gratification and instead opt for staying committed to the long-term process, it is a very rewarding experience. But.
