A collection of talented individuals without personal discipline will ultimately and inevitably fail. Attach the players personal meaning to a higher purpose. It is the identity of the team that matters who they are, what they stand for, and why they exist. Always look for ways to do things better. Have a growth mindset. Seek new approaches by challenging the current way of doing something. Kerr, James. Legacy: What the All Blacks Can Teach Us about the Business of Life
