Built to Last: On Patience , Process & Performance

In this episode of The Daily Coach newsletter in audio form, we explore patience, resilience, and leadership through the lens of sports and high performance. First, we examine Nick Saban’s transformation from urgency to presence, inspired by the question: Are we too impatient to be intelligent? Next, we unpack the New York Mets’ 2024 season turnaround, highlighting the importance of trusting long-term strategies. We then turn to UConn’s basketball star Paige Bueckers, who silenced critics by staying true to her work ethic, and finally, we analyze the New York Jets’ struggles—not as a hiring issue, but as a failure in building a strong operating system. Whether leading a team or navigating personal growth, this episode challenges you to rethink speed, strategy, and success. Not a subscriber to The Daily Coach newsletter yet?
