Leaving it all out on the field is a phrase that has been used forever on sports teams, companies and schools. It’s a bit cliche for the most part, but at the core of it, the message is on point and the best way to be on a day to day basis. This place of giving it your all, is where happiness and contentment are found.
It’s also very individualized and depending on who you are talking to, may conjure different responses both positive and negative. It’s up to you as a leader to know who to push and how when it comes to this concept. It’s also on you to lead by example and do the same, if you aren’t all in, people will be hesitant or resistant to do the same. As it was said by Julius in Remember the Titans, “Attitude reflect’s leadership, captain.”
Your effort and engagement sets the bar for what the team will shoot for, if you set the bar low, they will aim low. It’s on you to leave it all out there every day and every project. Work hard. Play hard. Everyday.
