Slippery Stone Pep Talk
Setting the Table for Slippery Stone
This may feel a bit morbid but the reality is we have a greater appreciation and higher level of intentionality in the present when we have the end in mind.
Leaders want to live with an understanding that today matters and the present is a gift. This season, this team, this moment won’t last forever and when we recognize that reality, we live greater in the moment.
The Slippery Stone exercise will encourage your players to live each day to the fullest. It’ll provide them a perspective allowing them to give all they have to each other and to the moment. No wasted days. No meaningless moments.
Leaders know every day counts and want to win every day.
"“As we went through the season, the Slippery Stone exercise gave me a new perspective and appreciation for the season. It made me cherish my senior season that much greater.”"
