A 4 Year Old Has Got Boom?
This is About Practicing EXCELLENCE!
July 31 is the deadline to get in on our Fitness Contest. For the past 4 weeks I have been presenting this opportunity for referees and, true to form, the percentages have followed this contest as well.
What percentages???
Life is a Bell Curve. Here's how it goes...
The bottom 50% are just along for the ride, and some of them want a free ride (those people won't even get up off the couch, put down their remote, and do something -- I asked 75 referees to be a part of this...only 30 raised their hand, so that puts the "non-hand raisers" in the bottom 60% = OUCH!!).
Of the top 40% "hand raisers", only 15 have actually TOOK ACTION and stepped forward to get those Bigger and Better games ( so the ACTION people are in the top 20%).
Of the 15 people, I asked them to send in a before and after photo, measurements, and set up a plan. We have now sorted everyone down to 8 people...they are in the top 10%.
Here's the 10% Club = Neil Missling, Kevin Cassidy, Jim Jarvis, Mike Diebold, Phil Stodgell, Nick Bradshaw, Cameron Voss, and Nick Dornfeld (there are two guys in Duluth, MN rocking it, too!)
You know what...these guys are working their butts off. I LOVE IT!!!
Here's what these guys understand about practicing EXCELLENCE...this is a part of an article written by Dan Kennedy, that I have copied for you. Pay close attention to the part about ASSOCIATIONS (not ref associations, but the "crowd" you hang out with):
"EVERY population divides roughly into 1%, 4%, 15%, 40% and 40% groups. Many more at the bottom than at the top...
YOU may choose to move from one group [in life - in our case, a league, level, or playoffs] to another by "moving" your ambition, thinking, acquisition and use of information, initiative, effort. But regardless of your choices, the fact that the majority of your peers are dead-wrong won't change a whit. For the most part, where a particular person gets to in this continuum from the top 1% to the bottom 40% has much less to do with differences in genetics, upbringing, education, opportunity or luck than it does decisions. Associations matter a lot, but they are or can be chosen. The first critical decision for upward movement is ALWAYS distrust the majority. It's not an easy decision to make. It's even harder to stick to. To see a majority stampeding north and stubbornly turn south. Not easy at all. To remember that whatever "everybody" is infatuated with you should spurn, a damnably difficult task."
The top 1% of ALL officials refereeing hockey in the United States are in the NHL, AHL, ECHL and NCAA Div 1 College. That's about 260 refs out of 26,000.
This isn't about getting you to the Pro's or College. This is about practicing EXCELLENCE.

Girls Kick Butt! -- The Goals You Have Determine the Work to Get There
Right?
That's my assumption. I highly doubt that you are sitting around at your house, or you woke up this morning, and said, "I wish someone would ask me to join a Fitness Contest today!"
I highly doubt that you are that much into physical fitness that would be wanting such a thing. That's my other assumption (you know what they say about people who assume???).
However, permit me the opportunity to work with you and I will help you get those bigger and better games. Here is just a small sampling of what others have said about the programs:
"JB i have started my workout process... I am putting it on the line hear, i will be transformed into a great official... I am going to put forward every effort on this, like i stated in a different email... I will stay in touch and u do the same, Thanks again JB for helping me on this."Brandon G."JB, Thank you so much, that is great news!!! I plan on being apart of the new challenge.
You just made my day!! Thank you so much, I won't disappoint...Thank you for getting my name out
there, now I'll have to do the rest!!"Shane P."I have seen quite a few power skating instructors in my life and JB was by far the most dynamic in his delivery; giving a wide variety of instructional methods and being able to demo them to a tee. You can tell that his passion for the game reflects in his instruction."Chris Allman
Why do they push themselves? Why do they seek instruction and guidance? For the exact same reason that I choose to push myself = I want to experience the "high" of working in front of 19,500 fans again...I want to experience the satisfaction of receiving the email that you have been selected to work the semi-finals...I want to experience the feeling of "doing my best" and "a job well done."
It's not about the exercise. It's not about the supplements. It's not about the plan. It's about what it can get me. That's the same reason there are (2) girls up at Grand Forks, ND kicking butt on all the guys up there...they want [bigger and better things].

say, "I want In!"
and become a part of something Bigger and Better for you!!!

Data - Why It Should Mean a Hill of Beans to You
I've got your stats...loads of them! Want to know how many times you will typically sprint up and down the ice? Want to know how often you'll stand still out there? Want to know what are the most common face off locations? Want to know what are the most common stoppages in a game (like goalie freezing the puck, etc)???
You probably don't. You just want to work Bigger and Better games. Don't blame you...I do, too! I want that feeling of having 8,000 people crammed into the State Fairgrounds Coliseum again. I want that feeling of working on T.V. again. I want that championship game again. And so do you...that' why you work the games. You love it and you want more.
How can you get there? How can you get on T.V.?
Data will help. It's a start...come along for the ride. If you haven't told me you are in for the Fitness Contest yet, what are you waiting for? Don't you want those BIG games?
