Motivated 2 Live!

Sherman Armstrong coming to speak with my players was the highlight of the year for our program so far! My players were able to learn so much from him in just one hour. One part of Sherman's interactive talk that stood out to my players was the portion of the talk that focused on mastery. Sherman explained to my players that in order to master a skill, you need to put in maximum effort, constantly learn, and understand that mistakes are okay. The majority of my players are new to the sport of basketball, and they would often become disappointed if they messed up on the basketball court. Sherman's talk showed these girls how important it is to view mistakes as learning opportunities. I will make sure my players learn to celebrate mistakes and grow as opposed to focusing on the failed attempt. If you are a coach who is seeking to bring in someone who will impact your players for the better and change their outlook on life, Sherman Armstrong is the person you need to come work with your team. It is a competitive advantage to any coach or player who has the privilege to learn from not only a great person, but someone who has experienced the highest levels of success!

Mr. Armstrong has spoken to our group over ten times in the past few years. His ability to connect with each audience, while also challenging them to think reflect on their own actions, leads to tremendous results. He displays energy and passion while relating to student-athletes in a unique way. At the conclusion of our most recent session, we had several student-athletes wait after to speak directly about the content. Highly recommend Mr. Armstrong for speaking engagements.
