Success Leaves Clues: Nick Saban’s Leadership Lesson #10

This week is Nick Saban’s Leadership Lesson #10

Teams must take ownership of themselves and their personalities.  The most successful teams have a culture where all the members have a say.

Team – this is why I teach leadership to empower YOUR leadership! 

Humbling myself as your CEO, the success we have seen in the last 3+ years is not because of me. Instead, it’s because of YOU and your leadership development. 

Situational authority is at the foundation of this philosophy.

Meaning many times “boots on the ground” teammates have the best insight to make decisions. And/or at the very least need to have space to provide feedback. 

Therefore, as an organization, we need to continue promoting a feedback culture so everyone feels empowered to lead.

That’s my vision and focus and appreciate your massive help in continuing this culture!

(MM) The GOAT 🐐🐐 150 150 Bryce Henson

(MM) The GOAT 🐐🐐

Happy Monday!

This last week was very bittersweet for my family as both the US and Brazil exited the World Cup. And specific to the Brazilian side, their biggest country rival Argentina just claimed the World Cup yesterday in dramatic fashion.🇦🇷

In many ways, a tough pill to swallow for my Brazilian wife Coach Tatiana and family as “futebol” is a religion in South America.💊

Although in fairness, it was special to watch greatness.🔥 

As the 5 ‘7 magician Lionel Messi who grew up in Argentina and spent his adult life in Spain scored 3 goals in the match of his career to help his nation knock off France to win the 2022 FIFA World Cup.🏆

Simply amazing and with his storied career and an incredible amount of European championships already under his belt..

This will solidify him to most as the Greatest of All Time in the World Game aka The GOAT 🐐🐐 

I don’t know about you, but while I wasn’t happy to see Argentina win, I personally respect and admire greatness. 

Hats off to Messi and Argentina..👒

And that reminds me of you today. 

In life, like in the World Cup, there will be some big moments that come up that your family & loved ones need you.🤗

Please be honest with yourself as there will be a need.

What’s even more urgent?

This day is likely coming quicker than you think!

My question to you is are you putting the reps and sets like Messi? 

Are you preparing your mental and fitness to be able to support them?🤔

My friend, there will be a moment that arises when your family relies on you.💯

My hope is that, like Lionel Messi, you will have prepared so you can rise to the occasion and be the GOAT for your family.

The time is now to get prepared. 

My team and I can help.💪

Success Leaves Clues: Nick Saban’s Leadership Lesson #9 150 150 Bryce Henson

Success Leaves Clues: Nick Saban’s Leadership Lesson #9

This week is Nick Saban’s Leadership Lesson #9

Sometimes what is best for the individual is not what is best for the team.  

The goal of a leader is to align-self & team interests in as many opportunities as humanly possible. 

However, sometimes it’s not. 

When this happens, the dichotomy of leadership holds true for effective teams and leaders. 

Yes, it’s incredibly challenging. But a leader must put the group’s interest in front of self-interest to ensure the team wins.

That goes for everyone in the organization as everyone in our organization leads.

(MM) The power of acceptance 150 150 Bryce Henson

(MM) The power of acceptance

Happy Monday!🙌

Last week I had a therapy session with my “mindset coach” Dr. Kevin. He is a brilliant therapist with a lot of life & clinical experience. 💥

I have been seeing him off and on since 2016. 

He is also featured on this Wednesday’s Fit Life Orange County podcast episode as I just interviewed him so stay tuned!🥳

Anyway, I’m currently working through a personal issue right now that is out of my control. 

Yes, I can influence the outcome to a certain extent. But in this specific situation, the complete result is not controlled by me.

The Issue?  

It’s something I find important.🎯

The Bigger Issue?

I don’t control the outcome.💯

Dr. Kevin’s answer? 

Acceptance.⚡️

Frankly, that’s not the answer I wanted to hear as it goes against many of my personal beliefs on my ability to positively affect the outcome with enough focused energy. 

However, taking a step back, there’s alot of truth and wisdom in his coaching.

The dichotomy of life is knowing there are many things you can influence so you need to take action where you can. As candidly, too many people play the helpless victim.

But on the other side of the coin.. 

You also must understand in life that some things are completely out of your control so in these situations, you must practice acceptance.  

Wisdom is not confusing the two. 

Need a helping strategy?

This is the prayer I practice at my alcohol support group which is another way to ground the message. I trust it will help you as it’s done for me.👇

“God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference.”

Success Leaves Clues: Nick Saban’s Leadership Lesson #8

This week is Nick Saban’s Leadership Lesson #8

You must trust, not just believe.  Belief is trust that is firm.  Are you willing to put your success in someone else’s hands?

Trust is hard to come by. But it’s the foundation of strong teams. Without trust, a team cannot be effective. 

How to earn trust?

Make and keep promises. Rinse, repeat, and don’t stop.

[MM] Tradition & Competition (The World Cup) 150 150 Bryce Henson

[MM] Tradition & Competition (The World Cup)

Happy Monday!🙌

The FIFA World Cup is upon in the case you have been watching. If you haven’t, this is the world’s game & tournament that happens every 4 years.💥

This year has been especially interesting as there has been some controversy on the host location of Qatar for reasons outside the scope of today’s message. 

Sadly for our American squad, they matched up against a very tough Netherlands team and got eliminated over the weekend.

Although I am still hoping for my 2nd team (Brazil) playing in a few hours who is my favorite this year. 👊

My Brazilian wife Tatiana, her family and I are excited!

In reflection around the tournament, there are 2 big takeaways that I wanted to share which have applications for your fitness, business and life. 

These are 1) tradition and 2) competition.👇

  1. Tradition. Tradition can be incredible for establishing rich culture, efficiency, consistency and success. In the fitness and fat loss world, we call traditions routines. As executing a strong & consistent tradition (routine) is the only way long term you will find results. 
  2. Competition. Competition makes us all better as everyone needs a push. In fact, this is why we have local, state, national and world competitions to create positive pressure to propel us forward. This is the same with your fitness & fat loss and why we create a few Transformation Challenges throughout the year to produce incredible client results through the power of friendly competition!

Looking ahead, please apply these 2 principles of the World Cup to your life and watch your fitness grow!

Having skill is not having talent.  Brilliant!  Coach Saban says, “Skill alone does not equate to talent.  Talent is putting skills into productive use.”

Success Leaves Clues: Nick Saban’s Leadership Lesson #6 150 150 Bryce Henson

Success Leaves Clues: Nick Saban’s Leadership Lesson #6

This week is Nick Saban’s Leadership Lesson #6

Do not allow mistakes to go uncorrected.  You must evaluate the previous game and ensure mistakes are corrected for the upcoming game.

This is the value of having a feedback culture.

No, it’s not easy giving candid feedback to your team especially in pointing out opportunities to improve. But your primary job as a leader is to get the team better, not be over-sensitive on hurting feelings. 

Yes, continue to develop you’re soft interpersonal skills so the feedback you provide is better received by your team. But ultimately, your job as a leader remains to provide feedback to those you lead. So do your job.

[MM] Results, Relationship, and Community 1024 768 Bryce Henson

[MM] Results, Relationship, and Community

Happy Monday!🙌

The 3 pillars of Fit Body are on my mind this Monday morning.

They are Results, Relationships, and Community.✈️✈️

Yes, we pride ourselves on driving results for our clients. We also focus on creating a platform to foster both relationships and community.

This was evident on Saturday evening as we hosted our Annual Fall Client Celebration event at the Irvine Spectrum.

We had 50 of our amazing clients and team in attendance. We celebrated their success and fostered deeper relationships and community in the process.💥

It was a great time of eating, bonding, and connecting which is also a good analogy for happiness.🥳

As Humans derive happiness from living healthy, setting & achieving goals, and creating long-lasting relationships. 👊

In fact, if you look at the happiest people, they are abundant in these 3 pillars of their lives. 💯

So my message today is to focus on your health & fitness.

Focus on being a person of value to others. Foster deep relationships and be a productive member of our community. 

When you do, you will achieve the happiness you deserve!🙏

Let’s make it a great week!

Success Leaves Clues: Nick Saban’s Leadership Lesson #5

This week is Nick Saban’s Leadership Lesson #5

You can have no flickering lights.  The torch must be fully lit when passed from the upperclassmen to the underclassmen.

This mindset and standard shows the importance of your whole team being bought into and having a deep understanding of your mission, vision, and values.

While team training should never be tribal. Culture is shared and passed down through the organization.
