Been thinking a lot about this press conference statement by Jason Kelce of the Philadelphia Eagles:
“If you’re fixing free throws, if you’re getting better as a player, none of this is happening. So everybody can bitch and complain about how tough this city is to play in. Just play better, man. This city will love you.” ESPN
Just play better, man.
A friend and I have a mantra we share, very simply, “just be cool.”
My mind is heading towards “just be better each day.”
I’m not talking about some quantifiable metric, some hustle, some “get 1% smarter everyday” grind. Better goes great with sports, or sales, but in life it’s different.
Just appreciate, be grateful, be present, be mindful. I know, magical hippy dippy new age bullshit, but whatever, I have to live inside this brain for the rest of my life, so I’m going to use what I use.
Just be better. Just experience better? Just be?
