I came across this on Pinterest and I just love what it has to say. It definitely applies to coaches but really to anyone in a leadership position whether it be in business or in ministry.
Bottom line. You are never going to please everyone. So quit trying.
You have to do what you think is right, what God calls you to do, what is best for the team and not worry about what people might think.
And remember, parents are focusing on their child alone. They do not see the big picture. And in my opinion, they are the worst part of coaching. So take advice/criticism with a grain of salt and move on.
If you need to make adjustments, make them and if not, press on.
And I'll leave you with a little humor...in the words of Chandler {yes I am a Friends junkie}...
Learn to laugh at yourself and with your fellow coaches. Sarcastic comments are what get you through at times. ;)
Goodluck at your games this weekend!!
