Locker Room Wisdom #3

Departing Stanford Football Coach, Jim Harbaugh:

“You’re either better or worse than you were yesterday- you never stay the same.”

Now printed on a giant red and white banner wrapped around the fences of Elliot practice field, Stanford Campus.

Five years ago they lost 11 and won 1. This year they flipped that. I wonder what you learn more from?

This saying  is opposite of how we usually think isn’t it? We wake up, okay, i’m about the same guy I was yesterday. Am I? I bet I’ve made about 347 tuna melts in my life- what If every one got just a little bit better? They’d be so good by now they’d change your life. I’d relate this directly to my actual job, but i’m afraid I might not like what I see there.  Maybe tomorrow.
