Trent Shelton | Becoming The Greatest You
Bestselling author Jon Gordon talks with former NFL wide-receiver turned life coach, Trent Shelton. A few takeaways from this episode: Make sure you are a reflection of what you say you stand for. Give yourself permission to be great. Your job is not your identity. You are more. My hardest times have built my strongest faith. The plan I have for my life might not be the bigger plan God has. Your worth isn't found in external things. Trust the process. Enjoy the journey. There is a purpose in your pain. Every day brings a chance at a new beginning. It all starts with a choice. Don't have a BC mindset (blaming and complaining). Focus on what you CAN control. Let go of everything else. Focus on ONE change that you can control. One change today leads to another change tomorrow. ABOUT TRENT: Trent Shelton is a former NFL wide receiver that is now considered one of the most impactful speakers of this generation. He reaches over 50 million people weekly through his various social media outlets, and also travels the world to speak his message of creating lasting change in your life.

Coach Brendan Suhr | Creating Buy-In and Being the Best Coach in Business, Sports and Life
In this episode of Positive University, bestselling author Jon Gordon talks with Coach Brendan Suhr, one of the most respected figures in basketball with nearly 30 years as a coach and executive in the NBA and 13 seasons as a coach at the collegiate level. Jon and Coach Suhr talk about Creating Ultimate Buy-In, Maximizing Talent, Bringing Out the Best in Others (and Yourself), Being the Best Coach in Business, Sports and Life… and much more. This message applies to leadership, team building, coaching, parenting and any area of life where you lead others. A few takeaways from this interview: There's no limit to hard work. If you want to be a winner, you have to be willing to do the work. You can't skip steps. Value the sacrifice. It helps you become and develop into the person you need to be. Be open and willing to learn. Never underestimate the power of relationships. Invest in others and have others invest in you. Your work ethic, enthusiasim and positivity can surpass almost anything. Be comfortable enough to have greatness around you. Hire the best people possible. To be a good coach you must learn to connect with people. Internal leadership is important for an organization to grow. The lost art of holding each other accountable. To create Buy-In you have to create Believe-In (value others opinions, don't tell them everything to do, let them contribute). Take personal responsibility. Don't try to always blame others. What is your role in it? Shout praise, whisper criticism. Don't just tell people what they should do. Show them how. When someone makes a mistake, correct the behavior. Don't berate the person. Command and Control is the old way. It's now about Seek to Connect. To develop people, you have to be connected to them. Your credibility and competency contribute to buy-in. You people have to believe in you to buy-into what you're saying. If you're not learning from those you lead, you're doing it wrong. The notoriety of a coach comes from the execution of the players. It's never about you. It's about your team, your employee, your child, or whomever you are responsible to lead. About Brendan Suhr: https://coachbrendansuhr.com/ | http://coachingulive.com Coach Brendan Suhr is viewed as one of the most respected figures in basketball with nearly 30 years as a coach and executive in the NBA and 13 seasons as a coach at the collegiate level.

Coach Brendan Suhr has a passion for developing effective leaders. His extensive background in the coaching world spans over 45 years as a coach and consultant who specializes in coaching, leadership, team building and culture. His expertise in the coaching world is accompanied by his ability to teach those in leadership/management positions to coach and develop the people they lead, this includes an extensive background with one of the most challenging parts of our athletic teams and workforce today: Millennials.

Super Serve them. Communicate proactively, deliver things before they are asked for, etc. Failure is not permanent. If you are going to make it, you have to embrace that. I want to uphold the good. I want to be the truth teller, even when it is not easy. Staying Positive is a choice. You have to decide to do it every day... even when you are tired, even when you don't want to. Give more than you receive. You can tell if someone is just doing it for the money or the mission.

If you really want to make a difference, Create a Culture of Radical Generosity. Do things the right way even if it's the hard way. There is a difference between mission and vision and succeeding in both areas requires different approaches. 42% of American's don't trust charities. 100% of every penny raised from people for charity: water goes to help people directly.
Michael Lombardi | Winning Championships and Building Teams
In this episode of Positive University, Jon Gordon and Michael Lombardi talk about building great teams, creating a culture of success, developing better leaders and an inside look at building dynasties in the NFL. About Michael Lombardi: Michael was most recently on the coaching staff for Bill Belichick in the New England Patriots' front office, after thirty years working for the San Francisco 49ers, the Oakland Raiders, and the Cleveland Browns (where he was general manager for two years). He writes for The Ringer and his top-ten sports podcast, GM Street, is on the Bill Simmons's podcast network. He is also the author of the new book, "Gridiron Genius: A Master Class in Winning Championships and Building Dynasties in the NFL." https://amzn.to/2DxlqzM A few quotables: The leader sets the culture. Creating the right culture is important for consistent success. You can't outsource the culture. It must be lead by the leader. Great leaders unify their team. You can't be a winning team without being unified. Make sustainable decisions, not just solution based solutions. Think long term, not just short term. If you want your organization to grow, the leader must lead and coach the other leaders. Great leaders are always adjusting, always growing, always trying to get better. Honesty matters. A leader's integrity enables trust and a good relationship with their team. It's about the team. It's not about you. Scout your team from the inside out, not just the outside in. Who they are matters.
George Raveling | Getting Better Every Day
In this episode Jon Gordon interviews Coach George Raveling. Quoteables below. George, in his 80's at the time of this recording, is a living legend.

Coach Raveling has held head coaching jobs at Washington State, The University of Iowa, and USC. Following a prolific basketball coaching career, he joined Nike at the request of Phil Knight, where he played an integral role in signing a reluctant Michael Jordan. He's also been inducted in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame as well as the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame. During this conversation George shares his perspective on winning in sports, business and the game of life... as well as a fascinating story of how he came to possess the original copy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech. Connect with George on Twitter @GeorgeRaveling or at CoachGeorgeRaveling.com A few quoteables from this interview: Some people say "I don't have time." No, all you have is time. It's how you prioritize your time that matters. The problem is… we get into WHO is right and WHO is wrong vs WHAT is right and WHAT is wrong. Don't be so focused on winning on the court that it blinds you from helping those you coach win off the court. The minute you think you've won, you've lost. - Phil Knight Every day I remind myself I am traveling on a path to BETTER. I ask myself every day: "What did I do today to make myself a better person today than I was yesterday?" I've always had this theory that, if you help enough people get what they want, you'll always get what you want. Information = Knowledge Knowledge = Wisdom Wisdom = Opportunity

Learning how to fail and recover from failure is imperative for long-term success. Don't fight change. Be willing to evolve. Seek to get better every day. Negotiation isn't just about dollars and dominating. It's about connection, relationships and authenticity. You have to get clear on what matters most to you. You have to define success within the framework of what matters most to you. After you are clear on what matters most, then you need to have the discipline to execute within the framework of your clarity. Ask yourself... How do I show up as my best self in all my roles? ----- Molly Fletcher is a female motivational speaker, keynote speaker and former sports agent determined to inspire game changers and inspire positive change.

Kelli Masters | From Fear Driven to Purpose Driven
Bestselling author Jon Gordon talks with sports agent Kelli Masters. Kelli shares her journey of going from fear driven to purpose driven (and how you can do the same). A few quoteables from this interview: Don't ever let someone tell you that you are not enough. Focus on what makes you different because that's what makes you great. People ask me how I've grown my business, the answer is one relationship at a time. Under promise and over deliver. Be honest. Tell people the truth, especially when you don't know the answer. Social networking isn't just about LinkedIn or Facebook... it's about developing real relationships with others. You must have a picture of where you are going to help keep you stay anchored during tough times. Your team doesn't have to all think alike but they must have a shared vision and purpose. Fear is best overcome through action. You usually have to step out before the courage comes. Speak life. Encourage others every chance you can. ---- Kelli Masters is widely recognized as one of the most influential women in sports business. She has represented more professional athletes than any woman in the industry, having served as agent/contract adviser to players in every NFL draft since 2006 as well as numerous players in the MLB draft.

Marshawn Evans Daniels | Purpose - Believing Bigger - Live Bolder
In this episode of Positive University we're sharing a special message from bestselling author and reinvention strategist, Marshawn Evans Daniels. A few quoteable takeaways from Marshawn include: We are created on purpose, with purpose from a place of purpose for a purpose. If you don't know your purpose, you're not alone. You have to FACE IT to FIX IT. We're taught retirement instead of reinvention. We're taught to pursue success instead of significance and careers instead of calling. Don't get sick with the disease, the Disease to Please (other people). Who you decided to be isn't always who God designed you to be. Believe bigger. Don't believe the label that's a fable of who you really are. Labels often limit. Do you have the Purpose Tug? That feeling like there is more? There's a reason (because there is). Every Life Shift first begins with a Mind Shift. Your life is not your own. What can you do to serve others? Believe bigger. Live bolder.

Tony Dungy | Tips for Life, Teamwork and Success
Tony Dungy is a father of ten, author, retired NFL coach, and National Spokesman for @AllProDad. In this episode of Positive University, Jon Gordon talks with Tony about life, teamwork and success. A few quoteables from Tony include: Life is like a movie. You don't know how it's going to end. What you see right now is just a snapshot. A moment (good or bad) doesn't have to define you. A team with a common bond working for a common purpose is hard to beat. When you're playing for each other vs yourself, you're more likely to win. Who can we help? Look at it like you're helping someone vs just being their boss. Your job as a leader is to help those you lead to get better. Often you don't know it at the time but the adversity you face now is training you for a better future tomorrow. Success to me is doing everything you can do with the skills and the gifts God gives you.
