Do you realize just how much work it is going to take? They will always nod  yes. Then ask,  And your willing to commit everything to attain this dream? They will respond in the affirmative. You then must respond with emotion,  I will do everything I can to help each of you. We will do this great thing together. <br><br>STEP #2: WHEN TO DO IT<br><br>Many coaches wait until the season starts to come up with team goals. That is too late. A football team needs to do the how part in December or January. A basketball or wrestling team needs to this in April. Why? To give the team as long as possible to prepare. Establish what you want to accomplish as soon after the sport season as possible.<br><br>STEP #3: WHAT TO DO<br><br>Ask the team,  What kind of work ethic should we have? On a scale of one to ten, what should we be willing to give? Most of the time you will hear ten. If no one says  eleven, ask,  Does anyone have another idea. Then wait. Almost always someone will say,  eleven. Then respond by saying,  That is a good idea. <br><br>You now have constructed an amazingly powerful situation. You have a united goal that came from your athletes. You have eight or so months to prepare and you are going to prepare everyday at an eleven rate. <br><br>ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES<br><br>There will be mistakes and problems with athletes during this eight-month period. There are definite rules on how to handle these situations with the most powerful motivational tool that has been presented. It is critical to remain focused on the goal while remaining positive.<br>HANDLING MISTAKES: When an athlete makes a mistake or does not fulfill his/her commitment to being an eleven, you cannot say,  Listen, you little twink. You better shape up or else. I m sick and tired of you screwing up. Don t react to a situation--Act. Act with a preplanned strategy. For example, my favorite to acknowledge an error in judgement is to say,  I thought you said that you wanted to be an eleven? Then pause.  What would an eleven do? Pause.  We need you with us. Can I count on you from now on? <br><br>This strategy corrects the situation with a positive resolve with the athlete to do better. Normally, athletes react with a lot of self guilt. No need to rub it in. Always leave the encounter showing that you care. A firm handshake and a smile is an eleven way to do it. <br><br>HANDLING CONTINUAL PROBLEMS: This can be a team decision made at the same time as the goal. Just ask the team,  What if someone just won t be an eleven and is constantly making bad decisions. What if someone just doesn t care to give what it takes? As they are thinking about these questions, then ask,  Do you want me to handle them or do you want to try to handle them first? Usually, they will want to handle them. This strategy can develop strong leadership and even greater commitment.<br><br>I would recommend you have captains or senior leaders. Communicate on a regular basis. Ask,  How are we doing? Do you need any help? Always relate the positive things you see going on. <br><br>USE EXTRINSIC MOTIVATION: This will enhance and fortify the goal and the three steps. Always gi
