2
00:00:08,360 –> 00:00:09,559
Randy Black: Bam son!

3
00:00:09,559 –> 00:00:16,360
Randy Black: This is Shoot It Straight, the podcast where life blessings don’t come sugar-coated and excuses get bitched.

4
00:00:16,360 –> 00:00:23,160
Coach Jim Clayton: I’m Randy Black, podcast guy, professional question ask, and apparently the only one here who doesn’t yell bam!

5
00:00:23,280 –> 00:00:24,480
Coach Jim Clayton: And son in public.

6
00:00:24,480 –> 00:00:26,400
Randy Black: Well, we’re working on that, Randy.

7
00:00:26,400 –> 00:00:35,360
Randy Black: I’m Jim Clayton, coach, mentor, motivator, and the guy who still thinks a whistle may be the best motivational tool known to man.

8
00:00:35,360 –> 00:00:38,080
Coach Jim Clayton: Each week, we’re taking what Jim’s learned from the course.

9
00:00:38,680 –> 00:00:43,640
Coach Jim Clayton: The drills, the discipline, the drive, and translating it into real-world success.

10
00:00:43,640 –> 00:00:44,200
Randy Black: That’s right.

11
00:00:44,200 –> 00:00:46,120
Randy Black: This ain’t just about basketball.

12
00:00:46,120 –> 00:00:49,240
Randy Black: It’s about showing up when life press is full court.

13
00:00:49,240 –> 00:00:52,200
Randy Black: It’s about pushing through when the clock’s ticking down.

14
00:00:52,280 –> 00:00:52,760
Coach Jim Clayton: If you’re looking for

15
00:00:53,840 –> 00:00:56,080
Coach Jim Clayton: Well, you might just want to ride the bench.

16
00:00:56,080 –> 00:01:00,240
Randy Black: We’re here to help you believe bigger, achieve louder, and motivate strong.

17
00:01:00,240 –> 00:01:03,680
Coach Jim Clayton: So buckle up and whatever you do, keep shooting it straight.

18
00:01:03,680 –> 00:01:04,880
Coach Jim Clayton: Bam, son

19
00:01:05,360 –> 00:01:07,119
Coach Jim Clayton: Welcome back to Shooting It Straight.

20
00:01:07,119 –> 00:01:10,320
Coach Jim Clayton: I’m Randy Black, joined by my co-host, Jim Clayton.

21
00:01:10,320 –> 00:01:13,920
Coach Jim Clayton: And we are in the Sports City U Studio in Hurricane, West Virginia.

22
00:01:13,920 –> 00:01:18,479
Coach Jim Clayton: And we are glad that you are here with us today as we continue our conversation

23
00:01:18,660 –> 00:01:26,740
Coach Jim Clayton: on one of the most powerful traits that a person can develop resilience in our last episode we kind of laid out the groundwork

24
00:01:26,760 –> 00:01:33,320
Coach Jim Clayton: We talked about what resilience really is, not just bouncing back, but bouncing back stronger.

25
00:01:33,320 –> 00:01:39,479
Coach Jim Clayton: We unpacked how setbacks can actually set the stage for you for some comebacks

26
00:01:39,400 –> 00:01:45,560
Coach Jim Clayton: And we shared some examples from our own lives of what it’s like to grow through adversity.

27
00:01:45,560 –> 00:01:49,160
Coach Jim Clayton: Today, though, we’re going to dig in a little bit deeper.

28
00:01:49,340 –> 00:01:54,140
Coach Jim Clayton: We’re going to start by answering a really big question, and that’s can resilience be taught?

29
00:01:54,140 –> 00:01:58,940
Coach Jim Clayton: Then we’re going to talk about the things that that kind of get in the way of our ability to bounce back.

30
00:01:58,940 –> 00:01:59,740
Coach Jim Clayton: And then finally

31
00:01:59,900 –> 00:02:04,300
Coach Jim Clayton: We’ll look at what mentally strong people do differently.

32
00:02:04,300 –> 00:02:11,660
Coach Jim Clayton: These are practical takeaways you can apply in your life, in your leadership, and even in your relationships if you want to.

33
00:02:11,400 –> 00:02:22,840
Coach Jim Clayton: So whether you’re coaching, you’re competing, you’re parenting, and I know that one well, Jim knows that one well, or you’re just trying to keep moving forward, this episode’s for you.

34
00:02:22,840 –> 00:02:24,439
Coach Jim Clayton: So let’s get to it.

35
00:02:24,900 –> 00:02:28,580
Coach Jim Clayton: So first off, Jim, I’m going to ask the question.

36
00:02:28,580 –> 00:02:32,260
Coach Jim Clayton: The big misconception that people have about resilience is that

37
00:02:33,020 –> 00:02:34,300
Coach Jim Clayton: It can’t be taught.

38
00:02:34,940 –> 00:02:36,140
Coach Jim Clayton: It can be taught.

39
00:02:36,140 –> 00:02:37,180
Coach Jim Clayton: It can be taught.

40
00:02:37,180 –> 00:02:37,739
Randy Black: Yes.

41
00:02:38,140 –> 00:02:40,940
Randy Black: And here’s the thing about you’re not born with it.

42
00:02:40,940 –> 00:02:41,500
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

43
00:02:41,500 –> 00:02:45,019
Randy Black: Okay, because when you’re born, when you when you think about young kids

44
00:02:45,320 –> 00:02:46,840
Randy Black: You think about this.

45
00:02:46,840 –> 00:02:52,280
Randy Black: And I just, it just happens every day at my house with my grand my granddaughters, four and six.

46
00:02:52,280 –> 00:02:52,840
Randy Black: Right.

47
00:02:52,840 –> 00:02:54,680
Randy Black: And we did the same thing.

48
00:02:54,680 –> 00:02:55,960
Randy Black: I’m tired

49
00:02:56,560 –> 00:02:58,240
Randy Black: Oh, it’s okay, honey.

50
00:02:58,240 –> 00:02:59,840
Randy Black: Sit down, take it easy.

51
00:02:59,840 –> 00:03:04,720
Randy Black: So there pretty soon they start to believe that, man, if I just say I’m tired

52
00:03:04,920 –> 00:03:06,360
Randy Black: I’m going to get this.

53
00:03:06,600 –> 00:03:08,360
Randy Black: So it’s kinda like the same thing.

54
00:03:08,360 –> 00:03:14,680
Randy Black: You program your mind to think one thing when really gonna come a point in time where I don’t care if you’re tired.

55
00:03:14,760 –> 00:03:16,600
Randy Black: We don’t quit when we’re tired, we quit when we’re done.

56
00:03:16,920 –> 00:03:18,120
Randy Black: Get up and let’s keep going.

57
00:03:18,120 –> 00:03:19,560
Randy Black: Well they’re not used to that.

58
00:03:19,560 –> 00:03:20,040
Randy Black: Okay?

59
00:03:20,040 –> 00:03:20,599
Randy Black: Yeah.

60
00:03:20,599 –> 00:03:27,959
Randy Black: So the other thing is to learn how to be resistant, resilient, you have to be intentional

61
00:03:28,160 –> 00:03:28,640
Randy Black: Okay.

62
00:03:28,640 –> 00:03:32,080
Randy Black: This is not something that just magically happened.

63
00:03:32,080 –> 00:03:32,560
Randy Black: Okay.

64
00:03:32,560 –> 00:03:35,280
Randy Black: It’s not something that happens by accident.

65
00:03:35,280 –> 00:03:37,280
Randy Black: It happens through experience

66
00:03:37,760 –> 00:03:46,080
Randy Black: And, you know, when we talk about resiliency, most of the time when you’re bouncing back from something, something’s happened in your life that you’re just not

67
00:03:46,720 –> 00:03:48,000
Randy Black: really like it.

68
00:03:48,000 –> 00:03:48,640
Coach Jim Clayton: Mm-hmm.

69
00:03:48,640 –> 00:03:49,040
Randy Black: Okay.

70
00:03:49,040 –> 00:03:50,000
Randy Black: Whatever that is.

71
00:03:50,000 –> 00:03:50,400
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

72
00:03:50,400 –> 00:03:50,720
Randy Black: Okay.

73
00:03:50,720 –> 00:03:52,959
Randy Black: I’ll give you a classic example today.

74
00:03:52,959 –> 00:03:53,680
Randy Black: Today.

75
00:03:53,680 –> 00:03:54,079
Coach Jim Clayton: Mm-hmm.

76
00:03:54,079 –> 00:03:54,640
Randy Black: Okay.

77
00:03:54,640 –> 00:03:56,239
Randy Black: I went and had a PET scan.

78
00:03:56,239 –> 00:03:57,200
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

79
00:03:57,379 –> 00:04:01,220
Randy Black: Well, luckily, I know some people in this town.

80
00:04:01,220 –> 00:04:05,060
Randy Black: And I’m kind of one of these people that I don’t want to worry about it.

81
00:04:05,060 –> 00:04:07,700
Randy Black: Just tell me straight up what’s going on.

82
00:04:07,480 –> 00:04:10,280
Randy Black: Because we talked about this certainly in the first episode.

83
00:04:10,280 –> 00:04:12,760
Randy Black: If I know what’s going on, I can get a game plan.

84
00:04:12,760 –> 00:04:13,400
Coach Jim Clayton: Exactly.

85
00:04:13,400 –> 00:04:16,840
Randy Black: And then I can work my game plan and execute it, you know what I mean?

86
00:04:17,000 –> 00:04:19,400
Randy Black: And I can get the outcome I want, hopefully

87
00:04:18,860 –> 00:04:19,180
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

88
00:04:19,180 –> 00:04:20,860
Randy Black: But it’s not gonna be from trying.

89
00:04:21,420 –> 00:04:25,340
Randy Black: You don’t always get what you want, but you gotta make sure that you’re giving us your best effort.

90
00:04:25,340 –> 00:04:25,500
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

91
00:04:28,940 –> 00:04:29,420
Randy Black: Exactly.

92
00:04:29,420 –> 00:04:33,660
Randy Black: In our camp this week, I told someone our campus had two things.

93
00:04:33,480 –> 00:04:37,480
Randy Black: A coach, teacher, parent should not have to do.

94
00:04:37,480 –> 00:04:40,600
Randy Black: They shouldn’t have to worry about your effort or your attitude.

95
00:04:40,600 –> 00:04:43,000
Randy Black: And those are two pretty big peels.

96
00:04:43,139 –> 00:04:46,820
Randy Black: that coaches, teachers, and parents can’t get together.

97
00:04:46,820 –> 00:04:47,380
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

98
00:04:47,380 –> 00:04:48,660
Randy Black: They can’t get that right.

99
00:04:48,660 –> 00:04:51,380
Randy Black: Their efforts are terrible and their attitude’s bad.

100
00:04:51,160 –> 00:04:54,200
Randy Black: And then when you try to fix them, then they’re having a pity party.

101
00:04:54,200 –> 00:04:55,240
Randy Black: It’s always your fault.

102
00:04:55,240 –> 00:04:57,080
Randy Black: No, it’s not my fault, it’s your fault.

103
00:04:57,080 –> 00:04:59,400
Randy Black: Okay, so you know you gotta look at it like that.

104
00:04:59,400 –> 00:05:03,960
Randy Black: But I told I told these kids, I said, you know, when things happen bad

105
00:05:04,220 –> 00:05:06,300
Randy Black: Things aren’t going well in the game?

106
00:05:06,300 –> 00:05:07,900
Randy Black: Not making shots?

107
00:05:07,900 –> 00:05:08,780
Randy Black: Not doing this.

108
00:05:08,780 –> 00:05:10,460
Randy Black: What are you gonna do to flip it?

109
00:05:10,460 –> 00:05:12,460
Randy Black: What are you gonna do to turn it around

110
00:05:12,539 –> 00:05:14,860
Randy Black: And it all starts between your ear.

111
00:05:14,860 –> 00:05:15,580
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

112
00:05:15,580 –> 00:05:16,780
Randy Black: It’s that brain of yours.

113
00:05:16,780 –> 00:05:19,099
Randy Black: And last time I checked, thinking is a skill too.

114
00:05:19,099 –> 00:05:21,099
Randy Black: And a lot of people just underthink.

115
00:05:23,100 –> 00:05:25,900
Randy Black: So, now I said today, I’m going to get a pest camp.

116
00:05:25,900 –> 00:05:27,740
Randy Black: So my doctor calls me on the phone.

117
00:05:27,740 –> 00:05:30,220
Randy Black: I said, hey doc, what’s going on?

118
00:05:30,240 –> 00:05:32,960
Randy Black: Well, I knew it was gonna be one way or the other.

119
00:05:32,960 –> 00:05:37,360
Randy Black: So he goes, well, he goes, things are growing a little bit.

120
00:05:37,360 –> 00:05:40,320
Randy Black: Things are getting not bad.

121
00:05:40,860 –> 00:05:43,979
Randy Black: But they’re not going in kind of in the direction we want.

122
00:05:44,379 –> 00:05:47,659
Randy Black: Well at that moment, that ain’t really what I wanted to hear.

123
00:05:47,819 –> 00:05:48,060
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

124
00:05:48,060 –> 00:05:49,259
Randy Black: Oh, I can imagine.

125
00:05:49,259 –> 00:05:52,539
Randy Black: And anybody who’s had that, they they know what I’m talking about.

126
00:05:52,940 –> 00:05:53,419
Randy Black: Okay?

127
00:05:53,419 –> 00:05:54,699
Randy Black: So I said to myself

128
00:05:54,920 –> 00:05:59,240
Randy Black: Okay, well, what do we got to do?

129
00:05:59,240 –> 00:06:00,840
Randy Black: And I asked him a couple questions.

130
00:06:00,840 –> 00:06:05,000
Randy Black: Well, we’re gonna do this, we’re gonna try to do this, we’re gonna try to do it, and we’re gonna work on it.

131
00:06:05,000 –> 00:06:06,520
Randy Black: I said, okay, I got you.

132
00:06:06,520 –> 00:06:07,480
Randy Black: I gotcha

133
00:06:07,639 –> 00:06:08,280
Randy Black: Okay.

134
00:06:08,280 –> 00:06:11,160
Randy Black: Now I could have sat there and gone boo-hoo crap.

135
00:06:11,160 –> 00:06:11,960
Randy Black: I mean, you know what I mean?

136
00:06:11,960 –> 00:06:15,639
Randy Black: Not what I want to hear, but I go, okay, I knew tonight

137
00:06:16,120 –> 00:06:21,720
Randy Black: We were coming in here and we were going to work on the foundational truths of resilience.

138
00:06:22,120 –> 00:06:26,840
Randy Black: I said, well, big boy, it’s time for you to swallow a little bit of your own advice.

139
00:06:26,840 –> 00:06:27,479
Coach Jim Clayton: Yep

140
00:06:27,200 –> 00:06:28,400
Randy Black: And that’s what I did.

141
00:06:28,400 –> 00:06:31,360
Randy Black: And that’s how my attitude changed towards that.

142
00:06:31,360 –> 00:06:33,200
Randy Black: And so I got here.

143
00:06:33,200 –> 00:06:40,000
Randy Black: And of course I told my wife, I told my son, and so my son gave me, he gave me, he gives me two quotes.

144
00:06:39,820 –> 00:06:41,420
Randy Black: Bible verses.

145
00:06:41,660 –> 00:06:46,620
Randy Black: And I can’t tell them to you exactly yet because I never really heard these.

146
00:06:46,620 –> 00:06:48,620
Randy Black: And he said, I want you to keep these in your car.

147
00:06:48,780 –> 00:06:51,660
Randy Black: I want you to tell yourself these every day.

148
00:06:51,980 –> 00:06:53,500
Randy Black: Said, I got you.

149
00:06:53,500 –> 00:06:56,300
Randy Black: So I didn’t see them, and they were in my car.

150
00:06:56,300 –> 00:06:58,780
Randy Black: So I look at one, I’ll share them with you later.

151
00:06:58,780 –> 00:06:59,100
Randy Black: Okay.

152
00:06:59,100 –> 00:06:59,980
Randy Black: You know them.

153
00:07:00,700 –> 00:07:01,020
Randy Black: And

154
00:07:01,740 –> 00:07:03,340
Randy Black: I’m gonna do it.

155
00:07:03,660 –> 00:07:05,500
Randy Black: Because I know God’s looking out for me.

156
00:07:05,500 –> 00:07:11,900
Randy Black: I know there’s a higher power looking after me because I’ve done too many things in my life to kill myself that He didn’t let me let happen.

157
00:07:11,900 –> 00:07:14,220
Randy Black: So I know He ain’t done with me

158
00:07:13,800 –> 00:07:15,319
Randy Black: He’s just testing me.

159
00:07:15,319 –> 00:07:18,919
Randy Black: He’s making me see, okay, what are you going to do about it?

160
00:07:19,479 –> 00:07:21,319
Randy Black: It doesn’t matter what happens to you.

161
00:07:21,319 –> 00:07:24,360
Randy Black: It just matters what are you going to do about it?

162
00:07:24,520 –> 00:07:26,120
Randy Black: And so I said, okay.

163
00:07:26,120 –> 00:07:32,760
Randy Black: So I got up here to Sports CDU and I’ve been researching a few things on my own, trying to be like the play doctor.

164
00:07:32,760 –> 00:07:33,400
Randy Black: Okay.

165
00:07:33,400 –> 00:07:35,400
Randy Black: So I called my doctor.

166
00:07:35,220 –> 00:07:40,180
Randy Black: Now, my doctor, young lady, I had her in school night now.

167
00:07:40,180 –> 00:07:40,580
Coach Jim Clayton: Okay.

168
00:07:40,740 –> 00:07:42,500
Randy Black: But her she has a twin sister.

169
00:07:42,500 –> 00:07:43,460
Randy Black: They’re both doctors.

170
00:07:43,960 –> 00:07:47,800
Randy Black: And her dad was a science teacher at the old Kamak where I went to school.

171
00:07:47,800 –> 00:07:51,560
Randy Black: So I think I said, when you get a minute, give me a shout.

172
00:07:51,560 –> 00:07:52,919
Randy Black: I got a question for you.

173
00:07:52,919 –> 00:07:54,600
Randy Black: It wasn’t 30 seconds.

174
00:07:55,920 –> 00:07:57,200
Randy Black: She’s on the phone.

175
00:07:57,200 –> 00:08:00,640
Randy Black: You know, I’m thinking, man, I wasn’t really expecting to call back that quick.

176
00:08:00,880 –> 00:08:03,920
Randy Black: She says, man, when I saw that, I’m calling you back right now

177
00:08:03,900 –> 00:08:05,419
Randy Black: I said, well thank you so much.

178
00:08:05,419 –> 00:08:06,860
Randy Black: So we had a great conversation.

179
00:08:06,860 –> 00:08:08,220
Randy Black: She said she’s gonna do some things.

180
00:08:08,220 –> 00:08:09,660
Randy Black: She’s told me I need to do some things.

181
00:08:09,820 –> 00:08:12,139
Randy Black: Already done them, sent them to her, the balls rolled

182
00:08:12,539 –> 00:08:19,259
Randy Black: Now you know again I I that what I heard today is not exactly what I wanted to hear.

183
00:08:19,259 –> 00:08:21,659
Randy Black: But I’m not gonna let that brew in my day.

184
00:08:21,659 –> 00:08:22,699
Coach Jim Clayton: Exactly.

185
00:08:22,460 –> 00:08:24,220
Randy Black: Because I’m having a good diet.

186
00:08:24,220 –> 00:08:24,699
Coach Jim Clayton: Mm-hmm.

187
00:08:24,699 –> 00:08:27,099
Randy Black: I don’t like PEP scans, especially at twelve o’clock.

188
00:08:27,099 –> 00:08:27,259
Randy Black: Yeah.

189
00:08:27,419 –> 00:08:28,300
Randy Black: ‘Cause you can’t eat.

190
00:08:28,300 –> 00:08:28,620
Randy Black: Right.

191
00:08:28,620 –> 00:08:30,379
Randy Black: You know, from ten o’clock at night till

192
00:08:30,840 –> 00:08:33,479
Randy Black: So I’m kinda a little hungry right now, but I’ll get over it.

193
00:08:33,479 –> 00:08:34,280
Randy Black: I’ll get over it.

194
00:08:34,280 –> 00:08:35,320
Randy Black: I can eat when I get home.

195
00:08:35,320 –> 00:08:36,680
Randy Black: Like I said, I’m not worried about it.

196
00:08:36,680 –> 00:08:39,400
Randy Black: I’m more I’d rather be here than eat.

197
00:08:39,279 –> 00:08:41,599
Randy Black: But that’s the big thing.

198
00:08:41,599 –> 00:08:42,080
Randy Black: Okay?

199
00:08:42,080 –> 00:08:45,839
Randy Black: You’re not born with it, but you can intentionally develop it.

200
00:08:46,320 –> 00:08:48,080
Randy Black: But not by being pitiful.

201
00:08:48,080 –> 00:08:48,720
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

202
00:08:48,720 –> 00:08:50,160
Randy Black: By being powerful.

203
00:08:50,160 –> 00:08:50,480
Randy Black: Okay

204
00:08:50,940 –> 00:08:52,860
Randy Black: So, how do you get powerful?

205
00:08:52,860 –> 00:08:55,100
Randy Black: You don’t let little things get you down.

206
00:08:55,100 –> 00:08:58,220
Randy Black: Most of the things that we really truly worry about

207
00:08:58,660 –> 00:09:00,340
Randy Black: They never happen anyway.

208
00:09:00,340 –> 00:09:02,020
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah, I can agree.

209
00:09:02,020 –> 00:09:05,380
Randy Black: But we just let it consume our energy.

210
00:09:06,420 –> 00:09:09,380
Randy Black: The sound that brings you down.

211
00:09:09,720 –> 00:09:12,280
Randy Black: And I don’t turn that on my radio.

212
00:09:12,840 –> 00:09:14,920
Randy Black: That’s just not coming on my radio.

213
00:09:14,920 –> 00:09:17,080
Randy Black: I’m not listening to people bring me down.

214
00:09:17,080 –> 00:09:19,880
Randy Black: I got other things to set to hear and do.

215
00:09:19,880 –> 00:09:20,360
Randy Black: Okay.

216
00:09:20,360 –> 00:09:21,640
Randy Black: I’m not interested in

217
00:09:21,759 –> 00:09:24,000
Randy Black: Talking about the negative, I want to know the posture.

218
00:09:24,000 –> 00:09:24,959
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

219
00:09:24,959 –> 00:09:30,399
Randy Black: And the world today, and you I I know you agree with me 100%, it’s just so negative.

220
00:09:30,399 –> 00:09:31,440
Coach Jim Clayton: Oh, definitely.

221
00:09:31,440 –> 00:09:33,680
Randy Black: And people feed off the negative.

222
00:09:33,680 –> 00:09:34,399
Coach Jim Clayton: They do

223
00:09:35,040 –> 00:09:38,000
Randy Black: I and you are not one of those people.

224
00:09:38,000 –> 00:09:42,240
Coach Jim Clayton: I I do I I try so hard every day to make sure that I’m not being that negative.

225
00:09:42,240 –> 00:09:43,120
Coach Jim Clayton: But it’s easy to do.

226
00:09:43,120 –> 00:09:43,600
Coach Jim Clayton: Oh it is.

227
00:09:43,600 –> 00:09:44,720
Coach Jim Clayton: It’s so easy to fall in that trap.

228
00:09:45,459 –> 00:09:49,140
Coach Jim Clayton: Especially with social media and everything and the instant gratification that’s out there.

229
00:09:49,140 –> 00:09:53,540
Coach Jim Clayton: Oh if you if you want to have what you’re thinking reinforced, just get on Facebook.

230
00:09:53,540 –> 00:09:56,500
Coach Jim Clayton: Just get on Twitter or X or whatever it’s called now.

231
00:09:56,160 –> 00:09:58,960
Coach Jim Clayton: And you’ll find a way to get it reinforced.

232
00:09:58,960 –> 00:10:04,160
Randy Black: But you know, the thing is, through all that crap that’s on there, there are really good people.

233
00:10:04,160 –> 00:10:04,800
Randy Black: There are.

234
00:10:04,800 –> 00:10:07,680
Randy Black: And so I sent out a little thing to ask, you know, I’m having this.

235
00:10:07,680 –> 00:10:08,400
Randy Black: You know, I said

236
00:10:08,759 –> 00:10:10,360
Randy Black: You know, life is precious.

237
00:10:10,360 –> 00:10:11,000
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

238
00:10:11,000 –> 00:10:15,160
Randy Black: And you better learn how to celebrate every second of every day.

239
00:10:15,399 –> 00:10:18,040
Randy Black: Especially when you get older like me.

240
00:10:18,040 –> 00:10:25,399
Randy Black: You know, you start to see all the things where they say, you know, you better you better think about that when you’re thirty, forty, fifty but you don’t.

241
00:10:25,399 –> 00:10:25,800
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

242
00:10:25,800 –> 00:10:28,760
Randy Black: Because you think, oh no, you know, I got time out.

243
00:10:29,399 –> 00:10:30,200
Randy Black: I got plenty of time.

244
00:10:30,200 –> 00:10:31,399
Randy Black: Well you don’t know that.

245
00:10:31,399 –> 00:10:32,760
Randy Black: Right.

246
00:10:32,120 –> 00:10:33,399
Randy Black: Nobody knows that.

247
00:10:33,800 –> 00:10:38,440
Randy Black: The expiration date on your life card, only one guy knows that.

248
00:10:38,440 –> 00:10:39,800
Randy Black: And I ain’t it.

249
00:10:40,120 –> 00:10:45,080
Randy Black: So I’m making taking advantage of everything possible.

250
00:10:45,080 –> 00:10:46,760
Randy Black: No regret.

251
00:10:46,779 –> 00:10:55,660
Randy Black: And so, you know, that’s my thing, is you can cook that little pity party off your shoulder, gone.

252
00:10:55,740 –> 00:10:57,660
Randy Black: What do I gotta do to fix it?

253
00:10:57,660 –> 00:10:58,620
Randy Black: Let’s go.

254
00:10:59,100 –> 00:11:03,420
Randy Black: Now when you’re in that fix it mode and when life throws your curveballs

255
00:11:03,920 –> 00:11:06,880
Randy Black: Here’s what you need to know that most people don’t know.

256
00:11:06,880 –> 00:11:08,639
Randy Black: You’re in a growth bug.

257
00:11:08,639 –> 00:11:10,720
Randy Black: You are growing as a person.

258
00:11:11,720 –> 00:11:13,160
Randy Black: You are getting better.

259
00:11:13,560 –> 00:11:15,560
Randy Black: People think, how am I gonna do that?

260
00:11:16,200 –> 00:11:18,600
Randy Black: You think it’s the other most people think the opposite.

261
00:11:19,640 –> 00:11:22,040
Randy Black: Well, not the really successful

262
00:11:22,940 –> 00:11:31,180
Randy Black: They’re thinking opportunity to get better, to grow, to get tougher skin, a little bit thicker skin

263
00:11:31,440 –> 00:11:33,040
Randy Black: Okay, and that’s what people gotta get.

264
00:11:35,200 –> 00:11:40,000
Randy Black: You gotta let that thing be like a chest armor and it just bounces off of you.

265
00:11:40,400 –> 00:11:42,000
Randy Black: Give me what’s your best shot, baby.

266
00:11:42,320 –> 00:11:42,960
Randy Black: Come on

267
00:11:42,880 –> 00:11:43,120
Randy Black: Bam!

268
00:11:43,760 –> 00:11:44,080
Randy Black: Bam!

269
00:11:44,080 –> 00:11:44,720
Randy Black: Come on, bam!

270
00:11:44,720 –> 00:11:45,440
Randy Black: You ain’t touching it.

271
00:11:45,600 –> 00:11:52,080
Coach Jim Clayton: You say that you say that and immediately the thing that I think of, kids are little and they’re the I’m rubber and you’re glue.

272
00:11:51,900 –> 00:11:55,020
Coach Jim Clayton: That old saying it immediately it’s it’s it’s what pops in my head.

273
00:11:55,020 –> 00:12:01,100
Coach Jim Clayton: I just imagine the stuff just bouncing off and and going out of the way and getting out of your you know it’s it’s not gonna it’s not gonna bring you down.

274
00:12:01,100 –> 00:12:03,900
Coach Jim Clayton: You’re not letting it you’re not letting that stick to you

275
00:12:03,600 –> 00:12:05,120
Coach Jim Clayton: You’re sending it on its way.

276
00:12:05,120 –> 00:12:09,600
Randy Black: Put that armor on, put that chest on there and go, bam, bam, hit me with your best shot.

277
00:12:09,600 –> 00:12:10,079
Randy Black: Come on.

278
00:12:10,079 –> 00:12:10,880
Randy Black: Because it ain’t working.

279
00:12:10,880 –> 00:12:13,600
Randy Black: Then pretty soon after a while they realize it’s not working.

280
00:12:13,600 –> 00:12:15,040
Randy Black: And guess what?

281
00:12:15,040 –> 00:12:15,759
Randy Black: They quit.

282
00:12:15,759 –> 00:12:16,240
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

283
00:12:16,240 –> 00:12:18,079
Randy Black: They quit doing it.

284
00:12:17,200 –> 00:12:18,960
Randy Black: They move on to the next target.

285
00:12:19,760 –> 00:12:21,840
Randy Black: And I’m not your target.

286
00:12:21,840 –> 00:12:23,760
Randy Black: You ain’t gonna hit me.

287
00:12:23,760 –> 00:12:30,240
Randy Black: So a setback today, you already said this earlier, I’m gonna turn it into a great comeback.

288
00:12:30,960 –> 00:12:32,880
Randy Black: Now it ain’t gonna happen today.

289
00:12:34,240 –> 00:12:36,800
Randy Black: But the plan’s in place.

290
00:12:36,800 –> 00:12:39,360
Randy Black: But it is happening mentally.

291
00:12:39,360 –> 00:12:41,680
Randy Black: It’s already happening up here.

292
00:12:42,100 –> 00:12:44,100
Randy Black: I’m not gonna let this get me down.

293
00:12:44,100 –> 00:12:44,340
Randy Black: Right.

294
00:12:44,500 –> 00:12:46,020
Randy Black: God, I know you’re looking after me.

295
00:12:46,020 –> 00:12:47,380
Randy Black: I know you’re testing me.

296
00:12:47,380 –> 00:12:48,980
Randy Black: I know this is a test.

297
00:12:48,980 –> 00:12:52,020
Randy Black: This is I know you got something up your sleeve, baby.

298
00:12:52,020 –> 00:12:53,300
Randy Black: And I’ll figure it out.

299
00:12:53,300 –> 00:12:56,260
Randy Black: Just give me it, just give me a little time.

300
00:12:55,540 –> 00:12:58,899
Randy Black: And I’ll bounce back bigger and better than ever.

301
00:12:58,899 –> 00:13:00,580
Randy Black: And that’s what you gotta do.

302
00:13:00,580 –> 00:13:04,580
Randy Black: So to wrap it up in that, you can’t teach it.

303
00:13:04,580 –> 00:13:05,060
Randy Black: Okay.

304
00:13:05,060 –> 00:13:07,620
Randy Black: But you gotta be around people that can teach it

305
00:13:07,920 –> 00:13:11,680
Randy Black: If you’re around somebody who’s feeling sorry for yourself, guess what you’re gonna do?

306
00:13:11,680 –> 00:13:14,000
Randy Black: You’re gonna mimic that person.

307
00:13:14,959 –> 00:13:16,639
Randy Black: So how do you teach it?

308
00:13:16,639 –> 00:13:17,279
Randy Black: Well

309
00:13:18,100 –> 00:13:23,220
Randy Black: You really teach I’ll I’ll teach you everything, myself personally, through story.

310
00:13:23,220 –> 00:13:24,020
Randy Black: Okay.

311
00:13:24,020 –> 00:13:25,140
Randy Black: Story.

312
00:13:25,140 –> 00:13:27,940
Randy Black: Stories about what I’ve gone through.

313
00:13:27,839 –> 00:13:29,920
Randy Black: Stories about what other people have gone through.

314
00:13:30,079 –> 00:13:33,600
Randy Black: I listen to stories every day.

315
00:13:33,600 –> 00:13:35,360
Randy Black: And I listen to people.

316
00:13:35,360 –> 00:13:36,639
Randy Black: Every day I do this.

317
00:13:36,639 –> 00:13:39,920
Randy Black: Have a time set in the morning that I do this.

318
00:13:39,720 –> 00:13:43,960
Randy Black: People that are in way worse situations than me.

319
00:13:43,960 –> 00:13:46,760
Randy Black: Health-wise, all that other stuff.

320
00:13:46,760 –> 00:13:51,960
Randy Black: And I listened to them and their stories of how they overcame it.

321
00:13:51,960 –> 00:13:52,760
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

322
00:13:52,940 –> 00:13:55,180
Randy Black: And I’m going, wow.

323
00:13:55,180 –> 00:13:59,180
Randy Black: May you know and I share those stories.

324
00:13:59,260 –> 00:14:00,540
Randy Black: So I taught school.

325
00:14:00,540 –> 00:14:00,940
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

326
00:14:00,940 –> 00:14:01,900
Randy Black: Everything’s a story.

327
00:14:01,900 –> 00:14:02,220
Coach Jim Clayton: Mm-hmm.

328
00:14:02,300 –> 00:14:03,100
Coach Jim Clayton: Oh I taught history.

329
00:14:03,100 –> 00:14:04,940
Coach Jim Clayton: I made sure everything was a story of history.

330
00:14:05,340 –> 00:14:07,340
Coach Jim Clayton: The students can grasp it so much easier.

331
00:14:07,400 –> 00:14:08,600
Randy Black: Oh absolutely.

332
00:14:08,600 –> 00:14:10,440
Randy Black: So I do that every day.

333
00:14:10,440 –> 00:14:13,000
Randy Black: You know, and I share that with people.

334
00:14:13,000 –> 00:14:14,520
Randy Black: I send it to people every day.

335
00:14:14,520 –> 00:14:15,320
Randy Black: You know what?

336
00:14:15,320 –> 00:14:19,240
Randy Black: Every time I send it to my friends, a video, thanks.

337
00:14:19,420 –> 00:14:20,699
Randy Black: They sent a thing back.

338
00:14:20,699 –> 00:14:21,980
Randy Black: Man, thanks so much.

339
00:14:21,980 –> 00:14:23,899
Randy Black: I really needed to hear that today.

340
00:14:24,699 –> 00:14:27,899
Randy Black: Now that just took me five seconds to do that.

341
00:14:27,899 –> 00:14:31,500
Randy Black: Now, like I told you, it mo it hit me

342
00:14:31,820 –> 00:14:37,260
Randy Black: So when it hits me like pow, bam, yeah, I got that 24 hour rule.

343
00:14:37,260 –> 00:14:39,180
Randy Black: Now the 24 hour rule is this

344
00:14:40,020 –> 00:14:48,900
Randy Black: When something moves me like that that I can share to help other people who are down in the dumps trying to look for a bounce back mentality, I got 24 hours to share it

345
00:14:48,959 –> 00:14:50,240
Randy Black: Or I ain’t sharing it.

346
00:14:50,240 –> 00:14:50,640
Randy Black: Yeah.

347
00:14:50,640 –> 00:14:51,680
Randy Black: It’ll go dead.

348
00:14:51,680 –> 00:14:52,800
Randy Black: It’ll go dormant.

349
00:14:52,800 –> 00:14:54,320
Randy Black: I’ll forget about it.

350
00:14:54,320 –> 00:14:56,640
Randy Black: And I’ll never get a chance to do that.

351
00:14:56,640 –> 00:15:01,600
Randy Black: And I do it because if you help one person bounce back

352
00:15:03,040 –> 00:15:05,760
Randy Black: Maybe they’ll use that to bounce back a second time.

353
00:15:05,760 –> 00:15:06,240
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

354
00:15:06,240 –> 00:15:07,200
Randy Black: And a third time.

355
00:15:07,440 –> 00:15:10,640
Randy Black: And you can’t bounce back two times till you bounce back once.

356
00:15:10,640 –> 00:15:11,600
Coach Jim Clayton: Exactly.

357
00:15:11,540 –> 00:15:12,100
Randy Black: Okay.

358
00:15:12,100 –> 00:15:15,140
Randy Black: You can’t have ninety-two podcasts without having a third one.

359
00:15:15,140 –> 00:15:15,779
Randy Black: Oh yeah.

360
00:15:15,779 –> 00:15:16,180
Randy Black: Okay.

361
00:15:16,180 –> 00:15:17,380
Randy Black: So the it’s a step.

362
00:15:17,380 –> 00:15:18,420
Randy Black: It’s a procedure.

363
00:15:18,580 –> 00:15:19,300
Randy Black: It’s the idea.

364
00:15:19,860 –> 00:15:20,339
Coach Jim Clayton: It’s the idea.

365
00:15:20,500 –> 00:15:23,459
Coach Jim Clayton: It’s an idea that it’s that I saw in your notes

366
00:15:23,240 –> 00:15:26,200
Coach Jim Clayton: And it’s that you’re not gonna be good the first time.

367
00:15:26,200 –> 00:15:27,400
Randy Black: Nobody is.

368
00:15:27,400 –> 00:15:29,240
Coach Jim Clayton: But that’s when the resilience starts.

369
00:15:29,240 –> 00:15:30,760
Coach Jim Clayton: You keep pushing forward.

370
00:15:30,760 –> 00:15:31,800
Coach Jim Clayton: You’ve got to get better.

371
00:15:31,800 –> 00:15:33,160
Coach Jim Clayton: You’ve got to bounce back off of it.

372
00:15:33,560 –> 00:15:35,000
Randy Black: That’s when the growth happens.

373
00:15:35,000 –> 00:15:35,640
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah

374
00:15:35,380 –> 00:15:37,540
Randy Black: The CPU don’t think about growing.

375
00:15:37,540 –> 00:15:40,339
Randy Black: They’re thinking about losing, going backwards.

376
00:15:40,339 –> 00:15:42,500
Randy Black: I said, I’m not interested in regression.

377
00:15:42,500 –> 00:15:44,339
Randy Black: I’m interested in progression.

378
00:15:44,959 –> 00:15:46,480
Randy Black: I don’t want to regress.

379
00:15:46,480 –> 00:15:48,320
Randy Black: I’m not interested in activity.

380
00:15:48,320 –> 00:15:50,560
Randy Black: We got enough of that crap going around every day.

381
00:15:50,800 –> 00:15:52,240
Randy Black: I’m interested in productivity.

382
00:15:55,519 –> 00:15:57,200
Coach Jim Clayton: A lot of people are afraid

383
00:15:57,140 –> 00:15:57,940
Coach Jim Clayton: to fail.

384
00:15:57,940 –> 00:15:58,740
Coach Jim Clayton: Oh God.

385
00:15:58,740 –> 00:16:03,060
Coach Jim Clayton: They they they see failure as not just a setback, but as an end.

386
00:16:03,060 –> 00:16:04,020
Coach Jim Clayton: And it’s not.

387
00:16:04,020 –> 00:16:04,420
Coach Jim Clayton: No.

388
00:16:04,660 –> 00:16:07,300
Coach Jim Clayton: It goes back it goes back to the fortune growth.

389
00:16:07,300 –> 00:16:09,540
Coach Jim Clayton: It goes back to that fortune cookie that I keep talking.

390
00:16:09,540 –> 00:16:11,860
Coach Jim Clayton: I’ve talked about for years now.

391
00:16:11,240 –> 00:16:14,760
Coach Jim Clayton: Failure is feedback and feedback is the breakfast of champions.

392
00:16:14,760 –> 00:16:20,120
Coach Jim Clayton: You take what happens from that failure and you use it to grow, to get better.

393
00:16:20,120 –> 00:16:24,600
Coach Jim Clayton: And I I told students this all the time when I was teaching, you know, they come in and they’re

394
00:16:24,459 –> 00:16:27,500
Coach Jim Clayton: They get their tests back and they’re like, uh man, I failed this.

395
00:16:27,500 –> 00:16:28,300
Coach Jim Clayton: This is horrible.

396
00:16:28,300 –> 00:16:29,899
Coach Jim Clayton: I’m like, it’s not horrible.

397
00:16:29,899 –> 00:16:31,100
Coach Jim Clayton: Because you’re going to look at it.

398
00:16:31,100 –> 00:16:31,899
Coach Jim Clayton: We’re going to take the time.

399
00:16:31,899 –> 00:16:35,740
Coach Jim Clayton: You’re going to go through, see what you got wrong, fix it.

400
00:16:35,459 –> 00:16:37,380
Coach Jim Clayton: So that you still know the information.

401
00:16:37,380 –> 00:16:39,459
Coach Jim Clayton: You’re looking it up and making sure you can do it.

402
00:16:39,459 –> 00:16:41,220
Randy Black: God told me this a long time ago.

403
00:16:41,220 –> 00:16:45,540
Randy Black: He says sometimes failure is just a better way to begin again more intelligently

404
00:16:45,540 –> 00:16:45,940
Randy Black: Yeah.

405
00:16:45,940 –> 00:16:47,380
Randy Black: And I said, man, that’s it.

406
00:16:47,380 –> 00:16:48,580
Randy Black: But here’s the big thing.

407
00:16:48,580 –> 00:16:51,220
Randy Black: If you want to know something about failure, here it is.

408
00:16:51,220 –> 00:16:55,380
Randy Black: This is the no the nugget of nuggets on failure.

409
00:16:54,839 –> 00:16:56,839
Randy Black: Failure is an event.

410
00:16:56,839 –> 00:16:57,720
Coach Jim Clayton: Yes.

411
00:16:57,720 –> 00:16:59,560
Randy Black: Not a person.

412
00:17:00,440 –> 00:17:03,480
Randy Black: And see, everybody takes it personal.

413
00:17:03,480 –> 00:17:04,360
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

414
00:17:05,620 –> 00:17:06,260
Coach Jim Clayton: It’s not.

415
00:17:06,260 –> 00:17:08,819
Randy Black: And here’s the other thing about failure.

416
00:17:08,819 –> 00:17:11,459
Randy Black: It’s not the opposite of success.

417
00:17:11,459 –> 00:17:12,579
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

418
00:17:12,240 –> 00:17:19,280
Randy Black: Failure and success run side by side by every day

419
00:17:20,640 –> 00:17:25,040
Randy Black: Of every week, of every month, it never stopped.

420
00:17:25,040 –> 00:17:25,360
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

421
00:17:25,360 –> 00:17:26,240
Randy Black: It’s infinite.

422
00:17:26,240 –> 00:17:27,199
Randy Black: It just keeps going.

423
00:17:28,240 –> 00:17:30,240
Randy Black: And you can’t have one without the other.

424
00:17:30,240 –> 00:17:31,200
Randy Black: That’s exactly right.

425
00:17:31,200 –> 00:17:31,600
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

426
00:17:31,600 –> 00:17:32,800
Randy Black: And that’s what people just

427
00:17:32,940 –> 00:17:34,700
Randy Black: They don’t know that.

428
00:17:35,419 –> 00:17:38,299
Randy Black: So therefore they can’t think that.

429
00:17:38,299 –> 00:17:38,940
Randy Black: Yeah.

430
00:17:38,940 –> 00:17:40,620
Randy Black: That’s why we’re here.

431
00:17:40,620 –> 00:17:41,500
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

432
00:17:41,720 –> 00:17:42,680
Randy Black: Sharing it.

433
00:17:42,680 –> 00:17:43,080
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

434
00:17:43,880 –> 00:17:45,800
Randy Black: We didn’t invent the whole world.

435
00:17:45,800 –> 00:17:50,520
Randy Black: You know, there’s some just phenomenal people out there.

436
00:17:50,520 –> 00:17:53,160
Randy Black: And here’s the last thing I will say on this.

437
00:17:53,419 –> 00:18:01,419
Randy Black: You ever notice when I Google something about positivity, all of a sudden I just get tons of positivity stuff?

438
00:18:01,919 –> 00:18:04,320
Randy Black: It picks it up in the algorithm, whatever it is.

439
00:18:04,320 –> 00:18:06,080
Randy Black: And all of a sudden, man, I’m getting quotes.

440
00:18:06,080 –> 00:18:07,519
Randy Black: I’m getting stuff from all these people, man.

441
00:18:08,320 –> 00:18:09,120
Randy Black: It’s awesome.

442
00:18:09,120 –> 00:18:09,760
Randy Black: Yeah

443
00:18:10,640 –> 00:18:13,280
Randy Black: So if you do negative, guess what you’ll get?

444
00:18:13,280 –> 00:18:14,320
Randy Black: You’ll keep seeing the negative.

445
00:18:14,320 –> 00:18:15,600
Randy Black: The same thing.

446
00:18:15,600 –> 00:18:18,480
Randy Black: So the bottom line is it’s on you.

447
00:18:18,480 –> 00:18:19,120
Randy Black: Yeah

448
00:18:19,160 –> 00:18:20,600
Randy Black: It’s always gonna be on you.

449
00:18:20,680 –> 00:18:24,360
Randy Black: It’s on your mom, your dad, your coach, your teacher, your grandpa.

450
00:18:24,360 –> 00:18:25,400
Randy Black: It’s on you.

451
00:18:25,400 –> 00:18:26,120
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

452
00:18:26,120 –> 00:18:27,400
Randy Black: And that stuff

453
00:18:27,820 –> 00:18:33,260
Randy Black: that’s learned early or not learned, it doesn’t matter when you learn it.

454
00:18:33,260 –> 00:18:33,900
Randy Black: Right.

455
00:18:33,900 –> 00:18:35,500
Randy Black: It’s just that you learn.

456
00:18:35,500 –> 00:18:36,140
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

457
00:18:36,240 –> 00:18:41,680
Randy Black: And if you want to learn that, you better learn to get around people that got it down to a sign.

458
00:18:41,680 –> 00:18:42,080
Randy Black: Yeah.

459
00:18:42,080 –> 00:18:43,200

Randy Black: I always yeah I mean you speak way above my head

464
00:18:49,700 –> 00:18:54,100
Randy Black: When you’re talking about technology and all that stuff, woo, you leave me in the dust every day.

465
00:18:54,100 –> 00:18:56,260
Randy Black: But that’s hey, that’s not my thing.

466
00:18:56,260 –> 00:18:56,820
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

467
00:18:56,820 –> 00:18:57,940
Randy Black: That’s your thing

468
00:18:58,419 –> 00:19:00,260

Coach Jim Clayton: But it fits in so well with what we’re talking about with resilience and failure and growth.

480
00:19:52,620 –> 00:19:53,420

487
00:20:13,519 –> 00:20:15,440
Randy Black: Michael Jordan.

488
00:20:15,440 –> 00:20:16,480
Coach Jim Clayton: Michael Jordan.

489
00:20:16,480 –> 00:20:24,080
Coach Jim Clayton: That is the uh the perfect example of someone who who gets it, who understands what this concept is.

490
00:20:24,080 –> 00:20:27,679
Randy Black: But see what separates guys, I had a opportunity

491
00:20:28,440 –> 00:20:38,840
Randy Black: Years ago, back when Michael Jordan was in his heyday with the Chicago Bulls, with the all those championships, I was invited, because I would speak at Nike, to speak at his camp.

492
00:20:39,480 –> 00:20:40,920
Randy Black: So I flew in there

493
00:20:41,060 –> 00:20:43,780
Randy Black: Spoke at his camp six or seven hundred campers.

494
00:20:43,780 –> 00:20:48,260
Randy Black: There he is leaning against the back of the pad under the mask.

495
00:20:48,260 –> 00:20:49,460
Randy Black: So I finished talking.

496
00:20:49,460 –> 00:20:50,500
Randy Black: He walks up to him.

497
00:20:50,580 –> 00:20:51,140
Randy Black: Says now

498
00:20:51,820 –> 00:20:53,740
Randy Black: Coach tell me what you was talking about about that.

499
00:20:53,740 –> 00:20:55,100
Randy Black: He’s talking about his left hand.

500
00:20:55,100 –> 00:20:55,580
Randy Black: About this.

501
00:20:55,580 –> 00:20:56,380
Randy Black: I said this.

502
00:20:56,380 –> 00:20:59,020
Randy Black: He goes, could you show me that?

503
00:20:59,020 –> 00:21:01,180
Randy Black: I’m thinking like, really?

504
00:21:01,260 –> 00:21:02,940
Randy Black: Like I’m not gonna show like that’s not an hour.

505
00:21:03,260 –> 00:21:04,540
Randy Black: Let me get my shoes on

506
00:21:04,400 –> 00:21:05,920
Randy Black: So he gets his shoes on.

507
00:21:05,920 –> 00:21:07,760
Randy Black: We start doing it right there.

508
00:21:07,760 –> 00:21:12,960
Randy Black: And it was like I’m like kicking myself, pitching myself, going, Am I really like

509
00:21:14,799 –> 00:21:15,760
Randy Black: What are you really doing this?

510
00:21:15,760 –> 00:21:16,880
Randy Black: Is this like real?

511
00:21:17,679 –> 00:21:26,559
Randy Black: But what separated him and really all the great players that I’ve coached have been around teams is their attention to detail.

512
00:21:27,019 –> 00:21:29,019
Randy Black: And we’ll talk about detail right here.

513
00:21:29,019 –> 00:21:29,820
Randy Black: Yeah.

514
00:21:29,820 –> 00:21:30,620
Randy Black: Okay?

515
00:21:30,860 –> 00:21:32,779
Randy Black: Gotta pay attention to the little thing.

516
00:21:33,340 –> 00:21:37,820
Randy Black: Because if you don’t pay attention to the little things, don’t worry about the big thing.

517
00:21:37,820 –> 00:21:38,380
Randy Black: Yeah.

518
00:21:38,700 –> 00:21:41,179
Randy Black: And the best things in life.

519
00:21:41,679 –> 00:21:44,080
Randy Black: They’re not things.

520
00:21:44,080 –> 00:21:45,200
Randy Black: That’s what I say.

521
00:21:45,200 –> 00:21:45,360
Randy Black: Yeah.

522
00:21:45,440 –> 00:21:46,240
Randy Black: They’re not things.

523
00:21:46,240 –> 00:21:48,799
Randy Black: But yeah, Michael Jordan, how many times has he missed?

524
00:21:48,799 –> 00:21:50,320
Randy Black: But he wasn’t afraid to what?

525
00:21:51,760 –> 00:21:52,320
Coach Jim Clayton: And go for the next one.

526
00:21:52,559 –> 00:21:56,159
Randy Black: And so when he got cut off his freshman team, Langley High School.

527
00:21:55,900 –> 00:22:04,060
Randy Black: Instead of going home with his mom blaming the coach, calling the coach, setting up at me, he says, well, if you want to make his team bad enough, you’re just gonna have to go work harder.

528
00:22:04,060 –> 00:22:04,460
Randy Black: Mm-hmm

529
00:22:05,740 –> 00:22:08,860
Randy Black: And uh obviously um It worked out pretty well.

530
00:22:08,860 –> 00:22:09,900
Randy Black: Uh he did.

531
00:22:09,900 –> 00:22:10,620
Randy Black: Worked out pretty well.

532
00:22:11,020 –> 00:22:18,220
Randy Black: Like I said, I mean the the the the experiences I’ve been to dinner with him, I’ve been I you know, it it’s just i i it

533
00:22:18,740 –> 00:22:29,860
Randy Black: But but watching him and listening him talk and watching him work out, then seeing him in games, because I saw him play in games when I was doing some stuff with the New Jersey Nets, now Brooklyn Nets.

534
00:22:29,860 –> 00:22:30,500
Randy Black: They played the Bulls.

535
00:22:30,500 –> 00:22:32,180
Randy Black: I was sitting around on the bench

536
00:22:31,880 –> 00:22:33,480
Randy Black: I saw all kinds of stuff.

537
00:22:33,480 –> 00:22:36,280
Randy Black: But again, they all bounced back.

538
00:22:36,840 –> 00:22:39,480
Randy Black: Those guys, now you talk about tough skin

539
00:22:40,120 –> 00:22:42,440
Randy Black: They don’t watch that crap on TV.

540
00:22:42,920 –> 00:22:46,200
Randy Black: They don’t listen to what those people say about social media.

541
00:22:46,200 –> 00:22:48,200
Randy Black: They’re laughing all the way to the bank.

542
00:22:48,760 –> 00:22:52,120
Randy Black: They ain’t here sending all the bit who cares what those people say.

543
00:22:52,120 –> 00:22:52,520
Randy Black: Right.

544
00:22:52,520 –> 00:22:55,000
Randy Black: They do not control what he does.

545
00:22:55,000 –> 00:22:55,640
Randy Black: Yeah.

546
00:22:55,640 –> 00:22:58,520
Randy Black: And just so you can’t let other people control you.

547
00:22:58,919 –> 00:23:00,679
Randy Black: They’re not your steering mechanism.

548
00:23:00,679 –> 00:23:01,880
Randy Black: You got your own

549
00:23:01,660 –> 00:23:04,780
Randy Black: Steering wheel, baby, and it’s up to you to keep your car between the line.

550
00:23:04,780 –> 00:23:05,340
Randy Black: Yeah.

551
00:23:05,340 –> 00:23:08,700
Randy Black: And that’s what people don’t do enough of.

552
00:23:08,700 –> 00:23:10,460
Coach Jim Clayton: There’s there’s always

553
00:23:11,000 –> 00:23:15,320
Coach Jim Clayton: in in in life stuff that kind of gets in the way a little bit.

554
00:23:15,320 –> 00:23:17,559
Coach Jim Clayton: Gets in the way of of resilience.

555
00:23:17,559 –> 00:23:20,280
Coach Jim Clayton: So what what might be some of the like common

556
00:23:20,640 –> 00:23:27,520
Coach Jim Clayton: Kind of barriers we see that might prevent someone from from being resilient or even developing resilience.

557
00:23:27,760 –> 00:23:32,240
Randy Black: I would say the first thing, the biggest thing, self-doubt.

558
00:23:33,220 –> 00:23:34,980
Randy Black: Because you doubt yourself.

559
00:23:35,620 –> 00:23:38,340
Randy Black: When you doubt yourself, then you start to crumble.

560
00:23:38,340 –> 00:23:39,060
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

561
00:23:39,060 –> 00:23:40,820
Randy Black: So you can’t doubt yourself.

562
00:23:40,820 –> 00:23:42,580
Randy Black: You gotta know what you’re capable of doing.

563
00:23:42,580 –> 00:23:44,020
Randy Black: Can’t be afraid to do it.

564
00:23:44,020 –> 00:23:44,340
Randy Black: Okay

565
00:23:45,120 –> 00:23:46,880
Randy Black: And you gotta go do it.

566
00:23:46,880 –> 00:23:47,520
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

567
00:23:47,520 –> 00:23:55,120
Randy Black: Well, to bear g have strong that strong gut, you know, just that that confidence, okay

568
00:23:55,740 –> 00:23:57,660
Randy Black: You gotta go through some tougher times.

569
00:23:57,660 –> 00:24:01,580
Randy Black: Now all of you, ever everybody’s listening, has had great times where they’ve been very successful.

570
00:24:01,580 –> 00:24:02,220
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

571
00:24:02,220 –> 00:24:07,020
Randy Black: So sometimes you gotta go back to that that moment and you gotta revisit it.

572
00:24:07,420 –> 00:24:10,140
Randy Black: What did I do to get to that point?

573
00:24:09,820 –> 00:24:10,540
Randy Black: Okay?

574
00:24:10,540 –> 00:24:12,140
Randy Black: Well I did this.

575
00:24:12,140 –> 00:24:14,220
Randy Black: Well can you do that right now?

576
00:24:14,220 –> 00:24:15,180
Randy Black: Absolutely.

577
00:24:15,820 –> 00:24:16,700
Randy Black: Absolutely.

578
00:24:16,700 –> 00:24:18,220
Randy Black: So self doubt’s a big one.

579
00:24:18,220 –> 00:24:20,380
Randy Black: Don’t don’t doubt yourself, okay?

580
00:24:20,380 –> 00:24:20,780
Randy Black: Okay?

581
00:24:20,780 –> 00:24:21,740
Randy Black: The other one is

582
00:24:22,040 –> 00:24:23,560
Randy Black: Don’t listen to others.

583
00:24:23,560 –> 00:24:24,200
Randy Black: Okay.

584
00:24:24,200 –> 00:24:29,960
Randy Black: Oh don’t listen to people that are going to give you tell you exactly what you want to hear.

585
00:24:30,680 –> 00:24:32,120
Randy Black: I gonna tell you what you want to hear.

586
00:24:32,120 –> 00:24:33,640
Randy Black: I’m gonna tell you what you need to hear

587
00:24:34,280 –> 00:24:37,000
Randy Black: So I I did a video the other day I saw it pop up.

588
00:24:37,000 –> 00:24:40,920
Randy Black: Oh, it says, I don’t look at you the way you are.

589
00:24:40,920 –> 00:24:43,240
Randy Black: I look at you the way you could be.

590
00:24:44,460 –> 00:24:45,980
Randy Black: That’s just me.

591
00:24:45,980 –> 00:24:49,260
Randy Black: So I’m not going to take average or below average.

592
00:24:49,260 –> 00:24:50,780
Randy Black: I’m not going to take that out of you.

593
00:24:50,780 –> 00:24:52,860
Randy Black: Because I know you got better than that in you.

594
00:24:52,860 –> 00:24:55,260
Randy Black: Well see, that’s a teacher

595
00:24:55,320 –> 00:25:00,920
Randy Black: and a coach, and a mentor, and a motivator that knows how to do that.

596
00:25:00,920 –> 00:25:03,320
Randy Black: The majority of people do not know how to do that.

597
00:25:03,320 –> 00:25:04,440
Randy Black: Yeah.

598
00:25:04,440 –> 00:25:08,680
Randy Black: They don’t want to know how to do that because they like the pity part.

599
00:25:09,160 –> 00:25:14,200
Randy Black: And when you’re in when you’re in a pity party and all that stuff, what do they always do?

600
00:25:14,520 –> 00:25:17,000
Randy Black: It’s always somebody else’s fault.

601
00:25:17,400 –> 00:25:18,520
Randy Black: Always putting the blame elsewhere.

602
00:25:18,760 –> 00:25:19,559
Randy Black: Oh yeah.

603
00:25:20,120 –> 00:25:22,039
Randy Black: Negative on that big daddy.

604
00:25:22,039 –> 00:25:23,080
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

605
00:25:22,940 –> 00:25:24,220
Randy Black: You know whose fault it is?

606
00:25:24,380 –> 00:25:27,500
Randy Black: The person that you brush your teeth with every night staring back from the mirror.

607
00:25:27,500 –> 00:25:28,059
Coach Jim Clayton: Yep.

608
00:25:28,059 –> 00:25:29,340
Randy Black: That’s you.

609
00:25:29,340 –> 00:25:30,139
Randy Black: Okay?

610
00:25:30,139 –> 00:25:33,899
Randy Black: Now to get people to to do this and bounce back, oh except people.

611
00:25:33,899 –> 00:25:36,220
Randy Black: I told you earlier it’s called the law of the mirror

612
00:25:36,419 –> 00:25:37,940
Randy Black: People see what people do.

613
00:25:38,980 –> 00:25:41,780
Randy Black: So be the example.

614
00:25:41,780 –> 00:25:43,140
Randy Black: The positive example.

615
00:25:43,140 –> 00:25:43,860
Randy Black: Yeah.

616
00:25:43,860 –> 00:25:47,299
Randy Black: Now people that are on the other side of that, they can’t stand here.

617
00:25:47,519 –> 00:25:48,880
Randy Black: But you know what I’ll say?

618
00:25:48,880 –> 00:25:49,760
Randy Black: Two words.

619
00:25:49,760 –> 00:25:51,200
Randy Black: Who cares?

620
00:25:51,200 –> 00:25:52,960
Randy Black: I ain’t worried about them.

621
00:25:52,960 –> 00:25:55,519
Randy Black: I’m not giving them one second of my thoughts.

622
00:25:55,519 –> 00:25:56,240
Randy Black: Yeah.

623
00:25:56,240 –> 00:25:57,919
Randy Black: I’m guarding my time

624
00:25:59,040 –> 00:26:01,680
Randy Black: And see, that’s that’s just how I look at.

625
00:26:01,680 –> 00:26:04,880
Randy Black: And those are probably the two b the biggest things to hold people back, I think.

626
00:26:04,880 –> 00:26:05,840
Coach Jim Clayton: There’s probably a lot more.

627
00:26:06,000 –> 00:26:10,640
Coach Jim Clayton: Do you think do you think sometimes it might be that people are just they’re taking on too much?

628
00:26:10,260 –> 00:26:11,539
Randy Black: Oh a hundred percent.

629
00:26:11,539 –> 00:26:15,220
Randy Black: Can’t be great at every can’t be great at anything if you try to do everything.

630
00:26:15,220 –> 00:26:16,660
Randy Black: Yeah.

631
00:26:16,660 –> 00:26:19,140
Randy Black: So you gotta figure out what you’re gifted

632
00:26:19,740 –> 00:26:21,500
Randy Black: So I told this to my class one time.

633
00:26:21,740 –> 00:26:25,100
Randy Black: One of the last things I said to him when I was retired.

634
00:26:25,100 –> 00:26:27,900
Randy Black: I said, all of you in this room have a gift

635
00:26:28,720 –> 00:26:34,000
Randy Black: You have a special thing about you that nobody else is ever going to have.

636
00:26:34,000 –> 00:26:35,440
Randy Black: Well, God raises his hand.

637
00:26:35,840 –> 00:26:37,760
Randy Black: Coach, yeah, I hear you.

638
00:26:38,120 –> 00:26:40,440
Randy Black: Well how do I know what mine is?

639
00:26:40,440 –> 00:26:42,120
Randy Black: Great quest.

640
00:26:42,360 –> 00:26:43,800
Randy Black: Great question.

641
00:26:43,800 –> 00:26:45,160
Randy Black: I said, well here’s how you know.

642
00:26:45,160 –> 00:26:45,960
Randy Black: You ready?

643
00:26:45,960 –> 00:26:46,920
Randy Black: Pretty simple

644
00:26:47,220 –> 00:26:48,900
Randy Black: Ask me this question.

645
00:26:48,900 –> 00:26:50,660
Randy Black: What are you good at?

646
00:26:50,660 –> 00:26:52,820
Randy Black: That requires not much effort.

647
00:26:52,820 –> 00:26:56,660
Randy Black: Well, I’m good at tearing down an engine.

648
00:26:56,660 –> 00:26:57,620
Randy Black: Cool.

649
00:26:57,620 –> 00:26:58,420
Randy Black: Okay.

650
00:26:58,919 –> 00:27:00,919
Randy Black: I could do it blindfold.

00:30:49,919 –> 00:30:51,280
Randy Black: I never even thought about that.

747
00:30:51,360 –> 00:30:53,840
Randy Black: So well go home and figure that out on your own.

748
00:30:53,840 –> 00:30:55,039

Randy Black: And it might be more than one thing.

751
00:30:59,820 –> 00:31:01,980
Randy Black: Then you have to decide what it is.

752
00:31:01,980 –> 00:31:05,980
Randy Black: Or maybe you could take that one thing and branch it into multiple things.

753
00:31:05,980 –> 00:31:07,020
Randy Black: Whatever.

754
00:31:07,020 –> 00:31:08,780
Randy Black: But we all have them.

755
00:31:08,780 –> 00:31:10,060
Randy Black: And sadly.

756
00:31:10,780 –> 00:31:19,180
Randy Black: We don’t take the time to to figure out what it is and we look back and go, man, I wish I woulda, I wish I woulda, I wish I woulda.

757
00:31:19,420 –> 00:31:23,100
Randy Black: I said, Well you’re captain of the coulda, woulda, and shouldn’t team

759
00:31:25,960 –> 00:31:27,000
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

760
00:31:27,000 –> 00:31:35,880
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah, I I kinda you know, I look at this as we talk about it, and it’s kind of the idea that resilience, it’s it’s it isn’t just about

761
00:31:36,500 –> 00:31:37,940
Coach Jim Clayton: pushing harder.

762
00:31:37,940 –> 00:31:40,820
Coach Jim Clayton: It’s more about, you know, sometimes you gotta slow down.

763
00:31:40,820 –> 00:31:41,860
Coach Jim Clayton: We gotta recover.

764
00:31:42,340 –> 00:31:43,940
Coach Jim Clayton: You gotta get clear of everything.

765
00:31:43,940 –> 00:31:44,580

Coach Jim Clayton: You’re right.

770
00:31:49,000 –> 00:31:49,640
Coach Jim Clayton: Patience.

771
00:31:49,880 –> 00:31:57,160
Coach Jim Clayton: And it’s you know, and that’s it goes back to what we’ve talked about before with the idea of instant gratification that we see today in our society.

772
00:31:57,160 –> 00:31:59,160
Coach Jim Clayton: So our culture today

773
00:31:59,880 –> 00:32:02,760
Coach Jim Clayton: discourages real resilience.

774
00:32:03,240 –> 00:32:07,480
Coach Jim Clayton: Because you’re not giv you you’re not given that opportunity to bounce back from things.

775
00:32:07,480 –> 00:32:10,040
Coach Jim Clayton: It immediately hits you and it’s time to move on to the next

776
00:32:10,060 –> 00:32:12,140

00:32:17,580 –> 00:32:19,100
Randy Black: Oh you’re a hundred percent correct.

781
00:32:19,100 –> 00:32:21,260
Randy Black: You’re a hundred percent correct because

782
00:32:21,940 –> 00:32:24,659
Randy Black: The greatest things in life don’t happen overnight.

783
00:32:24,659 –> 00:32:25,700
Randy Black: Right.

784
00:32:25,700 –> 00:32:30,100
Randy Black: And the the world we’re in is hit the button, get what you want.

785
00:32:30,100 –> 00:32:30,500
Randy Black: Uh-huh.

786
00:32:30,580 –> 00:32:32,419
Randy Black: Hit the button, get what you want.

787
00:32:32,519 –> 00:32:39,000
Randy Black: But you see, it doesn’t make a difference what you do, whether you get what here’s my bottom line to it.

788
00:32:39,000 –> 00:32:39,960
Randy Black: I don’t care what you do

789
00:32:41,300 –> 00:32:43,060

790
00:32:43,380 –> 00:32:44,340

Randy Black: It’s not about me.

797
00:32:56,220 –> 00:32:57,899
Randy Black: It’s about what we can do for others.

00:32:57,899 –> 00:32:58,620
Randy Black: Exactly.

799
00:32:58,620 –> 00:32:59,899

Coach Jim Clayton: Exactly.

812
00:33:14,920 –> 00:33:19,800
Randy Black: And if you do it all by yourself and you’re less successful, who do you got to share it with?

813
00:33:19,800 –> 00:33:20,760
Randy Black: Nobody.

814
00:33:20,760 –> 00:33:21,560
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

815
00:33:21,560 –> 00:33:23,960
Randy Black: Well, that ain’t fun.

816
00:33:24,160 –> 00:33:25,520
Randy Black: And what’s every day?

817
00:33:25,520 –> 00:33:26,640
Randy Black: Every day should be fun.

818
00:33:26,640 –> 00:33:27,760
Randy Black: I have fun every day.

819
00:33:27,760 –> 00:33:31,280
Randy Black: Now my definition of fun might not be your definition of fun.

820
00:33:31,280 –> 00:33:31,440
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

821
00:33:31,520 –> 00:33:34,080
Randy Black: But it doesn’t matter because I’m not you and you’re not me

822
00:33:34,679 –> 00:33:36,200
Randy Black: But I have fun every day.

823
00:33:36,200 –> 00:33:37,960
Randy Black: I did something fun every day.

824
00:33:37,960 –> 00:33:39,480
Randy Black: You know, I went to the hospital today.

825
00:33:39,480 –> 00:33:41,000

00:33:44,460 –> 00:33:48,780
Randy Black: One of the little ladies that did my thing, she’s from Sis and Feel, oh she’s just a nice and sweetheart.

829
00:33:48,780 –> 00:33:50,380
Randy Black: So I’ve seen you in a couple years, you know.

830
00:33:50,380 –> 00:33:51,740
Randy Black: I said, Well, that’s a good thing, ain’t it?

831
00:33:51,820 –> 00:33:53,580
Randy Black: She says, Well, yeah.

832
00:33:53,660 –> 00:33:58,220
Randy Black: So we laughed, carried on, you know, I mean I mean it was just how you deal with people.

833
00:33:58,220 –> 00:33:59,020
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

834
00:33:59,440 –> 00:34:05,200
Randy Black: And uh, you know, when you make them feel important, it’s a whole nother issue.

835
00:34:05,200 –> 00:34:06,000
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

836
00:34:06,000 –> 00:34:06,880
Coach Jim Clayton: And people don’t do that.

837
00:34:07,840 –> 00:34:10,240
Coach Jim Clayton: It changes the mindset of the people around you.

838
00:34:10,240 –> 00:34:11,200
Randy Black: That’s it.

839
00:34:11,200 –> 00:34:12,400
Randy Black: Mindset.

840
00:34:12,620 –> 00:34:14,060
Randy Black: What’s that?

841
00:34:14,060 –> 00:34:15,900
Randy Black: That’s the second part of what?

842
00:34:15,900 –> 00:34:17,020
Randy Black: A and bam.

843
00:34:17,020 –> 00:34:17,420

Randy Black: It’s all about that.

847
00:34:20,300 –> 00:34:21,820
Randy Black: Open or closed.

848
00:34:21,820 –> 00:34:23,420
Randy Black: It’s gonna be open or closed.

849
00:34:23,420 –> 00:34:23,740
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah

850
00:34:24,679 –> 00:34:29,639

851
00:34:29,639 –> 00:34:30,359
Coach Jim Clayton: Yes.

852
00:34:30,359 –> 00:34:32,200
Randy Black: I have the opposite

853
00:34:32,080 –> 00:34:33,440
Randy Black: ‘Cause I’m a little weirder.

854
00:34:33,440 –> 00:34:34,000
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

860
00:34:43,440 –> 00:34:50,639
Randy Black: Uh uh I uh you know, I I didn’t say I must I might like parts of it, I might not like every piece of it, uh but I’ll damn it

861
00:34:50,899 –> 00:34:52,020
Randy Black: That’s all a game of it.

862
00:34:52,179 –> 00:34:53,940
Randy Black: Resilience is like adaptability.

863
00:34:53,940 –> 00:34:54,419
Coach Jim Clayton: Mm-hmm.

864
00:34:54,419 –> 00:34:56,179

00:34:56,179 –> 00:34:56,500
Randy Black: Yeah.

866
00:34:56,500 –> 00:34:58,740
Randy Black: And you learn ’em through trial and error.

867
00:34:58,740 –> 00:34:59,380
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

868
00:34:59,799 –> 00:35:09,480

871
00:35:18,799 –> 00:35:24,720
Coach Jim Clayton: And that’s that you know it kind of takes us on with the idea of what do the p mentally strong people, these people who have

872
00:35:25,220 –> 00:35:28,579
Coach Jim Clayton: taking the time to to learn and be resilient.

873
00:35:28,579 –> 00:35:31,859
Coach Jim Clayton: What what you know what is it that they do that’s so different?

874
00:35:31,859 –> 00:35:36,819
Coach Jim Clayton: And when I looked through your notes and things as I was preparing stuff, you listed some habits there

875
00:35:37,040 –> 00:35:39,520
Coach Jim Clayton: of resilience that I thought were pretty interesting.

876
00:35:39,520 –> 00:35:42,640
Coach Jim Clayton: And that first one is master the pause.

877
00:35:42,640 –> 00:35:43,680
Coach Jim Clayton: What do you mean by that?

878
00:35:43,680 –> 00:35:46,560
Randy Black: Well, sometimes everybody wants to hurry into everything.

879
00:35:47,299 –> 00:35:52,180
Randy Black: Sometimes just take a deep breath, pause, sit back, and absorb it.

880
00:35:52,579 –> 00:35:54,740
Randy Black: See when you absorb stuff

881
00:35:54,859 –> 00:35:57,820
Randy Black: You kind of get into more of a self-reflection.

882
00:35:57,820 –> 00:35:58,300
Randy Black: Yeah.

883
00:35:58,300 –> 00:35:59,820
Randy Black: So you think it you see it.

884
00:35:59,820 –> 00:36:01,420
Randy Black: It’s visualization.

885
00:36:01,420 –> 00:36:03,420
Randy Black: See it happening before it happens.

886
00:36:03,500 –> 00:36:07,180
Randy Black: So what I always do is I say, give me the visual

887
00:36:07,420 –> 00:36:09,660
Randy Black: of the best possible outcome.

888
00:36:10,060 –> 00:36:12,300
Randy Black: And I get this visual in my head.

889
00:36:12,300 –> 00:36:14,220
Randy Black: So that’s pretty nice.

890
00:36:14,220 –> 00:36:17,660
Randy Black: Give me the visual of the worst.

891
00:36:17,640 –> 00:36:19,000
Randy Black: possible outcome.

892
00:36:19,000 –> 00:36:19,480
Randy Black: Yeah.

893
00:36:19,480 –> 00:36:20,279
Randy Black: Yeah.

894
00:36:20,599 –> 00:36:22,279
Randy Black: Don’t like the way that looks.

895
00:36:22,279 –> 00:36:23,960
Randy Black: I ain’t liking that one.

896
00:36:23,960 –> 00:36:24,920
Randy Black: Okay.

897
00:36:24,920 –> 00:36:25,559
Randy Black: And so

898
00:36:25,700 –> 00:36:34,339
Randy Black: You know when you just step back and take a breath, mm-hmm instead of jumping into everything real quick, and then you’re in a hurry and you don’t think it through, you know what I mean?

899
00:36:34,339 –> 00:36:34,660
Randy Black: And

900
00:36:34,880 –> 00:36:36,800
Randy Black: Because no thinketh, no doeth.

901
00:36:36,800 –> 00:36:37,200
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

902
00:36:37,200 –> 00:36:38,240
Randy Black: It’s all thinking.

903
00:36:38,880 –> 00:36:44,240
Randy Black: And so everybody today is in rush, rush, rush, hurry, hurry, hurry, get there faster.

904
00:36:44,240 –> 00:36:48,960
Randy Black: Well, if you want to get there faster, why don’t you just start out a little sooner?

905
00:36:48,220 –> 00:36:48,940
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

906
00:36:48,940 –> 00:36:50,700
Coach Jim Clayton: I say that all the time.

907
00:36:50,700 –> 00:36:56,700
Coach Jim Clayton: Oh yes, it’s kind of dri I’m driving and people are going 90 miles an hour on the interstate and I’m like, leave earlier.

908
00:36:56,700 –> 00:36:58,380
Coach Jim Clayton: Seriously, if you’re in that big of a hurry.

909
00:36:58,380 –> 00:36:59,020
Randy Black: Oh my gosh.

910
00:36:59,020 –> 00:37:01,020
Randy Black: And you know the old thing Murphy’s low.

911
00:37:01,020 –> 00:37:01,500
Randy Black: Mm-hmm

912
00:37:01,760 –> 00:37:04,960
Randy Black: When what can go wrong will go wrong when you’re trying to press.

913
00:37:04,960 –> 00:37:05,440
Randy Black: Yep.

914
00:37:05,440 –> 00:37:05,760
Randy Black: Okay?

915
00:37:05,760 –> 00:37:07,440
Randy Black: Because you didn’t prepare, you didn’t start out.

916
00:37:07,440 –> 00:37:08,320
Randy Black: You weren’t on time.

917
00:37:08,320 –> 00:37:08,960
Randy Black: Uh-huh.

918
00:37:08,960 –> 00:37:13,760
Randy Black: And time, you know what I mean, you can speed it up, slow it down, do whatever

919
00:37:13,500 –> 00:37:18,140
Randy Black: You get there faster, you pass that guy by the next red light, he’s right there with you.

920
00:37:18,140 –> 00:37:18,860
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

921
00:37:20,300 –> 00:37:23,740
Randy Black: But but see that’s just the culture that we live in right there.

922
00:37:24,200 –> 00:37:29,880
Randy Black: And people don’t know how to sit back, reflect, pause, enjoy the moment.

923
00:37:30,120 –> 00:37:30,360
Randy Black: Yeah.

924
00:37:31,000 –> 00:37:34,600
Coach Jim Clayton: And that goes into the next habit you’ve got listed there.

925
00:37:34,359 –> 00:37:42,200
Coach Jim Clayton: with the idea of and I’ll let you kinda kinda explain what this means to embrace solitude.

926
00:37:42,200 –> 00:37:44,599
Randy Black: Yeah, sometimes you gotta go get by yourself

927
00:37:45,120 –> 00:37:46,560
Randy Black: You gotta have me time.

928
00:37:47,120 –> 00:37:47,920
Randy Black: Private time.

929
00:37:48,400 –> 00:37:48,800
Randy Black: Okay?

930
00:37:48,800 –> 00:37:51,040
Randy Black: And you got that’s where you reflect.

931
00:37:51,040 –> 00:37:53,360
Randy Black: That’s where I write things down.

932
00:37:53,700 –> 00:37:54,420
Randy Black: Okay.

933
00:37:54,420 –> 00:37:55,860
Randy Black: Now that comes to me.

934
00:37:55,860 –> 00:37:58,900
Randy Black: I do it every day at almost the same time.

935
00:37:58,900 –> 00:37:59,540
Randy Black: Yeah.

936
00:37:59,540 –> 00:38:01,540
Randy Black: Sometimes longer than others.

937
00:38:01,540 –> 00:38:03,700
Randy Black: And I always write stuff down.

938
00:38:03,920 –> 00:38:05,680
Randy Black: Sometimes I’m longer on it.

939
00:38:05,680 –> 00:38:06,000
Randy Black: Yeah.

940
00:38:06,000 –> 00:38:07,840
Randy Black: Because it’s hitting harder.

941
00:38:07,840 –> 00:38:11,760
Coach Jim Clayton: See that and you know for me, like w when when those ideas hit me

942
00:38:11,500 –> 00:38:16,860
Coach Jim Clayton: And like like I’m working on a I’m working on a podcast and and plans for things and those ideas hit me.

943
00:38:16,860 –> 00:38:23,740
Coach Jim Clayton: My place to do my notes is I take my ideas, I throw them into a tool like ChatGPT.

944
00:38:23,859 –> 00:38:28,500
Coach Jim Clayton: And I use it to collect those ideas and start building things and crafting it together.

945
00:38:28,500 –> 00:38:34,820
Coach Jim Clayton: And it’s, you know, it’s but it’s my time on my own taking those concepts that I

946
00:38:35,240 –> 00:38:41,320
Coach Jim Clayton: getting in my brain those those ideas I want to talk about, the things I want to share, and then building it up from that.

947
00:38:41,560 –> 00:38:49,480
Randy Black: And when you when you’re thinking about that, I’m I’m not that technologically advanced on the chat GPT stuff, but I’m hoping one day

948
00:38:49,100 –> 00:38:51,100
Randy Black: You’re going to teach me how to do that better.

949
00:38:51,100 –> 00:38:52,780
Randy Black: Because it’ll probably make my life easier.

950
00:38:52,780 –> 00:38:57,660
Randy Black: But my system, you know, my always thing is, uh, I write everything down.

951
00:38:58,900 –> 00:39:03,380
Randy Black: If you if you don’t if you if you don’t know it, you can’t write it down.

952
00:39:03,380 –> 00:39:04,180
Randy Black: Yeah.

953
00:39:04,340 –> 00:39:05,140
Randy Black: Try to write it down.

954
00:39:05,140 –> 00:39:06,340
Randy Black: It helps me remember.

955
00:39:06,820 –> 00:39:08,900
Randy Black: Now sometimes I can’t read my notes.

956
00:39:08,900 –> 00:39:10,260
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

957
00:39:10,260 –> 00:39:14,500
Randy Black: But, you know, somebody said, well, you should just record it

958
00:39:14,840 –> 00:39:16,440
Randy Black: Well I probably should.

959
00:39:16,440 –> 00:39:18,280
Randy Black: But I still what?

960
00:39:18,280 –> 00:39:22,200
Randy Black: I got stocks and stocks and stocks and pages and pages and pages pages.

961
00:39:22,200 –> 00:39:23,080
Randy Black: Notes everywhere.

962
00:39:23,400 –> 00:39:25,320
Randy Black: When I’m gone, somebody goes through those notes.

963
00:39:25,320 –> 00:39:27,080
Randy Black: It’s hard to tell them what they’ll find

964
00:39:27,660 –> 00:39:28,620
Randy Black: Hard telling.

965
00:39:28,620 –> 00:39:33,500
Randy Black: You know, I looked at something the other day I wrote ten years ago, I go, Oh man, I remember writing that.

966
00:39:33,500 –> 00:39:33,980
Randy Black: Yeah.

967
00:39:33,980 –> 00:39:36,300
Randy Black: But I let ten years go by and I’ve never used it again.

968
00:39:36,460 –> 00:39:37,020
Randy Black: Mrs Mrs.

969
00:39:37,020 –> 00:39:38,860
Coach Jim Clayton: Clayton and the kids are gonna have fun going through this stuff.

970
00:39:39,020 –> 00:39:39,820

00:39:39,820 –> 00:39:42,060
Coach Jim Clayton: Well I’ll tell you I’ll tell you we’ll go through it.

Randy Black: Now she’ll go through piece by piece and she never throws nothing away.

974
00:39:48,299 –> 00:39:48,700
Coach Jim Clayton: Mm-hmm.

975
00:39:48,700 –> 00:39:52,539
Coach Jim Clayton: She’ll collect you told me she’s she’s the one that’s pushed on you to

976
00:39:52,740 –> 00:39:54,100

1013
00:41:14,760 –> 00:41:21,720
Coach Jim Clayton: this instant gratification and getting certain things is the idea that you don’t chase approval.

1076
00:43:30,900 –> 00:43:31,940

1077
00:43:31,940 –> 00:43:33,780
Randy Black: I told him about my camera set this week.

1081
00:43:45,880 –> 00:43:46,279
Randy Black: Yeah.

1082
00:43:46,279 –> 00:43:48,279
Randy Black: And by the way, what day’s that on?

1083
00:43:48,279 –> 00:43:49,960
Randy Black: They do it.

1084
00:43:49,960 –> 00:43:57,000
Randy Black: But you know, sometimes when I’m talking to those little guys, you know, high school, middle school, they look at you like

1085
00:43:57,140 –> 00:44:05,299
Randy Black: You’re speaking like a foreign language like oh my god they never heard this stuff and I just go You gotta be kidding me

00:44:15,140 –> 00:44:16,420
Coach Jim Clayton: the first time I met you.

1091
00:44:16,420 –> 00:44:18,980
Coach Jim Clayton: And that’s kind of the way I, you know, with what you were saying.

1092
00:44:18,980 –> 00:44:24,420
Coach Jim Clayton: Like I can’t remember exactly what you were saying, but the impression I got was, I’ve never heard some of this stuff before.

1093
00:44:24,420 –> 00:44:26,339
Randy Black: Well here’s the thing on that.

1094
00:44:26,580 –> 00:44:29,460
Randy Black: People won’t always remember what you say.

1095
00:44:29,460 –> 00:44:30,020
Coach Jim Clayton: Mm-hmm.

1096
00:44:30,020 –> 00:44:33,300
Randy Black: But they’ll always remember the way you make people.

1097
00:44:33,300 –> 00:44:34,100
Coach Jim Clayton: Exactly.

1098
00:44:34,100 –> 00:44:34,580
Randy Black: Bam.

1099
00:44:34,660 –> 00:44:38,660
Randy Black: So I’m just telling you, that is the golden knock.

1100
00:44:38,660 –> 00:44:40,260
Coach Jim Clayton: I mean, I I mean I mean look at it.

1101
00:44:40,260 –> 00:44:40,900
Coach Jim Clayton: That was

1102
00:44:41,040 –> 00:44:43,280
Coach Jim Clayton: you know, twenty years ago or thirty years ago.

1103
00:44:43,280 –> 00:44:43,840
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

1104
00:44:43,840 –> 00:44:49,440
Coach Jim Clayton: And it had an impression on me that when I got the chance to start to get to know you

1105
00:44:49,940 –> 00:44:54,260
Coach Jim Clayton: I was excited because I remembered how it made me feel hearing you speak.

1106
00:44:54,260 –> 00:44:56,740
Randy Black: And the truth is, I don’t remember what I said either.

1107
00:44:56,740 –> 00:44:57,700
Randy Black: Yeah.

1108
00:44:57,700 –> 00:44:58,020
Randy Black: But

1109
00:44:58,260 –> 00:44:59,060
Randy Black: Guess what?

1110
00:44:59,060 –> 00:45:00,740
Randy Black: I got it in my notes somewhere.

1111
00:45:00,740 –> 00:45:02,740
Randy Black: It’s probably and it’s there because I write everything.

1112
00:45:02,900 –> 00:45:06,260
Randy Black: I don’t ever go in with something without preparation, what I’m going to talk about

1113
00:45:06,680 –> 00:45:07,640
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

1114
00:45:07,640 –> 00:45:08,839
Randy Black: I always have it down.

1115
00:45:09,160 –> 00:45:10,839

1116
00:45:10,839 –> 00:45:11,720
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

1117
00:45:11,720 –> 00:45:13,160
Randy Black: Knowing I’m prepared.

1118
00:45:13,160 –> 00:45:15,320
Coach Jim Clayton: So we got two more habits on your list.

1119
00:45:15,320 –> 00:45:16,680
Coach Jim Clayton: And this next one.

1120
00:45:16,859 –> 00:45:24,220
Coach Jim Clayton: Like when I read your heading for this head for this one, it kind of hit me for a second because I was like, wait, what now?

1121
00:45:24,220 –> 00:45:28,140
Coach Jim Clayton: And it’s use pain as fuel.

1122
00:45:28,140 –> 00:45:29,500
Randy Black: Oh, yes.

1123
00:45:29,740 –> 00:45:30,940
Randy Black: No pain, no gain.

1124
00:45:30,940 –> 00:45:31,900
Randy Black: You’ve heard that right?

1125
00:45:32,300 –> 00:45:33,820
Randy Black: So how does that make you feel?

1126
00:45:33,820 –> 00:45:36,140
Randy Black: Pain can be described in a lot of ways.

1127
00:45:36,140 –> 00:45:37,500
Randy Black: Like a physical

1128
00:45:37,740 –> 00:45:42,620
Randy Black: Like you feel something physically in your gut, your arm, your leg, whatever.

1129
00:45:42,620 –> 00:45:46,300
Randy Black: Or it could be like a pain in the You know what that is.

00:45:46,620 –> 00:45:48,460
Randy Black: Okay, two different types of pain

1132
00:45:48,720 –> 00:45:55,039
Randy Black: Alright, so you know if it’s a pain, if it’s a pain like a hurting pain, something’s caused her.

1133
00:45:55,039 –> 00:45:56,640
Randy Black: There’s a root cause to everything.

1134
00:45:56,880 –> 00:45:58,960
Randy Black: I don’t care what you do, something’s caused her.

1135
00:45:58,960 –> 00:46:00,720
Randy Black: So you gotta figure out what it is

1136
00:46:01,040 –> 00:46:01,920
Randy Black: To stop it.

1137
00:46:02,320 –> 00:46:04,320
Randy Black: You don’t figure out what it is, it’s gonna keep going.

1138
00:46:05,120 –> 00:46:07,600
Randy Black: And that’s the same thing with handling the pain.

1139
00:46:07,600 –> 00:46:09,040
Randy Black: Okay, stop it.

1140
00:46:09,040 –> 00:46:09,680
Randy Black: Okay?

1141
00:46:09,680 –> 00:46:10,480
Randy Black: Pain.

1142
00:46:10,480 –> 00:46:11,920
Randy Black: You know, sometimes

1143
00:46:12,320 –> 00:46:16,240
Randy Black: The room, all the room in America is at the top.

1144
00:46:16,320 –> 00:46:17,680
Randy Black: Sorry, at the bottom.

1145
00:46:17,680 –> 00:46:20,320
Randy Black: The bottom’s the most overcrowded place in America.

1146
00:46:20,240 –> 00:46:21,520
Randy Black: The room is at the top.

1147
00:46:21,520 –> 00:46:23,840
Randy Black: And to get there, you gotta take steps.

1148
00:46:24,160 –> 00:46:28,400
Randy Black: And when you have pain, the pain could be physical pain, could be mental pain.

1149
00:46:28,400 –> 00:46:28,960
Randy Black: I can’t do it.

1150
00:46:28,960 –> 00:46:29,680
Randy Black: This is too hard.

1151
00:46:30,800 –> 00:46:32,560
Randy Black: Comes back to that self-doubt again.

1152
00:46:32,560 –> 00:46:32,880
Randy Black: See

1153
00:46:32,960 –> 00:46:33,520
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

1154
00:46:33,520 –> 00:46:35,840
Randy Black: But you gotta say, man, I got this.

1155
00:46:35,840 –> 00:46:36,160
Randy Black: Yeah.

1156
00:46:36,160 –> 00:46:37,840
Randy Black: I gotta push through this.

1157
00:46:37,840 –> 00:46:39,200
Randy Black: I gotta get it done.

1158
00:46:39,200 –> 00:46:41,440
Randy Black: I gotta have a positive attitude.

1159
00:46:41,440 –> 00:46:47,760
Randy Black: I gotta be, I gotta, you know, I g I I got that my positive attitude, I gotta be intentional.

1160
00:46:47,760 –> 00:46:48,160
Randy Black: Yeah.

1161
00:46:48,160 –> 00:46:54,560
Randy Black: P-A-I, and then now, not tomorrow, now, P-A-I spells what?

1162
00:46:54,560 –> 00:46:56,160
Randy Black: Bang.

1163
00:46:55,820 –> 00:46:57,100
Randy Black: That’s how you get through it.

1164
00:46:58,380 –> 00:46:59,180
Randy Black: Gotta be now.

1165
00:46:59,180 –> 00:47:08,220
Coach Jim Clayton: I mean it’s it kind you know it’s it’s it’s like the idea of you you have to turn the breakdowns into breakthroughs.

1166
00:47:08,660 –> 00:47:17,700
Coach Jim Clayton: You know, it’s r the pe these people that we’re you know, people we’re kinda using here talking about, you know, it’s they grow where other people are quitting.

1167
00:47:17,700 –> 00:47:19,860
Coach Jim Clayton: They keep pushing, they keep going forward.

1168
00:47:20,180 –> 00:47:20,900
Randy Black: That kills me.

1169
00:47:20,900 –> 00:47:22,180
Randy Black: And here’s why.

1170
00:47:22,220 –> 00:47:25,500
Randy Black: Some of them are half inch from getting there.

1171
00:47:25,500 –> 00:47:26,059
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

1172
00:47:26,059 –> 00:47:30,460
Randy Black: That’s like running 28-mile marathon and getting to the finish line and stop it.

1173
00:47:31,660 –> 00:47:32,940
Randy Black: That ain’t happening.

1174
00:47:32,940 –> 00:47:33,420
Randy Black: Yeah.

1175
00:47:33,420 –> 00:47:35,180
Randy Black: I’m crossing that line

1176
00:47:35,960 –> 00:47:41,079
Randy Black: Because it that is most people can walk twenty eight straight line.

1177
00:47:41,079 –> 00:47:41,640
Randy Black: Yeah.

1178
00:47:41,640 –> 00:47:47,559
Randy Black: I couldn’t now, but I mean there was a time I could run it, but you know, it’s like you can do

1179
00:47:48,580 –> 00:47:50,500
Randy Black: Way more than you think you can.

1180
00:47:50,500 –> 00:47:55,300
Randy Black: So as a coach and a teacher sometimes, people when they’re younger, they’re getting pushed.

1181
00:47:55,300 –> 00:47:57,220
Randy Black: A hand was in your back.

1182
00:47:56,960 –> 00:48:00,320
Randy Black: So just about the time, you know what I mean, you thought she was gonna quit?

1183
00:48:00,320 –> 00:48:00,800
Randy Black: Uh huh.

1184
00:48:00,800 –> 00:48:02,800
Randy Black: We’re going a little bit further, Big Daddy.

1185
00:48:02,800 –> 00:48:03,360
Randy Black: Yeah.

1186
00:48:03,360 –> 00:48:05,680
Randy Black: But see, as you get older in life

1187
00:48:06,020 –> 00:48:09,140
Randy Black: That hand disappear.

1188
00:48:09,140 –> 00:48:10,500
Randy Black: Or it’s still there.

1189
00:48:10,500 –> 00:48:11,220
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

1190
00:48:11,220 –> 00:48:13,460
Randy Black: And people go, ah, that’s good enough.

1191
00:48:13,460 –> 00:48:14,820
Randy Black: I can’t stand up.

1192
00:48:14,820 –> 00:48:16,020
Randy Black: That means average.

1193
00:48:16,579 –> 00:48:17,540
Randy Black: Oh, that’s good enough.

1194
00:48:17,540 –> 00:48:19,140
Randy Black: I’ll get it tomorrow.

1195
00:48:19,140 –> 00:48:20,660
Randy Black: Well,

1196
00:48:20,420 –> 00:48:21,380
Randy Black: Huh.

1197
00:48:21,380 –> 00:48:23,460
Randy Black: Tomorrow’s not a day and guess what?

1198
00:48:23,460 –> 00:48:25,140
Randy Black: Tomorrow ain’t promised to nobody.

1199
00:48:25,140 –> 00:48:25,460
Randy Black: Yeah.

1200
00:48:25,460 –> 00:48:27,780
Randy Black: Maybe you will, maybe you won’t.

1201
00:48:27,780 –> 00:48:29,860
Randy Black: And you know we talked about this.

1202
00:48:29,840 –> 00:48:33,360
Randy Black: The longer you wait to put it off, the less likely it’s ever gonna happen.

1203
00:48:33,360 –> 00:48:33,680
Randy Black: Yeah.

1204
00:48:33,680 –> 00:48:40,720
Randy Black: It’s called the law of in of of intens of inten the law of int intentional intent.

1205
00:48:40,720 –> 00:48:44,560
Randy Black: So if you put you gotta be intentional to get get through it.

1206
00:48:44,520 –> 00:48:47,400
Randy Black: And if you don’t, it’s gonna stop.

1207
00:48:47,400 –> 00:48:48,920
Randy Black: Dead instructs.

1208
00:48:48,920 –> 00:48:49,560
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

1209
00:48:49,560 –> 00:48:51,000
Randy Black: That ain’t gonna happen.

1210
00:48:51,000 –> 00:48:51,720
Randy Black: Okay?

1211
00:48:51,720 –> 00:48:56,119
Randy Black: So all these things we’re talking about, you’ll notice how it always comes back to the same word.

1212
00:48:56,119 –> 00:48:56,680
Randy Black: Yep.

1213
00:48:56,680 –> 00:48:59,160
Randy Black: And if you control that length,

1214
00:48:59,700 –> 00:49:00,980
Randy Black: Between your ears.

1215
00:49:01,700 –> 00:49:03,859
Randy Black: You control everything out.

1216
00:49:03,859 –> 00:49:05,619
Randy Black: But it takes a while to get that.

1217
00:49:05,619 –> 00:49:06,420
Randy Black: Yeah.

1218
00:49:06,420 –> 00:49:11,539
Coach Jim Clayton: And it you know, and it the we we get to it and we got one last item on that list of habits, and it kind of

1219
00:49:12,040 –> 00:49:14,360
Coach Jim Clayton: It it goes with what you just said in a way.

1220
00:49:14,360 –> 00:49:17,640
Coach Jim Clayton: And it’s the idea of ruthless focus.

1221
00:49:17,640 –> 00:49:24,680
Coach Jim Clayton: And what you wrote on your notes, and what I’ve got jotted down on mine, is that you guard your time and your energy.

1222
00:49:24,680 –> 00:49:25,560
Randy Black: Oh my.

1223
00:49:25,740 –> 00:49:27,260
Randy Black: That is the biggest thing.

1224
00:49:27,260 –> 00:49:28,860
Randy Black: Oh man, is I’m blind.

1225
00:49:28,860 –> 00:49:35,500
Randy Black: Because people every day are trying to steal your energy and your time with worthless crap.

1226
00:49:35,500 –> 00:49:36,140
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah

1227
00:49:36,960 –> 00:49:39,200
Randy Black: And I’m not interested in it.

1228
00:49:39,200 –> 00:49:41,279
Randy Black: I’m not gonna let.

1229
00:49:41,279 –> 00:49:45,839
Randy Black: So you’ve got to learn how to guard against those types of distractions.

1230
00:49:45,839 –> 00:49:46,720
Coach Jim Clayton: Yes.

1231
00:49:46,720 –> 00:49:49,119
Randy Black: So I don’t allow them to happen.

1232
00:49:50,200 –> 00:49:51,799
Randy Black: So allow that.

1233
00:49:51,799 –> 00:49:55,319
Randy Black: If I let you in the door, kinda like playing tennis.

1234
00:49:55,480 –> 00:49:59,160
Randy Black: I hit you the ball and you hit it back.

1235
00:49:59,140 –> 00:50:02,740
Randy Black: And I hit it back and you hit it back, the point keeps going.

1236
00:50:02,740 –> 00:50:03,140
Randy Black: Yeah.

1237
00:50:03,140 –> 00:50:08,420
Randy Black: If I hit you the ball, or you hit me the ball and I don’t hit it back, the point’s over.

1238
00:50:08,420 –> 00:50:09,380
Randy Black: Yep.

1239
00:50:09,599 –> 00:50:11,280
Randy Black: That’s how you gotta deal with it.

1240
00:50:11,280 –> 00:50:12,079
Randy Black: Points over.

1241
00:50:12,079 –> 00:50:14,320
Randy Black: I’m not gonna go tit or tat with you right here.

1242
00:50:14,320 –> 00:50:16,560
Randy Black: Bang, bang, bang, back and forth, back and forth.

1243
00:50:16,560 –> 00:50:21,280
Randy Black: Because then what starts out kind of one way ends up what?

1244
00:50:20,940 –> 00:50:22,140
Randy Black: in a negative way.

1245
00:50:22,140 –> 00:50:22,540
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

1246
00:50:22,540 –> 00:50:26,940
Randy Black: Not going down that road, not gonna happen, ain’t gonna do it.

1247
00:50:26,940 –> 00:50:27,339
Coach Jim Clayton: Mm-hmm.

1248
00:50:27,339 –> 00:50:28,940
Randy Black: And that’s the big thing right there.

1249
00:50:28,940 –> 00:50:30,619
Randy Black: So you gotta guard that.

1250
00:50:30,619 –> 00:50:34,220
Randy Black: And you gotta put that guard up there and say, Nip, knock, knock, who’s there?

1251
00:50:34,220 –> 00:50:35,579
Randy Black: Not answer.

1252
00:50:36,800 –> 00:50:42,000
Randy Black: You know it’s like certain people call you and you’ll pick up the phone.

1253
00:50:42,000 –> 00:50:43,040
Randy Black: Yep.

1254
00:50:43,040 –> 00:50:44,400
Randy Black: Other people call you.

1255
00:50:44,400 –> 00:50:45,680
Randy Black: Yeah, do I really want to answer?

1256
00:50:45,680 –> 00:50:46,800
Randy Black: I’m picking up that phone.

1257
00:50:46,800 –> 00:50:47,440
Randy Black: Yeah

1258
00:50:48,099 –> 00:50:50,740
Randy Black: If they really want to call back they’ll leave me a message.

1259
00:50:51,140 –> 00:50:52,339
Randy Black: Or send me a text.

1260
00:50:52,339 –> 00:50:52,740
Randy Black: Yeah.

1261
00:50:52,740 –> 00:50:54,579
Randy Black: Then I’ll read it, then I’ll decide.

1262
00:50:54,579 –> 00:50:55,540
Randy Black: Right.

1263
00:50:55,540 –> 00:50:57,780
Randy Black: So I can’t call everybody back.

1264
00:50:58,420 –> 00:50:59,859
Randy Black: I’ll be on the phone

1265
00:51:00,140 –> 00:51:01,900
Randy Black: 24 hours a day.

1266
00:51:01,900 –> 00:51:03,500
Randy Black: Not that I don’t want to.

1267
00:51:03,500 –> 00:51:04,299
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

1268
00:51:04,859 –> 00:51:08,859
Randy Black: But some of them, you know, if it’s important, they’ll leave me a message.

1269
00:51:08,859 –> 00:51:11,819
Randy Black: If it’s something I really like and it’s positive, guess what?

1270
00:51:11,640 –> 00:51:12,200
Randy Black: Call them back.

1271
00:51:12,520 –> 00:51:13,000
Randy Black: Yep.

1272
00:51:13,000 –> 00:51:13,960
Randy Black: Oh waste my time.

1273
00:51:13,960 –> 00:51:15,480
Randy Black: Remember I told you I don’t waste my time.

1274
00:51:15,480 –> 00:51:16,920
Randy Black: Oh well I can’t tell you that yet.

1275
00:51:16,920 –> 00:51:20,520
Coach Jim Clayton: Well, it leads right into what this next thing is.

Randy Black: We all we all do.

1300
00:52:21,599 –> 00:52:24,319
Randy Black: We look back and go, man, that was a big I didn’t get nothing out of that.

1301
00:52:24,319 –> 00:52:25,680
Randy Black: That was just a pure waste time.

1302
00:52:25,680 –> 00:52:26,799
Randy Black: But guess what that was?

1303
00:52:26,799 –> 00:52:29,200
Randy Black: That’s a learning situation.

1304
00:52:28,920 –> 00:52:30,760
Randy Black: That’s a growing situation.

1305
00:52:31,160 –> 00:52:36,440
Randy Black: So the trick is learn if you the first time you make a mistake, it’s a mistake

1306
00:52:37,280 –> 00:52:39,040
Randy Black: You learn from your mistake.

1307
00:52:39,040 –> 00:52:42,240
Randy Black: The second time you make that same mistake, it’s a choice.

1308
00:52:43,600 –> 00:52:45,200
Randy Black: And it’s what we are.

1309
00:52:45,120 –> 00:52:48,000
Randy Black: We all are our choice.

1310
00:52:48,000 –> 00:52:48,640
Randy Black: Yes.

1311
00:52:48,640 –> 00:52:55,040
Randy Black: Every day, every second of every year, every month, forever.

1312
00:52:55,040 –> 00:52:56,320
Randy Black: We are our choice.

1313
00:52:56,320 –> 00:52:57,280
Randy Black: Yes.

1314
00:52:57,660 –> 00:53:01,580
Randy Black: But again, it comes down to this.

1315
00:53:01,580 –> 00:53:04,860
Randy Black: People know it when you say it to them.

1316
00:53:05,420 –> 00:53:10,380
Randy Black: But it’s not embredd in their brain, which means they don’t know it.

1317
00:53:10,700 –> 00:53:12,060
Randy Black: Because they’re not practicing

1318
00:53:13,320 –> 00:53:16,760
Randy Black: And actions speak a whole lot louder than word.

1319
00:53:17,160 –> 00:53:18,520
Randy Black: But what are people good at?

1320
00:53:18,520 –> 00:53:21,720
Randy Black: Sitting behind that phone with that thumbs, word word, word up.

1321
00:53:25,180 –> 00:53:27,900
Randy Black: Oh, they’ll talk crap behind your back.

1322
00:53:31,980 –> 00:53:32,780
Coach Jim Clayton: Keyboard warrior.

1323
00:53:32,780 –> 00:53:37,099
Coach Jim Clayton: The people who sit there and they’ll say all these things and post it on social media or

1324
00:53:37,200 –> 00:53:43,599
Coach Jim Clayton: They’ll send a message to somebody knowing that I don’t have to look in the I don’t have to look them in the eye and say this, so I’ll just say whatever I want.

1325
00:53:43,599 –> 00:53:45,520
Coach Jim Clayton: The keyboard warrior.

1326
00:53:45,520 –> 00:53:46,800
Randy Black: It’s so funny.

1327
00:53:46,800 –> 00:53:50,720
Randy Black: When you start out, people will say, Who are you?

1328
00:53:51,000 –> 00:53:55,000
Randy Black: Well when you get really good at something, they’ll go, How are you?

1329
00:53:55,000 –> 00:53:55,960
Coach Jim Clayton: Yes.

1330
00:53:55,960 –> 00:53:57,160
Randy Black: Big difference in that.

1331
00:53:57,160 –> 00:53:57,400
Coach Jim Clayton: See?

1332
00:53:57,720 –> 00:53:59,480
Randy Black: Because they look at you a different way.

1333
00:53:59,480 –> 00:54:00,120
Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah

1334
00:54:00,059 –> 00:54:00,619
Randy Black: Okay.

1335
00:54:00,619 –> 00:54:09,339
Randy Black: So I look at the people now that go, man, when you started this 33 years ago, that wasn’t gonna work, it’s not gonna work.

1336
00:54:09,339 –> 00:54:09,980
Randy Black: Well

1337
00:54:11,080 –> 00:54:14,200
Randy Black: I see him now and they go, man, that was the greatest idea ever.

1338
00:54:14,200 –> 00:54:16,760
Randy Black: I mean I knew it was gonna see I already know that.

1339
00:54:17,320 –> 00:54:21,160
Randy Black: I don’t need that pat on the back to know what I’ve done

1340
00:54:21,240 –> 00:54:25,800
Randy Black: I just look at all the all the memories, all the things that walk out.

1341
00:54:25,800 –> 00:54:28,520
Randy Black: And I always tell you my goal every day.

1342
00:54:28,520 –> 00:54:29,240
Randy Black: Every day.

1343
00:54:29,240 –> 00:54:32,200
Randy Black: Still a goal today when I walk out of here.

1344
00:54:32,200 –> 00:54:35,720
Randy Black: Or am I better walking out?

1345
00:54:35,580 –> 00:54:36,940
Randy Black: Than when I walked in.

1346
00:54:36,940 –> 00:54:40,300
Randy Black: Now I take that personally for me and I share that with the kids.

1347
00:54:40,460 –> 00:54:42,620
Randy Black: Are you a better player walking out than he walked in?

1348
00:54:42,620 –> 00:54:43,020
Randy Black: Yes.

1349
00:54:43,020 –> 00:54:44,860
Randy Black: And you know what you call that?

1350
00:54:44,640 –> 00:54:45,599
Randy Black: Successful that.

1351
00:54:45,599 –> 00:54:46,079
Randy Black: Mm-hmm.

1352
00:54:46,240 –> 00:54:53,440
Randy Black: And the most successful people in the world, they take one, turn it into two, three to four to five, six, seven.

1353
00:54:53,160 –> 00:54:54,200
Randy Black: Turn into a week.

1354
00:54:54,200 –> 00:54:55,880
Randy Black: Four weeks turns into what?

1355
00:54:55,880 –> 00:54:56,440
Randy Black: A month.

1356
00:54:56,440 –> 00:54:58,280
Randy Black: Twelve months turns into a year.

1357
00:54:58,280 –> 00:55:00,120
Randy Black: And they just keep the cycle going.

1358
00:55:00,120 –> 00:55:00,600
Coach Jim Clayton: Yes.

1359
00:55:00,600 –> 00:55:02,280
Randy Black: And it never stops.

1360
00:55:02,280 –> 00:55:02,920
Coach Jim Clayton: Never stops.

1361
00:55:02,920 –> 00:55:04,680
Randy Black: It’s kind of like compound interest.

1362
00:55:04,680 –> 00:55:05,400
Coach Jim Clayton: Mm-hmm.

1363
00:55:05,400 –> 00:55:07,640
Randy Black: When it’s working for you.

1364
00:55:07,000 –> 00:55:07,720
Randy Black: It’s great.

1365
00:55:07,720 –> 00:55:09,240
Randy Black: It’s a beautiful thing.

1366
00:55:09,240 –> 00:55:10,600
Coach Jim Clayton: Well, it’s working against you.

1367
00:55:10,600 –> 00:55:12,680
Randy Black: Oh, Lord Almighty, son.

1368
00:55:12,680 –> 00:55:13,880
Randy Black: It ain’t that great.

1369
00:55:14,040 –> 00:55:14,280
Randy Black: Right.

1370
00:55:14,440 –> 00:55:16,520
Randy Black: So what are you gonna do about it?

1371
00:55:16,620 –> 00:55:18,700
Randy Black: That’s the end of the conversation.

1372
00:55:18,700 –> 00:55:20,620
Randy Black: So don’t let people distract you.

1373
00:55:20,620 –> 00:55:22,620
Randy Black: Don’t let people steal your thunder.

1374
00:55:22,620 –> 00:55:25,260
Randy Black: Don’t let people tell you what you can’t do.

1375
00:55:24,960 –> 00:55:34,080
Randy Black: Okay, because can’t is just another word for lazy and most people that can’t do things, they don’t want to do them because they’re lazy and they just pick on the people that can’t.

1376
00:55:34,080 –> 00:55:34,640
Coach Jim Clayton: Right.

1377
00:55:34,760 –> 00:55:36,200
Randy Black: And don’t let that happen.

1378
00:55:36,200 –> 00:55:41,240
Randy Black: Just don’t turn that dowel on your radio, W-E-A-K radio, the sound that brings you down.

1379
00:55:41,560 –> 00:55:43,000
Randy Black: And we ain’t going down

1380
00:55:43,420 –> 00:55:45,260
Randy Black: We’re going up because why?

1381
00:55:45,260 –> 00:55:47,180
Randy Black: That’s where all the room is.

1382
00:55:47,180 –> 00:55:47,660
Coach Jim Clayton: Exactly.

1383
00:55:47,660 –> 00:55:52,620
Randy Black: And when I get to the top and I’m not there yet, boy, I hope I’ll see you there.

1384
00:55:52,620 –> 00:55:53,900
Coach Jim Clayton: Nice.

1385
00:55:53,440 –> 00:55:57,520
Coach Jim Clayton: So real quick, let’s recap real quick what we’ve talked about today.

1386
00:55:57,520 –> 00:55:59,359
Coach Jim Clayton: Um these are from my notes here.

1387
00:55:59,359 –> 00:56:03,119
Coach Jim Clayton: So it says uh what I’ve got here is that resilience isn’t

1388
00:56:03,620 –> 00:56:05,060
Coach Jim Clayton: just a natural trait.

1389
00:56:05,060 –> 00:56:07,060
Coach Jim Clayton: It’s something that can be developed.

1390
00:56:07,060 –> 00:56:09,060
Coach Jim Clayton: It can be strengthened over time.

1391
00:56:09,060 –> 00:56:15,220
Coach Jim Clayton: A lot of that is through experience, through learning, and through intentional practice.

1392
00:56:15,220 –> 00:56:16,820
Coach Jim Clayton: You have to build it up

1393
00:56:16,940 –> 00:56:20,619
Coach Jim Clayton: Uh resilience, though, it it can be undermined.

1394
00:56:20,619 –> 00:56:25,900
Coach Jim Clayton: Uh if we stretch ourselves too thin, if we lose sight of who we are.

1395
00:56:26,180 –> 00:56:36,900
Coach Jim Clayton: If we neglect those foundations that we’ve built to keep us strong, the you know, the things that we talk about in those four pillars, mentally, physically, socially, and spiritually.

1396
00:56:36,740 –> 00:56:39,700
Coach Jim Clayton: we can uh easily undermine what we’re doing.

1397
00:56:39,700 –> 00:56:46,020
Coach Jim Clayton: And the good news is that mentally strong people have habits that we can all adopt.

1398
00:56:45,760 –> 00:56:55,920
Coach Jim Clayton: From learning to pause under pressure, choosing uh solitude over the noise, uh pain as motivation, and and focusing on what truly matters.

1399
00:56:55,760 –> 00:57:02,080
Coach Jim Clayton: Those are the things that can help us to learn to be resilient, to develop that resilience.

1400
00:57:02,080 –> 00:57:04,240
Coach Jim Clayton: So here’s what I want our listeners to do, Jim.

1401
00:57:05,099 –> 00:57:10,700
Coach Jim Clayton: I want them to pick a habit from the show today that they want to strengthen.

1402
00:57:10,700 –> 00:57:11,099
Coach Jim Clayton: Okay.

1403
00:57:11,260 –> 00:57:14,460
Coach Jim Clayton: And I want them to take a step toward that this week.

Coach Jim Clayton: Yeah.

00:58:06,640 –> 00:58:08,080
Randy Black: So that’s the big thing.

1425
00:58:08,080 –> 00:58:08,560
Randy Black: Okay?

1426
00:58:08,640 –> 00:58:14,080
Randy Black: It’s like when I send messages to players, excuse me, what do you think about this?

1427
00:58:14,080 –> 00:58:16,000
Randy Black: And they send a heart button.

1428
00:58:16,480 –> 00:58:19,040
Randy Black: That one that was a question which required an answer.

1429
00:58:19,200 –> 00:58:20,960
Randy Black: I didn’t know what to say, Coach.

1430
00:58:21,120 –> 00:58:22,800
Randy Black: Well, it’s a question is opinionated.

1431
00:58:22,800 –> 00:58:24,160
Randy Black: There’s no right or wrong answer.

1432
00:58:24,160 –> 00:58:24,640

00:58:37,660 –> 00:58:40,620
Randy Black: Just like Randy said, he’s a keyboard a keyboard warrior.

1441
