The number 1 career killer in real life and sport

I ran across a couple articles on LinkedIn that apply just as well to young athletes on sports teams.  I am sharing this article from Suzy Welch because it is what she labels the Number ONE career killer for adults.  It is exactly the same for athletes careers:  Boss Hating.  In the case of young athletes, it is coach hating.  The quickest way to find your recruiting career fizzle out, is to be a coach hater.  If you are always questioning your coach, or complaining, coaches notice, and none will want you, no matter how talented you are.  This is why we coach the way we do.  We teach life lessons through basketball so that we can prepare our young athletes for productive lives.  Learn these lessons now through sports, and you will find yourself far ahead of the competition when your sports careers are finished.
