Most Coaches in the NFL are masters of Halftime Adjustments. They will analyze what has been happening to their team for the last 2 quarters and make small adjustments. Halftime is only 20 minutes long so they only have opportunity to make really small adjustments.
The best coaches are the ones who make the correct adjustments and keep it simple enough for their team to apply in the second half.
Some coaches are better at this than others and if you watch football I bet you could tell me who they are!
You are the Coach of your life…What type of Coach are you?
Understanding the POWER of making simple and small adjustments for your life will give you the best opportunity to succeed.
I would bet that there are areas of your life that you are frustrated with. Take a look at the major parts of your life and make an honest assessment of each: Spiritual, Relational, Emotional, Physical and Financial.
How are you and your teams playing in each of these areas? Are you hoping that something will change or get better in one or two of them? Do you complain about any of them? Are any of them causing you frustration or disappointment?
You have 3 choices:
- Do nothing and continue to complain and be frustrated with what you have. This is the choice most people will make because we are either too afraid to change or we believe our problems are someone else’s fault! This is a TERRIBLE choice.
- Make big and bold changes. This looks good on paper but RARLEY does it work out. The end result of this choice is OVERWHELMED! You will start off with lots of energy and excitement but that will soon turn to disappointment and depression!
- Make a SMALL Adjustment. Start with something simple that you can accomplish. This will build motivation and confidence! Do NOT despise small beginnings for in them is the POWER of CHANGE!
What type of a coach will you be for your life? Will you make a simple and small adjustment today to an area of your life that needs change?
